{st. paddy’s day green vitamix smoothie}
17 Mar
it’s been a while since i wrote a vitamix post!! green smoothies are always fun, and this is fitting for the holiday. this week i decided to do a short cleanse. partially in honour of the moon, partially in honour of the upcoming solstice, and partially because i have been eating donuts almost every day for breakfast for about 2 months… not even kidding. *ahem* anyway, i was super excited to bust out my vitamix again!

{vitamix juice w/ dates, pears, green lettuce}
31 May
i threw a lot of random stuff in this one…. {choosing organic where possible}
– 1 small clementine, peeled
– 1/2 pear, stems and seeds included
– 2 pitted dates
– a few banana slices
– handful of romain lettuce
– orange juice
– almond milk
– some raw protein powder
you just never know what colour to expect… but the taste is always amazing!
i’m a huge fan of using dates for sweetening. usually all you need is one or two per 12 oz. serving. they are inexpensive and the vitamix can handle it! just make sure to buy pitted dates! the lettuce flavour was a little stronger in this compared to good ol’ spinach, but i had run out so i had to replace *something* green… 😉
have a great weekend!

i use mine every day, and i find new ways to use it and it never gets old… Continue reading
{drink the rainbow! – “pineapple island dream” vitamix juice}
10 Apranother good one… i’m hoping all of these tropical-type drinks will convince nicer weather to stick around, instead of more snow! {we got another 6 inches or so here in colorado – boo!}
– frozen pineapple
– fresh mango
– fresh kiwi
– coconut milk
and if you want, throw in a little frozen banana…
this one is a nice balance of sweet and tart, it’s very refreshing, and makes me want to be on the beach!!
and it also needs a little umbrella…
