After the Park Protein Fix

After a long walk to the Park (well seems long when you are 34 weeks pregnant-actually just 15 minutes each way) we needed some PROTEIN and Calcium to restore us to our natural state:)

We started off with some Kashi Crackers and Natural Balance Peanut Butter....

Then we had a refreshing Almond Milk Smoothie/Slush

Amazing Almond Milk Smoothie/Slush
1 cup of Almond Milk
1 cup of your Favorite Frozen Fruit (I used a Tropical Fruit Mix this time)
1 teaspoon of ground Flaxeed (optional)

Blend it and eat with a spoon or mix better to drink!

Almond milk is LOADED with VITAMIN E, Calcium, Vitamin D. and a ton of other vitamins plus no saturated fat. Get your Almond Mil on!

It sure got a smile out of my little man!

Jenn's Special Antioxidant Wake Me Up Before You GO GO Blueberry Smoothie!

1 cup of plain low-fat yogurt or plain greek yogurt
1 and 1/2 cups of frozen blueberries
1 very ripe banana (the riper the sweeter)
1 capful of real vanilla (not artificial)
1 handful of spinach (optional, promise you can't taste it:)
1-2 tablespoons of wheat germ (optional, can't taste this either!)

My toddler and I share this for breakfast every morning after the older kids go to school. He always points to the blender and says "booberry," as a hint to make it! Loaded with antioxidants,protein, and calcium it is a GREAT WAY to start the day!

After Workout/Breakfast Smoothie

This is very versatile I always change out what kind of fruit and yogurt I use!!:) I literally drink this EVERY SINGLE DAY and my daughter and baby boy LOVE IT!


1 1/2 cups of frozen fruit

Jenn’s Amazing Smoothie Recipe

This is so amazing you will be smiling all day!)

(My daughter Alyssa and I drink this for breakfast all the time.)

1 cup of plain yogurt

1 and ½ cups of frozen strawberries (I let them thaw about 20 min so they are easier to blend but don’t over thaw because the frozen-ness makes it taste better.

1 ripe banana cut into pieces

1 capful of vanilla (about a teaspoon)

2 squirts of honey (or your preference depending on your sweetness desire)

½ of cup of non-fat dry milk

You can also add any vitamin powders that you like. There is a Flaxeed one I like a lot that has no taste. It is called “Omega 3 Brain Booster.” Go to www.Omega3BrainBooster.com.
