SUMMER CLEANING SMOOTHIE

1 ½ cups dairy-free milk
½ cup pea or broccoli sprouts
¼ teaspoon ginger powder
1 handful mixed greens
1 apple
3 kale leaves
½ lemon, juiced
cayenne pepper
ice

Blend all ingredients in your Vitamix or blender and enjoy.

 

What exactly will this smoothie do for me, you might ask?

Dairy-free milk such as Almond, Coconut, or Hemp Milk are loaded with vitamins, rich in protein, and are packed with minerals. Dairy-free milk is also cholesterol-free and easier to digest! Broccoli and Pea Sprouts are superfoods shown to have anti-diabetic and antimicrobial properties, improving kidney function, and killing cancer stem cells! Ginger and Cayenne Pepper act as anti-inflammatories! Cayenne Pepper also acts as an anti-allergen, anti-fungal, and antibacterial! The additional fruits and vegetables tie in this smoothie providing you with the ultimate cleanse for a healthier liver while riding your body of toxins that have been building up!

Want an extra boost? Add in a scoop of your favorite probiotic powder to aid in your gastrointestinal health while enhancing your immune system response! You can find probiotic powder at most grocery stores or health food stores!

Don’t make this a one-time thing! Make this “Summer Cleanse Smoothie” part of your daily routine! You’re on your way to a happy and healthier you! Trust me, your liver will thank you later!

Add those veggies! It so much easier to make a hea Add those veggies! It so much easier to make a healthy dinner when you have roasted a whole bunch of veggies. Last nite I made zucchini with scallion, carrots with parsley , tomato with garlic and it took me 5 minutes. Here is how to make veggies fast and tasty.
1. Pull all the veggies you have in the house that you can cook. Pick 3 to 4.
2. Chop everything into big pieces or keep whole.  3. Add to a bowl, add olive oil, salt and pepper. Get really crazy and peel some garlic to throw in. Put it all onto 1 or more oiled pans.
4. Roast the shit out of them. 375’ for 20-40 minutes is always a safe bet. You can always ask Alexa or google for that particular veggie. 
5. Have some right out of oven, taste the best!
6. Pack them into containers and save for tomorrow.
7. When hungry pull out some veggies, pour them into a pan to heat up. I like to top mine with a fried egg or avocado and salsa.
8. Enjoy! ⁣

Relationship and collaboration ! I say it all the Relationship and collaboration ! I say it all the time and I live it.  I was asked to be apart of this incredible fundraiser.  Because .. well I’m fab.... that and I have a relationship with @dishitgirldina  @jessica_dambra & @cmspiceculture , the hosts. No I don’t know them from my kids and have only met Dina in person. But when I’m booked on their show, I show up in top shape, create a fantastic segment and follow up with social media leverage. We all work as a “team”, tagging each other to get  out the content. ................The way I made it happen from the start was this.... I saw Dina was hosting a new local show and I reached out to her and the producer. The producer was excited for me to bring cocktails to the show. Nothing special, just people being people. What are you doing to create your next opportunity from your contact list?? Yes, right now!?!?? Nothing? Let’s talk, I bet you I will help you find more than one. .. ⁣
