Apple & Banana Protein Shake

Posted on January 5th, 2009.

When I’m in a rush, I LOVE mixing up a protein shake so I can fill up on something healthy rather than grabbing an unhealthy alternative. Of course, there is no substitute for good old HEALTHY foods like fruits and vegetables, so 95% of the time I add at least one of these to my [...]

Drink Your Vegetables

One of my favorite ways to get plenty of veggies in my diet is to DRINK my vegetables! (Before you gag…keep reading.) There are so many variations on tasty spinach shakes and although they turn out to be a weird green color - they taste OH SO GOOD!
