Happy Tummy Smoothie

May 17, 2019 by Gina +

this Pin this

I use to make this smoothie, or a variation of it, all the time. It was kind of my way to show family how good a smoothie could be with a bunch of veggies and some fruit. Typically spinach or kale is used for some green, but adding more veg, like cucumber or celery adds such a nutritional punch too.

I call this the happy tummy smoothie for a few reasons. Ginger is lovely to help settle the stomach and adds a great spice kick to the smoothie. The cucumber is another great addition. It helps with digestion, hydrates the body and skin, and is nutrient dense. The spinach packs in a good amount of iron too. I use banana for sweetness, but pineapple and a few dates are also delicious.

I love my Vitamix.  I can’t find the one I have but this is similar.  Nothing get a smoothie as creamy and smooth.

This Butter Pecan Coffee Cake Loaf with Brown Butter Maple Glaze is everything I love about fall baking. Trying to stay with summer but can’t help but to dream🤎 Soft, buttery, packed with toasted pecans, and finished with the most incredible brown butter maple glaze.

Summer gatherings call for dinners that basically Summer gatherings call for dinners that basically make themselves. 
These Sweet & Savory Korean BBQ Pulled Chicken Sandwiches are made right in my 10-quart Autuku slow cooker, which means plenty of room to feed a crowd without spending all day in the kitchen.
The simple WARM/LOW/HIGH settings make it easy to set it and forget it, and the PFOA-free ceramic pot is removable, so you can bring it right to the table when it’s time to serve.
Pile the saucy pulled chicken onto toasted brioche buns with creamy sesame pickle slaw and extra pickles. Save this one for your next summer gathering!
