healthyness

This year, along with the rest of america, I wanted to try to eat healthier and take care of my slowly but inevitably deteriorating body. And poor Steven has had to deal with my obsessive nutritional craze. Gym memberships, large grocery bills, my whining over lack of chocolate, and garbaging of his heart-disease-in-a-box frozen pizzas... all within two months of being married. He's a trooper!

After a couple nutrition classes, and countless hours researching recipes and snacks on the internet... I'm finally getting into a healthy buying and eating routine. Here's a couple of my healthy favorites I've tried and loved so far.

Breakfast: Strawberry Banana Gronola Yogurt

I use 1/2 cup chobani's vanilla flavored greek yogurt

drizzeled with some honey

added some granola with dark chocolate chunks

and some sliced bananas and strawberries

yum.

Breakfast/Snack: Monster Smoothie (*that actually doesn't tast like ogre poo)

I found the recipe through pinterest HERE.

1 frozen sliced banana
*I added about 6 frozen sliced strawberries
1 Tablespoon peanut butter
1/2 cup 0% Vanilla Chobani Greek yogurt
1 cup Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Breeze (or other kind of milk)
4 cups baby spinach (or more, or less)

The thing I love, is that a lot of the recipes I'm finding call for the same ingredients... lots of fruit, vegetables, greek yogart, almond milk, etc... so I can use the seemingly random grocery items for lots of healthy meals! And that's all for now. Happy weekending!
