Green smoothie!

Warning!!!! This smoothie is so yummy your kids will even like it!!!!

I am not sure if there is a wrong way to make a green smoothie or not lol but I made one today I reall love! And all I used was fruits and vegis! No yogurt and no ice, nothing except fruits and vegis! 

I started this yesterday when I actually made some juice with my juicer, I was lucky enough to win my juicer from the Dr. Oz show or I probably wouldn't have it. 

I would highly recommend this juicer to anyone and you can find it at your local bed bath and beyond! But anyways I wanted to make some juice for a few days so here is the list of what I put in.

2 cups of organic spinach

2 cups of organic kale

2 organic apples 

2 organic oranges

2 star fruit

1/2 cup of fresh cranberries

This was just a bunch of stuff in my fridge lol and I didn't want to waste it. 

This morning I just put about 1 cup is my juice mix into my magic bullet, I added two small frozen bananas, and about 1 cup of frozen mango and just blended it very well.

I keep a lot of frozen fruit on hand and it works our great for the smoothies it makes them so thick and creamy I absolutely love it!!

I hope you enjoy my recipe if you try it! Feel free to leave comments with your own green smoothie recipe and I may try it and post it on my blog!!!

5 min 4 points

Looking to make a quick breakfast that is low in points? 

This took me literally 5 min to make and only added up to 4 point plus on weight watchers.

1 egg white

1 piece of lean ham chopped (1 pp)

1 bagel thin (whatever flavor they are all only 3 pp)

1 tbsp ketchup

 You can always add variation like adding some cheese for 1pp

Try adding some veggies like peppers and onions if you like but me personally I like it simple :) 

Quick and healthy breakfast

I'm trying to be a clean eater this year which isn't easy for me because I love bacon ad sweets and pasta! But I am trying! I have to say I rather enjoyed my breakfast this morning! It was healthy and tasty! 

I started off with a fruit drink because I was about to lose some strawberries. 

1 cup of strawberries 

2/3 cup papaya

2/3 cup of grapes

1/2 banana

1 tsp of ginger

The ginger is supposed to help you body absorb all the anti oxidants from the fruits and you can't even taste it!!!

I had a fresh papaya and some hand picked local strawberries so the flavor was so good! 

I was even lucky enough to get a good batch of bananas that had a lot of flavor. My grapes on the other hand were not that great but I didn't want to waste them, I am thinking next time I would leave out the grapes or wen austitute with blueberries or another fruit.

I even had a partner in crime this morning who was enjoying getting little bits of fresh fruit! She started of really well but by the end it was no longer eating more like smudging everywhere! 

I love my magic bullet, it only took about 1 min to whip it all together and audrey and I shared it as part of our breakfast! 

While the drink was yummy I need something a little more filling so I mad myself a little something extra.

1 bagel thin toasted

1 tsp peanut butter

1/2 banana

1 tsp honey

1 tsp chia seeds

Extra yummy and extra easy to put together! Best part was my whole breakfast was only 6 points plus values!

So if you are looking for something quick and good for you here it is! The fact it tasted good was just an added bonus!

Yummy breakfast with low pp!!!!

I have come to discover a quick breakfast that I love!!! Now it is only cereal but it's yummy and has low points plus value! I have to have something quick and easy with both kids especially since one is sick.

Even Audrey loves this cereal! It's only 3 point plus points for one serving! It would be so good with some fresh fruit but I am all out and in need of a grocery store trip! 

Life cinnamon is my new favorite cereal! And my secret breakfast weapon because it's filling, has a good taste, and take about 30 seconds to make for both Audrey and I.
