A delicious fruit smoothie with kale!

made this as a way to get more protein in my diet as well as have a delicious snack

my delicious and healthy way to use up my aging bananas

Cool, refreshing, and decidedly healthful, this is my absolute favorite drink. I despise coffee, and I find this gives just enough caffeine in the morning to gently wake me without giving me jitters. I prefer it iced, but you could just as easily serve warm.

Some info about Matcha:
===================
Matcha is ground green tea leaves native to Japan, used in tea ceremonies there. You know the health benefits of green tea everyone has been raving about? 1 tsp of matcha is as beneficial as up to 6 tsp of brewed green tea leaves because you actually eat matcha powder instead of tossing it away after brewing.

Get yourself a decent matcha powder. Check your local asian supermarkets. Find a container sealed with a vacuum/nitrogen lock. Make sure it is grown in Uji for best quality. "Thin" Matcha is fine for this drink and other recipes.

Light and yummy. . .the perfect refreshing cocktail!

Home made Blackberry juice

I am a coffee fiend in the morning - it's gotta be organic fair trade french roast, carefully brewed in my Melitta one cup filter! But since I am now trying to avoid cow's milk & soy, and have long sworn off corn syrup and hydrogenated oils, my beloved SF hazelnut creamer is a thing of the past. Sigh. I have started trying to recreate it with ingredients I can eat, and this is my first attempt. Please do comment if you make this - I will be very interested in your feedback!

I make this to drink and it is delicious!
DH thinks it tastes like an almond joy!

Refreshing minty drink

This ends up a gorgeous beet purple smoothie. It's nicely sweet. I count this as 3 vegetable servings and 2 fruits (because I think a banana is 2 servings).

Made with the Mr Coffee Frappe Maker. You can use any coffee grounds you choose to brew with this frappe.
