ALONG THE MEADOW

A smoothie a day.

July 16, 2020 · In: recipes

One of my favorite ways to pack a lot of good nutrient dense foods into my kid’s bodies is through smoothies. We all have one every afternoon (myself included) to help tide us over until dinner and hit those nutritional goals for the day. There are so many different variations of smoothies that you all likely won’t get bored of them!

I’ll list below a couple of our favorite smoothie recipe and then some suggestions of different ingredients you can combine to come up with your own. Don’t be afraid to experiment and get creative. I’ve been able to disguise all kinds of nourishing ingredients without my kids ever knowing!

Servings 1 serving

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 banana
  • 1 cup frozen berries wild blueberries + strawberries
  • 1/4 cup frozen mangos
  • 1 Tblsp local honey
  • 1 Tblsp ground flaxseeds
  • 1 Tblsp ground chia seeds
  • 1 cup oat milk

Now for the fun part, a list of ingredients for you to be inspired to create your own smoothie at home!

  • oat milk
  • coconut water
  • honey
  • ground flaxseeds
  • ground chia seeds
  • almond butter
  • cocoa powder
  • goji berries
  • collagen powder
  • Young Living’s multi greens
  • bananas
  • frozen berries
  • frozen mangos
  • frozen pineapple
  • kale
  • carrots
  • celery

A new favorite recipe has been 1/2 banana, honey, carrots, 1 celery stalk, mangos and pineapples with a scoop of collagen powder. If I have bananas going bad I chop them up in put them in the freezer but I usually use fresh bananas in our smoothies because so much of everything else in there is frozen. Try to have some fresh and some frozen ingredients in your smoothies. If you use all frozen your blender will have a hard time blending it well.

I celebrated St Patrick’s Day with an iced Match I celebrated St Patrick’s Day with an iced Matcha latte…just kidding I make one everyday! But it did feel a little bit more festive today. ☘️ Matcha is full of antioxidants, anti-inflammatory properties and an amino acid called L-theanine that helps to reduce anxiety. It also gives me an energy boost without the jitters! 

Iced Matcha Latte 
• 1 tsp Matcha green tea
• 1 cup milk of choice
• 1 cup ice
• 1-2 tsp honey
• sprinkle of cinnamon (personal preference) 

Add Matcha to a small bowl and pour warm water over it. Whisk to remove clumps. Pour into a glass with milk and ice. Add honey and cinnamon. Enjoy and Happy St Paddy’s Day! 🌈
Lately I’ve been meditating on what art is and w Lately I’ve been meditating on what art is and what being an artist means. I’ve concluded that art is everywhere, from keeping a home, baking bread to working with plants. Artists aren’t just those who paint or write but those that make the world more beautiful in whatever capacity they can. Would you agree? #mondaymotivation
Flowers 🌸 in your salad just makes life better, Flowers 🌸 in your salad just makes life better, don’t you agree? This one has Chickweed, Dandelion petals and Redbud blossoms from the meadow. Sprinkle with sea salt, pepper and a drizzle of olive oil and vinegar. I’ve been loving @acidleague Strawberry Rose Living vinegar on my spring salads lately! 😋
Did you know that Maple seeds are edible? They are Did you know that Maple seeds are edible? They are rich in Omega 3,6 & 9, protein, vitamins and minerals. Just peel off the outer cover and you’ll find a little seed pod inside. The seeds can be bitter so either boil or roast them. I’ve heard that they’re good mixed into mashed potatoes! What wild edible food have you tried lately?
