1/2c frozen black grapes.
2c baby spinach
3 stalks/leaves of beet greens

Cleanse me!!!! I was feeling under the weather. I’ve been neglecting my green smoothies for quite some time. Today is a new day and I’m making a promise to myself to have one daily especially through the hustle and bustle of the holiday (and germy) season to keep my immune system up to its best!!!

1 cup filtered water.
2 celery stalks
1-1.5 cup pineapple
1/4 Lemon
handful of curly parsely.
1-2 cups of kale or spinach. Here I used lacinto (aka Tuscan) kale and the regular (not sure what exactly it’s called!) kale.
​1T wheat grass powder

Blend all in a Vitamix or other high powered blender.

This is not your today's smoothie, but it was just too good not to share!

makes about 2 large (3 smaller) servings.

For the sauce:
1 can coconut milk
1/2 red onion, chopped (no need to dice) or use 3 shallots.
1 head garlic (not peeled)
1/2 cup of unsweetened almond milk (or more coconut milk)
1-2 heaping cups of nutritional yeast
sea salt, pepper and garlic powder to taste.

For the Noodles:
1 large sweet potato, peeled and spiraled using a spirilizer
4 large handfuls of Kale or Spinach


Start by chopping end of garlic head. Drizzle EVOO inside, wrap in foil or cover in a dish w foil and roast garlic on 400 for 35 minutes.

Add a little EVOO to a pan and sautéing the red onion or shallots for a couple minutes.

Add in the full can of coconut milk. Stir until smooth

Add in nutritional yeast, salt pepper and garlic powder... stir. *may want to add extra for more creaminess

Add almond milk or a little more coconut milk to make more creamy.

Simmer for about 15 minutes to let flavors marinate.

Add sauce to blender...blend until smooth.

While sauce is in blender, add EVOO to sauce pan and sautée the kale or spinach until almost wilted.

Add spiraled Noodles.

Remove garlic from wrapping. Add 1/2 of the cloves to the pan. The other half to the blender and blend sauce again.

Once sauce is blended, pour over Noodles and greens until your desired amount ** you will have extra sauce, so no need to use it all **

Mix well!

Enjoy this amazing dish!!

Happy New Year!!!

Today's Smoothie is one on my favs. Adding a different kind of "milk".

2-4 handfuls of baby spinach

1/4 cup of steel cut oats (soaked overnight in water, then drained before adding to smoothie)

1 frozen banana.

Blend all in the Vitamix or other powerful blender!

SOUL - it's not a drink filled with juices or flavors.  It's a little 2oz packet of non-GMO seeds that have been cold pressed, preserving the seed's total nutritional potency.  

• Black Cumin seed - a powerful anti inflammatory
• Black Raspberry seed - raspberries are among the top ten high antioxidant fruits and vegetables, which help to fight free radicals that cause damage at the cellular level.  
• Chardonnay Grape seed - antioxidant and anti inflammatory benefits, which may support cholesterol and blood pressure already in the normal range.  

The combination of these 3 seeds is yields a synergistic effect, multiplying the benefits of each!!  
They have been lab tested and proven to reduce inflammation at the cellular level by 33%!!

If you care about your health and want to heal your body from the inside out, I challenge you to try this amazing product.  The health benefits are unmatched.  
I personally take Soul and/or Core every day.  My 3 year old also drinks Soul.  He's getting the best absorbable nutrition possible, that he isn't getting from his every day diet!
I don't take vitamins - they are filled w/ synthetic ingredients and additives, and also the body has a hard time absorbing them!  I get my nutrients from whole foods and these whole seed products.  Think about it - food comes from seeds - the purest form of nutrition!!

The key ingredient in today's smoothie?! BASIL!  

1 handful of fresh basil, or 1 cup measured
1 thumb size nub of fresh ginger root
2 large cups of baby spinach
1 cup water
1 banana
1/4 lemon
4-5 drops of liquid stevia (less/more to taste)

Blend all in a Vitamix!

I was on the road today traveling for work, so I didn't have time to make my daily green smoothie.  This little pouch is packed with pure green goodness! It's called CORE. It's a concentrated shot of Kale leaf, chlorella, spirulina, wheat grass, dandelion, aloe vera, chloryphyllin.  This shit is amazing.  This is the green 'sister' of the SOUL product I posted the other day.  These amazing, ingredients come from whole foods and are processed in a way which doesn't affect the bioavailable nutrients from the actual plant - meaning your body can absorb them and benefit tremendously from them.  All green foods are anti-inflammatory, so if you don't eat them enough, try this product.

It's like drinking 4 or 6 of my own green smoothies a day!  So, if you don't have time to make a smoothie, or even go shopping for the ingredients, I wholeheartedly recommend this product.  Get your nutrients so you can begin to heal your body, or even keep your body healthy from the inside out!!

For more information, email me or to purchase CORE or SOUL, click here.

This little 2oz pouch has a whole lot of punch!  A friend of mine was distributing this for over a year now, and I was intrigued for a while... given that she believed so much in this stuff, the limited, actual whole seed, ingredients and the power it packs in it.  She's a holistic health coach as well, and we share the same values with regards to the things we put in our bodies!

So, I finally gave it a try... So far it's been 2 weeks that I've had 1 pouch each day.  At first I didn't recognize any significant change... But then last night it was later in the evening, and as I'm vacuuming the kids' play room and straightening up, it hit me!  I had real energy!  Normally, I save cleaning and straightening up for the weekends, while possibly taking a 5 hour energy shot or a cup of espresso (yes, a whole cup!) to give me that extra push.  But not this past week was any of that needed!  I had consistent energy and alertness.  I wasn't sluggish or tired or spiking in energy or crashing... It was consistent.  And the best part is, I don't have an issue falling asleep.  I honestly FEEL great too. It's bizarre - but in a really good way!  I really do my best to eat the best things, including my green smoothies... But sometimes, I'm not able to with time constraints or I just run out of ingredients and can't get to the store.  This little packet of Soul is just an amazing addition to my (mostly) healthy lifestyle.

I seriously wish I had this as a new mommy!! This totally would have helped me get through those long days.  

However, this product is NOT just about having more energy... It's a concentrated supplement of essential amino acids and antioxidants from whole seeds - the most pure form of nutrition!!  It's an anti inflammatory and so much more... 

If you're also intrigued to learn more about this seed based nutritional product and other products, click here, then go to "products".  If you're interested in purchasing, you can buy it at retail for $85 for a month's supply, or subscribe & save for $65.  Please feel free to contact me for more info!!  It's really amazing and I want everyone to just try it out!  You won't be sorry!
