Snow. Ice. 18 degrees and a wind chill of 1 degree!
Schools closed. Our office officially closed too!
It is a gift of time.
Smoothie time and the thoughts of the tropics came to mind as I gazed out the window at the snow.
I cracked open a Thai Coconut and put all the water and coconut meat into the blender, along with an amazingly ripe, sweet mango. Added to that, a half of an avocado, 1 stalk of celery, a handful of parsley, chia seeds, spirulina and several handfuls of kale.
Then, my new favorite ingredient: freshly grated ginger! Blend! Blend! Blend!
I topped it off with a sprinkle of some organic unsweetened shredded coconut and grated some fresh nutmeg on the top, and there you have it . . .
. . . a touch of the tropics in the middle of winter!
Now to enjoy the gift of this day!
Mmmm... Sounds good. Do you deliver?
ReplyDeletelooks amazing. love you and hope you enjoy your day. xoxo
ReplyDeleteThat sounds delish!! I'm going to try that combo! :-)
ReplyDeleteHey Kathy, I tried this today! I didn't have a ripe mango so I sub'ed peach, pineapple & banana, then cilantro for the parsley & added about a tsp of extra coconut oil. Super YUM! Thx for sharing this! :-)
