Strawberry Kiwi

Sometimes I can be slow. As in, why did I not think of this combo WAY before now? Whatever. It tastes good. I will make it again!

Strawberry Kiwi
1/2 banana
2 skinned kiwis
1/2 cup frozen strawberries
1/4 c greek yogurt
3/4 c almond milk
1 T ground flax seed
1 T wheat germ
1 T chia seeds

It Isn't Easy Being Green

Everything green smoothie.  I needed inspiration today, couldn't think of a good smoothie. I looked in the fridge and pulled out everything green.

It Isn't Easy Being Green
1 Banana (okay, so not green!)
1 Cup coconut water
1 6oz container key lime yogurt
handful fresh spinach
2 peeled kiwis
1 cup diced honeydew melon
juice of 1/2 a lime
1 tsp barley grass powder
2 T hemp seed
1T ground flax seed
1T wheat germ
1 T honey

Very good. Can taste the hint of lime. Everytime I use kiwi, I feel a bit of tingle in my mouth. I think the blended seeds produce that effect. I don't get that feeling when I eat the kiwi whole. Anyone else?

Super Green

I made it to the gym! Finally! Hopefully I can go again tomorrow night. 
Started the day with a smoothie (before the gym).

Kiwi Green

2 peeled kiwis
1/2 c coconut water
1/2 an avacado
1 6oz container of key lime yogurt
1 T flax seed
2 T hemp seed
1 T wheat germ
 enough almond milk to make 4 cups blended.

My husband didn't even know the avacado was in there!

Lunch time: Post workout

Yummy. Can taste the vanilla from the protein powder.
