Happy 2021! How are you feeling? Excited for this fresh start? Me too.
Some of you are probably knee deep in your first full week of a new diet, lifestyle shift, exercise routine, or daily ritual. I hope you are feeling good and empowered!
This year I am focusing on daily movement, creating more (for work and for fun), and continuing my goal from last year of managing my screen time so it feels healthy. We will see how these go!
This week I have decided to finally put a recipe to one of my favorite smoothies because, I would imagine, with a new year comes new, healthy foods for many of us and this smoothie is both healthy and delicious! It could be a new go-to recipe for you (and maybe make your new diet a lot more enjoyable).
This salted peanut butter and chocolate breakfast smoothie has all of the healthy greens and plants your body craves, while also being incredibly filling. If I’m having a smoothie as a meal, it’s important to me that it actually fills me up for a while. What good is a smoothie if you need to eat an hour later?
This one has a nice dose of healthy fats from the peanut butter and chia seeds, along with loads of fiber from the cauliflower (I know it sounds weird but I promise it works in this), bananas, and chias, so you will be nice and full well into the afternoon.
Enjoy!
