Here is my current lunch smoothie:
1 LARGE handful of spinach
1 handful of blueberries
1 handful of strawberries
1 banana
1/2 c. organic plain yogurt
1 Tbs. flax seeds
Maybe 2/3 c. of Almond Milk
Splash of water...enough to get it moving in the blender
Blend and drink.
Make one LARGE smoothie or two regular sized cups.
I obviously am drinking a LARGE amount...
but there was a tiny bit leftover that I put in the fridge for River as his after-school snack.
He loves this smoothie too!
Yay for healthy kids and healthy Moms!
Have a great weekend!!

P.S. Someone very special is turning 33 on Saturday.....
And even though he won't be rafting down the Salmon River like he was here last May....
which is, by the way, his own personal HEAVEN.....
We will probably grill out, bake him a cake, and give him lots of hugs.
He is our rock, our protector, our hero....
and I am thankful everyday that I have him by my side to go through this crazy life with.
When you blend this, does the blender crack the flax seeds? I had read in Jillian Michael's book that you want to have broken flax seeds other wise they just pass through your system and don't absorb? Just curious what your take on that is.
