Day 11 Love Your Greens

What a fun day!  This was the first time we have had the smoothie at a different time of day and also using almond vanilla milk.  The whole family went to breakfast at Neufeldt's.  We went to the Salem Saturday Market and bought my mother-in-law a bouquet of flowers.  We went to LifeSource for the food fair.  I probably shouldn't have had such a big breakfast because there was a lot to sample at the food fair.  The kombucha was delicious.  The grilled tofu and beet and carrot salad were excellent as well.  It was a hot day and hard to wait in line but we did it.  Plus we made a stop at Trader Joes for some chia seeds, flax, and almond milk.  I am starting to sound more like healthy hippie food nut every day.  I had a gift card or else I would have passed on chia seeds for another time.

Today's smoothie we made in place of dinner salad.  It was an apple cinnamon smoothie.  It had me at cinnamon.  I knew this one was going to be delicious and it was.  Here is the recipe I used- 2 cups of almond vanilla milk, kale and spinach mix, 3 apple pieces frozen, 2 1/2 bananas, and 1 1/2 tsp of cinnamon.  It tasted like a apple pie milkshake.  It might be my most favorite.
