I know, I know....It's been EONS since I've been here. I wanna come back and write more, but honestly I've just been "trying" to figure how exactly how/what my diet is going to effectively look like. I've been floundering around a bit, trying a bit of this, a bit of that, not really 100% positive where I want to land, diet-wise. I do KNOW that I really DO enjoy veggies, salads, fruits and really don't like lots of meat, cottage cheese, dairy, etc... and everytime I "try" a different diet I find myself trying to get in the swing of things that I just really do not enjoy. So, while I flounder around a bit in my quest for my personal mode of eating, I thought I would come out of hiding here and post an awesome recipe that my oldest son made up today.
I was really impressed with it's taste, and since I couldn't suck the sides of the blender to get my own share of his shake, I decided to make another one for myself as well!
We'll call it the GRAPE BOMB!
Handful of raw cashews, blended very finely
15 red seedless grapes
1 frozen banana, chopped up for ease of blending
Enjoy!
Looks great, Tiff! I love the added healthy fats and creaminess of raw cashews!
ReplyDeleteThe smoothie sounds good! You know it is so hard to figure this eating thing out for me too! Lately I have not been thinking about it too much - I take it one day at a time - do not call it a DIET - bad bad term. Makes you want to eat unhealthy - hee hee. I eat lots of veggies and salads which isn't hard for me. I am adding more fruit. I do not eat much meat either. I walk and exercise and focus one short goals. I gained almost 8 lbs this past year that I lost my mom - ugh. I am now down 4 of them. I know what I want my final weight to be but I take it 2 lbs at a time - focus on losing those 2 and then once I do - I do a little jig and dance and then focus on the next 2. It seems not to stress me out so much and I know I will reach my ultimate goal. XOXO Missy
