Carrot Smoothie

I'm still experimenting with getting the colors rights.  Green and orange end up an ugly color.  As usual, this tastes great, and is quite nutritious, but my goal is for my smoothies to also be pretty!

The usual suspects:


Almond/coconut milk, aloe juice, cactus water, local honey, wheatgrass, flax seed, chia seed, coconut oil, mint, parsley, avocado, ginger, turmeric, cauliflower, apple / tangerine / cucumber / carrot / orange / wedges.

Parsnips in a smoothie?

Breakfast: smoothie

This one turned out sweeter than most, because of the tilt towards more fruit than veggies.  And is a pretty bright green color : >

Here's the ingredient list:

Almond/coconut milk, aloe juice, cactus water, local honey, wheatgrass, flax seed, chia seed, coconut oil, mint leaves, ginger, turmeric, 1 parsnip, 1 cup kale, 1 yellow squash, 1 whole avocado, 3 tangerines, 2 small apples, 4" of a cucumber.

Lunch: Vegan Ethiopian meal

I went to a meeting on Saturday, which was right next to Azla, a vegan Ethiopian restaurant.  Since I had lunch before the meeting, I wasn't hungry, but the food smelled and looked so good that I asked for a taste.  And then I ordered a to-go box.  I ate the food today (Monday) for lunch.  The flavors were great, but I think the injera bread probably needs to be consumed same day.  It tasted weird today, so I didn't eat it.  Usually I can't get enough!!  But everything else was great!

Beet salad, kale salad with mango and walnuts, stewed potatoes, cabbage and carrots, tofu cooked in the style of Ethiopian beef dishes.  Delicious!

I also included a slice of my friend's almond cake and green tea!  YEESSSSS!!!

Monday morning smoothie: apple cucumber tangerine

Breakfast: smoothie
