Last week, my boyfriend and I took a quick trip to southern CA. We went to see some friends in San Diego and then up in Los Angeles for a day. And over the course of three nights of dinners out, I had some drinks. And man I AM FEELING IT. I don’t drink alcohol […]

Tropical Detox Green Smoothie Key Image

Read more 

Let’s talk green smoothies. More specifically, tropical green smoothies. One thing I think we’re all looking for when we reach for a green smoothie is to just feel a little bit better, right? And no matter what kind of green smoothie it is– we usually want to feel healthier, lighter and more energetic after drinking […]

how to make an acai bowl at home

← Read more

When you’re craving something sweet, but you want to do something awesome for your health and energy levels- an acai bowl is where it’s at! A magical bowl that’s packed with antioxidants, vitamins, and healthy fats that taste like ice cream?! Yep- this actually exists. I’m not sure when my love affair with acai bowls […]

Cacao Peanut Butter Smoothie

Read more 

Did you used to mess with a chocolate milkshake as a kid? I definitely, DEFINITELY did. My dad was kind of an expert chocolate milkshake maker. He had this whole process involving chocolate ice cream, Hershey’s syrup, Nesquik, an ice cold stainless steel cup, and a special spoon (which he named “MY SPOON). His milkshakes […]

Bubble Gum Smoothie Bowl

← Read more

Yes, a bubble gum smoothie is really a thing and it’s insanely good! I’ve made this about 4 times over this last week and I still can’t freaking believe that it’s made with dragonfruit and banana. What’s dope about that is that dragonfruit is loaded with fiber and nutrients. So you’re getting that bubble gum […]

anxiety reducing, magnesium boosting smoothie

Read more 

  This green smoothie will get you through the most hectic, busiest, super stressful times of the year. I like to start up my days of a holiday party/dinner/etc with a giant green smoothie for breakfast. (I started drinking this over Thanksgiving weekend for breakfast each morning.) You might be tempted to skip food all […]

ENERGIZING RAW MANGO SMOOTHIE (VEGAN)

← Read more

  Have you ever fallen into the I-need-coffee-in-the-morning-to-function rut? If yes, me too! And that’s really not fun (and almost annoying) to be completely reliant on a stimulant to wake up. So, if you’re game, I have a challenge for you. Try this three ingredient (five minute) smoothie for breakfast for five days straight without coffee. […]

vegan protein ice cream

Read more 

  If you eat a plant-based diet, you’ve probably been asked where you get your protein from(or you’ve seen memes about it). This question can seem a little crazy to plant eaters, because protein comes in so many different plant forms. Beans, quinoa, peas, chickpeas, and leafy greens are just a few sources. If your diet is a […]

raw mint chocolate chip smoothie

← Read more

  This is a rockstar drink for summer mornings. It’s refreshing, energizing, minty, and packed with healthy carbs. Feel free to pack it with as many bananas or as much fresh water as you want!

chocolate cherry green smoothie bowl 2

Read more 

  I always feel fantastic after eating greens in my smoothies. I’m not sure if it’s the hit of nutrients from the greens or the instant hydration, but if you can add them to your mid-day smoothie, do it! This bowl is unique in that it does not taste green whatsoever. The chocolate and cherries are a great […]

pomegranate-acai-bowl

← Read more

My love of the acai bowl was probably born out of my love for ice cream. After I stopped eating dairy a few years ago, I discovered that pretty much any frozen fruit can be converted into “ice cream” with the right blender. I use a heavy duty Vitamix, but a food processor will work.  You can also […]

goji berry superfood smoothie

Read more 

Happy Friday! Let’s talk about how good this superfood smoothie tastes for an early Friday morning breakfast. Refreshing, energizing, and filling, this baby leaves you feeling ready to take on whatever lies ahead of you for the weekend. Hopefully that includes some fun things?! Superfoods (including blueberries, kale, and acai berries) win their super title […]

mango ginger smoothie bowl

← Read more

I’ve mentioned before that I would rather eat my breakfast over drinking it. Enter the smoothie bowl, which you can pile high with bomb-ass toppings like gluten-free muesli, fresh berries, and sliced banana. If you’re in the same eat-over-drink breakfast camp, add more frozen fruit to your smoothie and get down with the smoothie bowl! I’ve been on a mango […]

HEALTHY digestion smoothie 1

Read more 

Every time I eat mango, I notice how filling it is. (I also notice how ridiculously good it is!) That satiated feeling can be attributed to fiber, which the fruit is packed with. This fiber, along with water content, helps with digestion and keeps your system running in tip top shape. Plus, mango contains a substantial amount of vitamin C (hello glowing […]

peanut butter and jelly smoothie

← Read more

I’ve been on a smoothie kick lately (see my papaya, kiwi, and blueberry muffin creations) and today’s recipe is no different. I typically like to start a weekday with a fresh smoothie full of tasty frozen fruit that will keep me carbed up throughout the morning. They’re also quick, easy, and perfectly portable. Today’s drink is a play on the […]

papaya smoothie

Read more 

Are you into papaya? I never really was just because of my lack of experience with it. The few times I tried it, I wasn’t crazy about the semi-mushy/mealy texture. Feeling experimental recently, I decided to pick one of these tropical fruits up when I saw them hanging out at Trader Joe’s. I then realized I have […]

pineapple kiwi smoothie

← Read more

This yummy tropical smoothie has been a go-to of mine recently as the weather gets warmer and I’m craving anything cold, fruity, and liquid. I added maca powder in the drink, which is a Peruvian superfood that provides an awesome hit of energy (among other benefits). I highly recommend this nutrient-packed powerhouse powder, however, if you don’t […]

blueberry muffin smoothie

Read more 

Smoothies are awesome. (Blueberry smoothies are even better!) They’re a great way to pack a ton of nutrients into a meal that’s portable, tasty, and perfect for the morning when you’re running out the door. Or, if you’re in the mood to eat rather than drink your meal, you can add more frozen fruit and decrease the […]

chocolate cherry protein smoothie

← Read more

I’m starting the week with a recipe for my favorite post-gym drink as of late. I always try to get a great dose of protein after a muscle-strengthening workout, whether that’s barre, lifting (never really happens), or something else. If you’re eating a plant-based diet, clean vegan protein powder is an option for feeding your muscles […]
