Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie Recipe

I don’t know about your house, but some mornings it is really hard to get in a healthy breakfast.

Over the summer, my husband and I really focused on making sure we start our mornings off the right way! That’s when we started making this smoothie every morning. We love it because it only takes about 2 minutes to throw together, the girls love it too, and it gives us lots of protein and superfoods to start our morning.

We are going to focus on Cutting out the Sugar! 

This is not a new idea. Lots of popular diets have come to the conclusion that our sugar is out of balance in our Modern diet and this is the cause of our expanding waistbands.

 

Management of your Sugar and Carbohydrates is crucial for weight loss and your general health.

 

We know sugar is so important to get under control.

 

A low glycemic diet in general is healthier than a diet focused on lots of carbs. When our system gets overloaded with too many sugar and carbs, our cells start storing extra carbs as fat in our cells.

 

Our cells love to store carbs, so they are very eager and ready when we over eat our carbs. If we eat a moderate or low carb diet, then we can burn those carbs before they get the chance to be stored as extra fat. read more

Holy Avocados, Batman!!!

Avocados are considered a superfood these days.

They are a pretty mighty little fruit when you eat them.

I love avocados on salads, on sandwiches, with mexican food and now just recently have learned they are great in a smoothie! Recipes for smoothies here.

From Mercola.com: Avocados can protect you from liver damage. Rats who were fed avocados during a study and injected with a substance that causes liver damage were reported to have the least amount of damage as compared to rats fed other fruits.

Avocados are a great source of good fats in your diet. They have anti-inflammatory properties, promote heart health, and have more than twice the potassium than a banana.

Avocados are also great for your beauty regimen. Put cut pieces on your eyes for puffy eyes or make an eye cream. Use it as a facial mask. Use it on your hands to make them smooth. Use it on your hair as a deep conditioner.

So next time you are thinking about that plate of fajitas or fixing a smoothie – maybe you can throw in some avocados!
