Fruit or Healthy Green Veggie Smoothies?
As soon as I have my first cup of coffee and I am done with my morning rituals…I’m off to the magic bullet to prepare my breakfast smoothie. My recipe for an outstanding smoothie consist of Spinach, Green apple (seeds and all) which has protein in them. 1 banana, (frozen is better) celery, almond or oat milk, and ice. I also like adding ginger. So many options to choose from! Which do you choose sweet Fruit or healthy green Veggie smoothies?

So which is better? All fruits or all veggies or a mixture of both? In my opinion, I prefer the mixture of both because it gives it a natural sweet taste! Frozen fruit is fantastic! You can also add chia or flax seeds and if your not a vegan…honey! If you prefer spice…Cayenne pepper! ouch! I’ve tried it with this and it’s tasty, not to mention hot. Fresh Veggies are better in a smoothie too. I usually feel elevated and have my engine running after I have my breakfast smoothie and the magic bullet is amazing! I prefer the magic bullet rather then using a blender. It’s small in size so you can take it on holiday with no hassle and it makes great purees!
I work from home so it is essential I plan 15 minutes or so to make my smoothie drink to have energy throughout my busy day. I also have three other mouths that want one as well, and they all have different taste buds! If you have any outstanding smoothies you would like to share, I would love to listen on what you put in yours to get you through your day? Let’s chat.
I use my Magic Bullet and it works so good and its super easy to clean. Tropical Paradise On Earth: South Florida
South Beach, Miami. Ocean Ave. I am a bit partial when it comes to spending my vacations in sunny Florida, because I have memories of family vacations coming from freezing Boston Ma.! If your planning a vacation, two of my favorite places to visit in tropical paradise South Florida is Ft. Lauderdale and South Beach, Miami. If you have not been, my advice to you is to go at least once and take your favorite bikini or tankini and plenty of sunscreen. There is a lot to do besides hanging on the tropical beach all day. There are plenty of trendy restaurants, cafes and bars all along the A1A strip as well as Los Olas Blvd. https://www.instagram.com/ftlauderdalebeach/ One of my favorite cafes to visit while I’m in Ft. Lauderdale is Cafe Ibiza…https://www.instagram.com/cafeibizaflb/ The ambiance is oceanfront amazing! They serve an array of fresh seafood and Mediterranean dishes. There is a full bar if you feel like having a few cocktails with live music. Happy hour is all day long. You actually feel like your in Tropical Ibiza! So wear your favorite hat and get ready to take on the town. You do seem to see a lot of the classy ladies on the beach and a night out on the town wearing their fancy hats. I love mine, I have several in all colors.
Hugh Taylor Birch State Park
If you have a family you can go to Hugh Taylor Birch State Park which is nestled in-between the Atlantic ocean and Intracoastal. The scenery is wilderness nice and is great for relaxation and exercise. The kids will love seeing the tortoises and wildlife. Pack a family lunch with all the fixings and go kayaking! They have picnic tables to sit and enjoy, and it overlooks the water channel. Huge groups are also welcomed. Hugh Taylor Birch State Park is the perfect day to unwind and to breathe in nature. If your not an outdoors person you can use the Bro Elec Bug Zapper and carry it with you and still enjoy the outdoors.
South Beach Miami
South Beach Miami-the capital of Latin America is popping! Talk about class and authenticity….I love it! South Beach Miami is surrounded by water, yachts, mansions, palm trees and trendy bars, restaurants, shops and hotels. It’s very artsy with art decor buildings dating back from the 20’s! You like coffee? Try the Cafe Cubano AKA known as Cuban espresso, Cuban pull cafecito, and cuban shot. This will definitely get you moving! lol Now that you know about tropical paradise on earth….Do you think you will ever visit these places? I know I will. I would like to go even further south towards the Keys on the Island of Islamorada, which in due time I will, but for now this will definitely do! What are your some of your favorite vacation spots?
