Easy and Healthy Eating!
Don't let sugar cravings, carb craziness, salt mania, and fat frenzy get you off track!
Start your day right with some yummy and healthy food, and get on the right track for the day.
Waffle Taco:
- 1 whole wheat toaster waffle
- 1/2 tbsp peanut butter
- 1/4 C slightly crushed blueberries, blackberries, or raspberries
Prepare the
waffle according to the package directions. Spread the peanut butter on the
waffle. Cup the waffle in your hand, add the berries, then squeeze lightly.
Think of it as a berry breakfast taco.
I like to use CHIA or hempseed waffles.
Tropical Fruit Smoothie |
The sweet, colorful
flesh of mango and papaya makes a super refreshing smoothie that is low in fat
and full of flavor. A vitamin C powerhouse, this thick, tangy smoothie packs a
nutritional punch, making it the perfect rejuvenator, whether enjoyed during
breakfast or as a midafternoon snack. Try adding a splash of coconut milk for a
colada-style shake. Here's to your day going
smoothly.
- 1 ripe mango, peeled, pitted, and cubed, about 1/2 cup
- 1/2 cup nonfat vanilla yogurt
- 1/2 ripe papaya, peeled, seeded, and coarsely chopped, about 3/4 cup
- 1 ripe banana, sliced
- 6 strawberries, stemmed and halved, about 1 1/2 cups
- juice of 1/2 lime
- 6 ice cubes, coarsely crushed
In a blender,
combine the mango and yogurt. Puree until completely liquefied. Add the papaya,
banana, strawberries, lime juice, and ice. Blend until smooth and very thick, 2
to 3 minutes. Pour into chilled glasses.
Start your day the right way, and enjoy your breakfast!
