Happy Morselicious Monday!
Hope everyone had a GRAND weekend! How did you spend yours?
The Morselist spent the weekend doing Food Fairs & Demo’s. Stay tuned for my upcoming, CONFESSIONS OF A MORSELIST Post.
NOTE: Not for the easily offended.
Have you thought of a question for my ASK THE DIETITIAN Blog? We’re super excited about this and hope to make it a monthly post.
Sunday, I was feeling creative and green and my boyfriend wanted one of my famous (well, famous in our house) smoothies.
I wanted to try some new greens because I read that too much of one green, day after day is NOT great…variety is BEST. In our fridge, we had zucchini, broccoli, and avocado so I threw in some of each with:
unsweetened SO Delicious Coconut Milk
Now Foods Flax Meal
Nutiva Hemp Seeds
Living Harvest Hemp Protein Powder
Ice
Doug looked at the smoothie and asked,“Why is this GREEN?”
I replied, “Just taste it and then I’ll tell you.”
He gave me a hesitant unsavory look, “Mo, what are you giving me?”
“Just try it. If you don’t like it, I’ll drink yours and make you another one.”
Like a little kid about to take some icky tasting cough syrup, he sipped a small gulp.
“Mmmm…this is fantastic! What’s in it?”
When I told him, his first reaction was, “Uh oh, how much fiber is in this?!” (Remember my Too Much Chi Chia post?) followed by, “Who’d have thought I’d actually like the healthiest drink I’ve probably every had?”
He even asked for more!
As always, I had to give my concoction a name, so may I present to you:
The MORSELINI GREEN ZUCCHINI Smoothie
Yes! I totally agree Alicia and Maura! Green is delicious :)!
Green is GREAT! (it’s also my FAVORITE color)
I’ve had that shake, minus the seeds… it’s delicious. Never judge a food by its (natural and fresh) color.
I totally agree, Alicia!!
