Batch Prep Smoothies

In my kitchen, meal prep used to mean several servings of a chia pudding and a freezer drawer of ready to use smoothie ingredients. My daily smoothies were elaborate and varied, but because I planned ahead and made my own smoothie packs, it literally took me one minute to …

Vibrant Protein Rich Pineapple Chia Pudding

Vibrant Protein Rich Pineapple Chia Pudding – this tropical fruit breakfast or snack is packed with essential protein, fats, flavor, texture and crunch!

Many of you know, I add spinach to lots of things. Waffles. Pancakes.

Good green.

So adding the vibrant green to my chia pudding? Totally normal.

I am back to chia pudding breakfasts lately. On a normal day, this is such an easy breakfast for me – I usually make one first thing and stick it in the fridge to ‘set’ while I enjoy my coffee. By the time I am ready for breakfast, the chia is ready and I can add banana, berries, granola, whatever sounds good that day.

In addition to the heart healthy omega 3 fatty acids, chia seeds are packed with antioxidants, minerals, protein, and fiber. When I was testing Fruit Sweetened Brownie recipes, I may have had extra fruit concentrates in my freezer. These were perfect to flavor my chia puddings – so versatile!

Loving these quick and easy chia pudding breakfasts…

Smoothie Saturday !

Happy Smoothie Saturday!

We have had a busy schedule lately, and smoothies have been our go to dinner on nights where we need a satisfying, complete and quick meal, or something to take on the go. During the extended snow and ice storms Portland has been experiencing, having a little bright tropical flavor is just what we need.

This Spicy Mango Tango Smoothie recipe is incredibly nourishing, with that spicy ginger we both love. (I may be heavy handed on our ginger in these.) Chia and spinach gives it the staying power I want from a smoothie, and the mango makes me giddy for our next visit to the islands. This …

Did you have a Lite-Brite when you were a kid? I loved mine. As a young beginner creative, those blank pages were my favorite.

I just cannot wait for the summer like temperatures to return, now that we’ve had a tease of the hotness. We are expecting overcast skies and rain all week here, but in our kitchen it is bright and summery and fresh.

You know how you make something and then just cannot stop the craving? and you end up making this thing over and over and…

yeah. I mean, that never happens here either.

In the afternoons when I need something light that won’t ruin dinner, I have one of these. In the morning after tennis, I add …

This post contains my astonishment that it is almost February, and a secret about my preferred dinner time. That and my Time Passing Astonishment? I am an old.

Happy weekend, and welcome to another Smoothie Saturday!

Last summer I was contacted by the folks at Ka’Chava, a superfood shake they call Tribal Superfood – The Whole Body Meal. I told them the same thing I always tell brands who want to send me product to review – that I will only share products I actually like and would use. I asked for a quantity that I could use for a month or more, to see if this would fulfill my expectations of a protein powder, meal replacement, second breakfast recovery, or snack.

They sent me tubs of both flavors, and I used it exclusively until it was gone.

I bought more.

I had Ka’Chava with me while traveling, it makes a great hotel breakfast. I often make a half serving in the afternoon, if I know we will be having dinner later than my preferred time of Early Bird Senior Discount Dinner In The Afternoon.

Ka’Chava boasts a long list of benefits: digestive health, sustained energy, mental focus, hunger control, lean muscle, and did I say sustained energy? The ingredient list is also impressive, with more than 60 nutrient-rich plants and super-foods, including chia, maca, amaranth, camu camu, and sacha inchi.

Ka’Chava is vegan, and free of gluten, dairy, soy, artificial sweeteners, flavors, colors, and preservatives.

The chocolate is my favorite, and it really is great alone, mixed with …
