Smoothie bowls are a meal within themselves. That's why I like them. They are also perfect for the summer.

Mango Strawberry Smoothie Bowl
Wednesday, April 4, 2018
I was thinking of adding in a fun food portion to the weekly blog posts. Recipe Wednesdays! Where I share small recipes I've been trying, with you.
This week I'm sharing a delicious smoothie bowl recipe that taste amazing. love a good smoothie bowl. I can add crunch or salty toppings and still enjoy a smoothie.
BASE:
- Frozen Mangos
- Frozen Strawberries
- Plain Greek Yogurt | I like plain yogurt so that I can sweeten my smoothie with a natural sweetener like maple syrup or honey
- Water | I use water because it's less fat than using a sugary juice or milk. It still taste amazing using water. TRUST ME!
SWEETENER:
- Maple Syrup | This is a good alternative for a natural sweetener. It doesn't have those added sugars and It also has great health benefits from Antioxidants to helps protect skin health.
- Cinnamon | Cinnamon has so many health benefits from anti-inflammatory properties to may help lower cancer risks. Look up more benefits of cinnamon. And it adds a great taste
Blend Together Your Base And Sweetener And Add Your Toppings!
TOPPINGS:
- Fresh Raspberries
- Sunflower Seeds | Sunflower seeds are one of my favorite snacks. I love the crunch and the salty flavor it adds.
- Cinnamon
- Bananas Would also taste amazing with this

Mixed Berry Yogurt Bar Pops
Thursday, August 31, 2017
Ahhhh Summer is Almost Over! Can you believe it?? Well ..summer may be almost over but I have a sweet treat to share with you today! I'm such lover of sweet things! I like anything sweet, especially yogurt bars. I always buy the ones from the store (that are in the ice cream section) but then after reading the ingredients I thought, well... I could probably make my own with the same items I make my smoothies with. Which is what I did. I made these super super simple yogurt bars. And of course after I make them I go on pinterest and find even more awesome recipes for yogurt bars. Which I will definitely be using in the future, But I am very happy and proud of my little bars and they taste so delicious. Perfect for this heat that we currently have in Arizona.

Hey!
Who doesn't love watermelon, I know I do! It's perfect for summer and a family BBQ. Which, there will definitely be a lot of this summer. Its super easy to make and you'll definitely be hooked. Blending watermelon into the perfect drink makes it even better.
Then I blend until slightly smooth. Then I add some sugar (You can put however much to you liking) This is also when I add my lemon. Then i blend again until all smooth.
*If you don't like small seeds I suggest straining the watermelon juice separate. I don't mind it so, I left it in.

My Top 6 Flavored Water Recipes
Tuesday, June 20, 2017
It's summer time and this heat is not going anywhere. Can you believe we
reached over 120 degrees this week in Arizona! Talk about being hot and
sweaty. Living in Arizona my whole life, I've always loved water. I
especially love a good flavored water, one that I've made myself and I
know whats in it. Today I'm sharing my top 6 favorite flavored water
recipes. I hope you enjoy and try them yourself.
I always start with prepping my fruit and making sure I triple wash it. For the fruit with a thick skin (oranges, limes etc) I use a little scrub brush to make sure its really clean. I mean this is going into our water right.
I also poke small holes into my fruit to help the infusion process( I hope that's a word) lol
My Flavored Waters
1. Strawberry and Mint
2.Cucumber Lemon
3.Orange Lime
4. Strawberry Orange
5.Cucumber Strawberry
6. Mint Lemon
I fill my mason jars with ice then I add the fruit. You can also use any cup or jar or water container. After I add water and close it up.
Allow your water to sit for 30minutes to an hour to let those wonderful flavors really infuse.
You'll be left with these delicious waters, that taste amazing and perfect for summer!
P.S. The strawberries may tint your water a little
Until Next Time
XOXO
