Favorite Things: The Best Green Smoothie Recipe

Breakfast

1 Mar

Happy Wednesday, friends!! Welcome to another Wednesday’s Favorites. Today I wanted to share with you my favorite kitchen essentials right now. First, the BEST green smoothie shake of all time! It literally tastes like an Orange Julius. Oh, yeah, sister. You heard me right. I don’t have exact measurements because I grab it and throw it into my Blendtec every morning, but it always makes enough for at least 3 people. What I like to do is drink a glass right then, make Tyler a glass, and then put one in the fridge for myself when I get hungry an hour later.

Green Smoothie:

  • A couple handfuls of spinach (you can buy it and freeze it!)
  • Frozen peaches, about 1 cup
  • 1/2 frozen banana
  • 2 scoops vanilla protein (this kind is my FAVORITE…definitely the best I have tried because it’s so good for you and tastes so delicious. Email [email protected]  for more info!)
  • Trop 50 (I LOVE this stuff! I think it tastes way better than orange juice and it’s sweetened with stevia which is natural. It has 50% of the calories and 50% of the sugar as regular orange juice).
  • Water

Also, I can’t begin to tell you how much I love my Blendtec. We bought ours about 3 years ago and I wasn’t sold at first when Tyler wanted to buy it. It’s expensive for a blender! We had stopped making smoothies because nothing could blend well so we just got fed up with making them. I am so glad that we bought it. We literally use it every single day to make a healthy smoothie in the morning. I even used it to grind wheat for the bread I made on Sunday (try this recipe…it’s incredible)!! That’s how well it blends. No more stopping and stirring. I’m literally obsessed.  This is the best deal + it has a 3 year warranty! My jar broke after about a year (the blade was having issues…I use it SO MUCH), I called Blendtec, and they shipped me a new one and I had it within 2 days. They have the best customer service!

I’m also in love with anything gold, so these gold measuring cups and gold measuring spoons are used any time I cook or bake!

    Hello! The Blendtec site says 3 year warranty but you mentioned 7 year warranty. Do you know which is correct?

    Looks really good! I like that it doesn’t have milk or soy/almond in it. Hard to find a recipe that doesn’t. Any idea how many calories are in this? Also…totally off subject…, what do you use to place Goldie’s little bows on her head? They are so cute! Those babies are precious!

      I buy it from Melaleuca! Email my friend Georgia ([email protected]) and she’ll give you all the info. They have TONS of natural products and they aren’t any more expensive than the grocery store. I use their lotion for my babies as well. It’s a life-saver!

      It really just differs every day! Probably about a half cup of each but it depends on how much you make. Just start with a little then add more! I just throw everything in and never measure 🙂

#ad You think you’re getting a good night’s sl #ad You think you’re getting a good night’s sleep, but you continue to wake up feeling unrested and aren’t sure why.

Your spouse notices you are snoring and they can’t get their own good night’s sleep by sleeping in the same room.

Neither option is any fun for anyone involved!

Snoring can be a symptom. Sleep apnea is where your throat closes off while you are sleeping, which does not allow for proper oxygen flow to your brain, thus leaving you tired the next day….and leaving your spouse sleepless as well.

And we all know that a CPAP machine is not the most user-friendly experience out there…

Enter @Soundsleepmedical. They have created an appliance that gives you sound sleep. The device holds your jaw slightly forward when you sleep so your airway is not blocked at all, and you wake up feeling refreshed and your spouse can sleep back in the same room as you.

Quality of life and a happy spouse is a win-win.

Be sure to use the link in my bio to schedule your free sleep screening. You can use code JENICA to receive a free sleep screening, which includes an in-office consultation and at-home sleep test, along with $50 off your oral appliance.

Sweet dreams my friends.
I cannot BELIEVE it was only a short year ago that I cannot BELIEVE it was only a short year ago that I was deciding if I could handle doing another frozen embryo transfer…and now LOOK at him 🥹 It was one of the hardest years of my entire life. Going through things I don’t wish on anyone. But look at us now 😭 And looking internally…the things I’ve learned.

Tell me about something a year ago for you that you didn’t know you’d get through and can’t believe you are where you’re at 🤍👇🏻 #infertilityjourney #ivfsuccess #frozenembryotransfer
This is it. Not just in motherhood, although moth This is it.

Not just in motherhood, although motherhood really amplifies it, but in life.

It’s the fast days that are loud and sunny.

It’s the slow days that are quiet and snowy.

The mismatched pajamas and the dressed to the nines.

It’s the mess.

It’s the organization and order.

It’s the to-do list that gets crossed off and the to-do list that doesn’t.

It’s in the allowing of both.

It’s in perhaps preferring one over the other, but not judging either.

It’s in the wisdom that both will pass and each have lessons to teach.

Neither is wrong.

Both are allowed.

This is it.

It might feel impossible in the middle of it and y It might feel impossible in the middle of it and you might question everything.

“I have no idea what the future will bring.”

“Will everything I’m putting myself through be worth it?”

“What am I doing?”

“Am I making the right choice?”

But your moments will come. Trust that and let it bring you peace.

The alternative is feeling anxious, which is also completely acceptable and normal, but remember that you also have the option of trusting and feeling peace, too. There is room for both.

You’re not alone in this 🤍

It was a year ago that I decided to jump into the It was a year ago that I decided to jump into the deep, black ocean of IVF again. I knew what I was doing this time and I was filled with fear because…I knew.

When I found out I was pregnant, the fear was my secret. Only a close few knew.

And this space was filled with tears, uncertainty…soul reaching prayers.

Sleepless nights, gut wrenching heartache.

Secrets that I hold close to my heart.

And then he came.

And the healing began.

And the mama, this mama, knew she did it.

That black ocean had swallowed her whole and she’d do it again for the light that is him.

Once she swam to the surface, and jaggedly gasped in the fresh air and felt the sunshine on her face, she knew she would do it all over again.

For this sacred chaos.

Tonight as I was moving the bassinet out of my room, I stopped. The room will soon be cleared. The shelves emptied and the order restored. And I can’t believe that the ocean was conquered. The chaos was where I found the strength and the beauty.

The sacred, precious chaos.
