Berry Spinach Smoothie

 


Smoothies have become my go-to thing because there are often times where I am rushing and I need something quick to bring with me, smoothies have been that answer for me. With the correct recipes, they can be the most fulling thing regarding your taste buds as well as getting essential nutrients in your diet. You can have a smoothie as a snack, dinner, or lunch. It is convenient and versatile which is why I love them.  For many people who may not like eating vegetables, this could be the answer for that also. In all of my smoothies, I add ground flax seeds which help support cardiovascular health. The recipe that I will have below is for a Berry Spinach Smoothies. It may sound nasty to some, but do not knock it until you try it. I could be biased because I love spinach, but you may just fall in love. Enjoy!

The Ultimate Green Smoothie

Yes Yes, I know another smoothie in a mason jar. You will come to learn if you do not already know that I love smoothies and I love mason jars. They are both so convenient. This recipe is filled with vegetables and a little fruit. If you do not like vegetables unlike me this may not be the recipe for you or you can simply add more of the fruit and less of the vegetables. I also incorporated vanilla whey protein in this recipe so it can be used as a meal substitute for a busy morning or afternoon. I did try the chocolate whey protein and did not like it at all. In the previous smoothie recipe, I talked about incorporating flax seeds and why they are beneficial. I have added a picture of the flax seeds that I use below.

I was at a point where I thought this was it. Then I remember that every relationship needs constant redirection. Redirection doesn't mean starting over. Redirection doesn't mean that you have stopped, given up, or done something wrong. Redirection simply means you may need to do some readjusting. Often we stick to the same workouts and our body gets used to it. With workouts especially you must constantly evolve and do new things to challenge yourself. Once you do the same things over and over again it becomes easier and you now can do it like its nothing without sweating. With workouts, you always want to constantly challenge yourself. My redirection will consist of me going back to take a look at what I was doing then when I was losing weight compared to now. When I initiall...
