Room A203: Smoothies recipes from Green_Blender.com!

Hey BCU Family!

Health in ALL areas is a part of what BlenCouragesU.com is all about—spiritually, financially, mentally, emotionally and physically. I remember a friend of mine, Amy and I joking about going out “full”, meaning with every unhealthy food and treat imaginable! 🙂

Now, don’t get me wrong, Family, I LOVE my goodies and definitely eat them on the regular, I just try to get more of an 80/20 rule in most of the time. That means with the help of the Lord, I’m trying to eat a good amount of veggies/salad, protein and (play fanfare) a SMOOTHIE!!!!

Smoothies are a good meal replacement (for some), when I do make them, they enhance my meals and help keep me fuller longer. Plus, the sweetness helps curb the desire for the cake for awhile.

So, while Green Blender.com offers a very nifty smoothie service (read all about it here) , Jenna is gracious enough to offer some pretty dynamite smoothie recipes for you perusal or even to get them emailed to you FOR FREE!!!!! Some recipes have basic ingredients, some a little more different, so if you’re feeling adventurous, try out the newer ingredient. Otherwise, leave it or try subbing it out for something else–she usually explains what each ingredient does, so you can make an informed decision.

Take a look at the Smoothies link and see what wonderful things you can blend up! By the way,  this is NOT a sponsored/ paid endorsement. I saw, I liked and I shared. Now, please go check the site out and enjoy, ok? 🙂

 

Love,

 

BCU

Groovy Green Smoothies (again)

Hey family,

If you’re like me, you strapped on the feedbag on Thanksgiving..

and it’s been on ever since! As a result and since 2014 is fast approaching, you may be aflutter about eating better. Let’s make things easy, shall we?

In between the rolls, cakes and other assorted goodies, I’ve still been consuming my green smoothies. As a reminder, these nutrient-dense treats help to take the edge off the hunger and nourish you at the same time. It’s an easy habit to begin and you’ll actually start craving them once you start. Here’s a cool infographic to get your started..I use Almond Milk as my base, but you can use whatever works best for you. Experiment and enjoy!

Here’s to a healthier 2014!

Love,

Blen
