Fresh Summer Smoothie - Recipe

It's summer, it's hot and our refrigerator has tons of fruit!

In blender combine ice, coconut water, mango, pineapple, banana and 1-2 inch piece of peeled ginger. (you can change the quantities to how you like, adding more coconut water to thin it out). Add in a little sparkling water for "fizz" - adults can add a little chilled champagne! Enjoy!

Beet Avocado Salad - Recipe

OK, so I was watching Giada the other day and she was making this salad, and I thought "I can make this so much healthier by keeping everything raw!"

Beet Avocado Salad: 
Arugula
2 Large Beets, chopped
Greens from Beets, washed and dried and chopped
2 Large Avocados, peeled and chopped
1 Onion, chopped
1 Large Granny Smith Apple, chopped
Approx 1/2 lb of wild caught Salmon, cook, season as desire, and break up into pieces
Raw, unpasteurized goat cheese (or vegan alternative)


Assemble salad, lightly drizzle with EVOO and S&P.....Enjoy!!


(although this is only a salad, it is VERY filling! You will be surprised!)
