Mango Turmeric Ginger Smoothie
I love making smoothies on days that I feel like I need an extra boost of fruits and veggies. They pack so many nutrients in just one glass, and they’re an easy way to sneak in otherwise bland or “healthy” tasting ingredients like leafy greens, and in this case, turmeric. If you’re looking to reset…

Chia Seed and Turmeric Smoothie

This powerful spice detoxes your liver, has the ability to kill cancer cells in the body, and protects your brain from Alzheimer’s disease. Betchya didn’t know all of that, did you? Turmeric is most commonly used in curry and other ethnic dishes, so it might…
Mango Coconut Smoothie

Basic Protein Shake + Variations
On weekday mornings I am always in a rush because I work out in the morning before work. I’ve been doing the same routine for about a year now, so from the moment my alarm goes off at 5:00AM, I have my morning schedule locked down to the minute. I have to squeeze in my…
