It’s that time of the year when we all get the urge to drink something green and pretend that we’re all Irish. While I’ve had green beer before, it’s totally not my thing! At all! But I absolutely LOVE this bright green, super-healthy, Shamrock shake! So here’s the recipe, just in time for St. Patrick’s […]

Healthy smoothie recipes do not have to be bland or taste like lawnmower clippings. You can have fun, fruity (or chocolate) flavors and bold colors while still getting many health benefits.

Here’s one of my go-to post-workout green smoothie recipes. What I love about this blend is that it is high in protein, and also provides some much-needed (healthy) carbs to refuel my body and keep my energy levels up. If you have never used bok choy in a green smoothie, it’s time you did! Bok […]
