Pina Colada Green Smoothie (Vegan)

May 28, 2018 by Faith 1 Comment

Packed full of nutrition, this vegan Pina Colada Green Smoothie recipe will make you think you’re on a beach in paradise! It’s a great way to get your vegetables in, but all you’ll taste is sweet pineapple and coconut.

The first time I had a real Pina Colada was on a beach in Thailand. It was served in a coconut shell, and I still remember how refreshing it was as I lay in the sun with my feet in the sand reading a book. For me, a Pina Colada represents vacation!

And Green Smoothies represent busy days when I want to get a lot of nutrition in without taking a lot of time to do so.

Vacation, meet nutrition, in the form of this beautiful drink.…

Strawberry and Cream Smoothie Bowl

June 26, 2015 by Faith 9 Comments

Every spring I look forward to picking strawberries the same way I look forward to picking apples in fall. It’s like a seasonal rite of passage. But then when the time actually comes to do the picking, typically my basket isn’t even halfway full when I end up thinking about how much easier it would be to just buy the fruit pre-picked. So it goes every year, lol....

Balsamic Blueberry Smoothie Recipe

June 15, 2015 by Faith 14 Comments

Thank you to Earthbound Farm for sponsoring this post. I am happy for the opportunity to share brands that I believe in with my readers, and I hope you enjoy my Balsamic Blueberry Smoothie Recipe. As always, opinions stated are my own. This Balsamic Blueberry Smoothie Recipe is all about the blueberry flavor! A tiny bit of good-quality balsamic vinegar and a touch of sea salt pull out the natural sweetness of blueberries. I’m the girl who eats soup in summer and ice cream in winter. But maybe that’s not so strange…scientists say a hot drink on a hot day can cool you down and […]...

Skinny Raspberry-Chocolate Cheesecake Milkshakes

September 1, 2014 by Faith 11 Comments

How about a berry cheesecake milkshake for breakfast?, I enticed Mike one Saturday morning. Cheesecake-flavored anything is his favorite; combine it with berries and he’s in heaven. Needless to say, he was pretty excited about breakfast that day. That is, until he saw me add cottage cheese to the blender in a moment of inspiration....

BLEND Holiday Volume 1 is Here! {E-Book Launch + Giveaway}

October 18, 2013 by Faith 7 Comments

The holidays are without a doubt my favorite time of year. Everything about this season feels magical…fall foliage (back home, anyway! There aren’t too many leaves changing colors here in Kuwait, lol), fuzzy blankets, cozy comfort foods for dinner, shopping for Christmas presents, watching festive movies, and of course indulging in holiday flavored drinks. Lattes like Pumpkin Spice, Gingerbread, and Peppermint Mocha are just a few of my favs. Like so many of you out there, I want to be able to enjoy these seasonal flavors while still eating clean. I want something that is fabulously delicious and equally nourishing, and above all, I don’t […]...

Pina Colada Smoothie

July 26, 2013 by Faith 33 Comments

This sweet and creamy Pina Colada Smoothie recipe is a delicious, healthy mocktail style smoothie, and it’s easy to make into a cocktail with a little rum! Who doesn’t love a good Piña Colada, right? It’s a sweet fruity taste of the tropics that will transport you to a virtual paradise. This drink was invented in San Juan, Puerto Rico in the 1950’s. And the first sip of a Pina Colada takes you to its birthplace! It conjures up images of palm trees, white sand beaches, pristine ocean water, and a blue sky studded with puffy white clouds....

Almond + Joy Smoothie {From BLEND}

June 28, 2013 by Faith 20 Comments

So, I have a funny story about smoothies for you. At least I think it’s funny. I double over laughing every time I retell it, but I’m not sure if it’s one of those things where “you had to be there” for it to be funny. I’ll let you be the judge of that. :)...

The Announcement I’ve Been Waiting One Year to Make!

June 14, 2013 by Faith 33 Comments

I’m trying not to bounce off the walls ceiling as I write this because I’m so excited. I’ve been working on a project with the fabulous Alyssa of Everyday Maven for the past year and a half.
