Uhhhh I’m so annoyed at myself! I accidentally deleted some photos I had taken when I had made some slow cooker recipes! I was going through the camera trying to make more space and well I ended up accidentally deleting photos I shouldn’t have! I was cursing myself afterwards and I usually save everything to my laptop first but this time of course I didn’t do that!

Anyway I’ll get over it….. eventually.

Onto something more positive. It’s apple season here in Michigan and last weekend husband bought some apples from the Farmers Market and a couple of them were still sitting in the fridge waiting to be used so I decided to make some apple crumble and be done with them. I’m not a big baker, I’ll do it every now and then, although I wouldn’t exactly call this recipe baking since it’s only a few ingredients thrown together but the end result was AMAZING and even passed husband’s test of approval 😉

I just made this smoothie – Actually I’m drinking it while typing this post.

It’s been a while since I made a Green Smoothie, notice how I left the green part out of the title (aka the spinach). I didn’t want to scare you away with the word spinach, although you can’t taste it at all, it just gives the smoothie its pretty green colour. 🙂

Almond Banana Smoothie

Ingredients:

Handful of banana (I used frozen banana pieces that I had in the freezer).
Handful of spinach (you can use frozen or fresh).
1.5 cups almond milk (or milk of your choice).
5 dates (I used medjool – make sure you pit).
1 tsp cinnamon.
1 tsp vanilla extract.
1 Tbsp chia seeds.

Method:

Place all ingredients into a high powered blender, starting off with the milk and blend!

There’s something about green smoothies – They really give you a big hit of energy just when you need it!
