RED VELVET CHOCOLATE CREAM SMOOTHIE

 Breakfast, Snack, pre-workout or dessert; Soy/nut/gluten-free, raw, alkaline

Do you have addictive tendencies?  I mean really, are there any must-haves in your dietary regime? 
Come on now- it’s confession time and yes, I’ll go first. My addiction is smoothies.  As much as I advise my clients on the importance of variety I almost always default to a smoothie at breakfast for it’s a perfect way to power-pack my body with numerous nutrients including both veggies and fruits.  And then of course there is that dessert-like aspect.   It’s like having an ice cream (vegan of course) sundae every day with all the various toppings we choose to garnish our creation with. 
What’s so grand about this addiction is there are endless sensational smoothie options. Here is one of the many I truly love from my Spring 2017 Plant Strong program.

RAW CACAO BANANA BUTTER SMOOTHIE BOWL, vegan heaven


  • Breakfast or pre-workout, dairy, gluten, corn and soy free, vegan, alkaline
There is such reward in engaging all the senses and when it comes to food and this is exactly what I love to do.  Besides creating ‘gourmet good’ tasting food I love for it to look amazing, smell great, and have great texture and be as nutrient dense as possible.  It's all ever so doable, as this recipe demonstrates perfectly.  When you top your smoothie bowl it’s an open slate. Choose your favorites and color your bowl pretty.  Finish it with a thinned out cashew butter or Sunbutter drizzle and you’ve become a gourmet good foodie artist.

  • Yield: 1 Generous Serving
  • Prep time: 5 minutes

GREEN VELVET, SQUASH n CINNAMON SPICE SMOOTHIE

  • Breakfast or Pre/Post Workout fuel, vegan, gluten-free, low-sugar, dairy-free, protein rich
There are some days when smooth comforting foods are an absolute necessity and at these times, frosty cool, velvety and creamy blends are my must-make.  While smoothies are most often on the menu to start my day it’s a combo like this that delivers the sense of a long held hug.  What makes it so?  
 A really long blast in the blender with extra ice so it stays cold yet is truly the texture of liquid velvet.  Once you taste test this for yourself I am confident you’ll know what I mean and may want it two days in a row.  Just garnish it different on day two.

  • Serves - 1 hearty or 2 smaller appetites
  • Prep time: 5 mins

The avocado is truly a celebrated fruit for most everyone and oh the endless ways to use them. Here is a remake on the proverbial McMuffin - you never eat anything McDonalds do you? That’s not food and once you’ve had ‘real food’ as the mainstay of your diet, there is zero temptation to eat foods like that ever. Not to fear missing out, however; this version of a McMuffin rocks, and you can customize it to suit your taste-buds.
