Happy Gratitude Week! I love this time of year, and all of the colors and flavors that come along with it. Recently I’ve been channeling all the harvest vibes and starting my mornings with pumpkin oatmeal and all the spices, and it’s probably the most nourishing breakfast I’ve ever had to date. And needless to […]

It’s officially fall which in my book means several things, but one aspect in particular gets me excited – pumpkins, spice, and everything nice!

Mango smoothie anyone? Mango trees are abundant down here, and it is full-on mango season in Miami. Mangoes are rather high in sugar as far as fruit goes, so as much as I love it I don’t tend to eat loads. However I’ve been gifted mangoes straight from the trees lately. These fresh-off-the-tree mangoes are […]

Well it’s official – I’m on an avocado smoothie kick! After last week’s green superfood avocado smoothie, I decided to get inspiration from my own recipe and made a dark chocolate avocado smoothie. Like the avocado chocolate mousse, this smoothie is super smooth and creamy, and full of decadent chocolate flavor. But I went superfood […]
