Hey! So after a long morning at church I'm usually super hungry once I get home. Especially after standing in a room with very tempting glazed donuts to my right (it's okay to have a fatty sweet every once in a while, but I gave up desserts and candy for lent.) So i wanted something that would hold my hunger, but also healthy.
Simple Strawberry-Banana Smoothie
I usually try to have smoothie everyday, especially in the morning. But I was running late this morning so i didn't have time to make one. I think everyone should try to have smoothie everyday because they taste good, they're healthy, they make you feel good and they subdue your hunger.
In this smoothie there are no exact measurement, its more of make/ put in however much you please recipe.
- 1 or more sliced banana (can freeze)
-handful or more frozen strawberries (can be unfrozen)
-few ice cubes (optional b/c they strawberries and bananas can already be frozen and provide the ice the smoothie needs)
-enough milk to cover the ingredients already in the blender
Blend to your desire! you can also add a little bit of sugar or yogurt to sweeten it up.
Bell Pepper Chips and Dip
You need to remember that there is always a healthy alternative to every food! I love bell peppers because you can use them in many delicious ways. Here i wanted some chips and dip, and bell peppers are a great alternative for chips because they are crunchy and bursting with amazing flavor.
Here I have sliced yellow, red and green bell peppers. (make sure to wash them)
and as the dipping sauce I have Marzetti Classic Ranch.
You can use any dipping sauce you want, i was just in the mood for ranch. Just dip the bell peppers in the sauce and viola! you got yourself bell pepper chips and dip!
I love this combination because its so simple but so good! You got your sweet, strawberry-banana smoothie, and your salty, bell pepper chips and dip. PLUS its healthy! I love this snack and wanted to share it with you all. (: have an amazing rest of the day, and remember to be kind and love your body!
xoxo,
