blended & roasted

Food is my favorite. They say looking great {and being healthy!} is 80% diet. I have fully taken on this idea, and lucky for you {uhh} I have chosen to document my every bite.

Every single day begins with a fresh smoothie. 

The contents are almost always different but follow the same basic formula. 

• 1 liquid {carrot juice, water, coconut water, 100% fresh fruit juice, etc}
• 1 leafy green {handful of baby spinach or leaves of 2 kale stalks}
• 1/2 banana {fresh or frozen}
• 1 berry {4 strawberries, handful of blueberries or handful of blackberries}
• 1/2 cucumber {peeled and sliced, fresh or frozen}
• Hefty pinch of Ground Flaxseed
• Scoop of Brown Rice Protein Powder

Liquify & enjoy! 

A good tip is to keep snack baggies around and in the mornings when you use one half of the banana or cucumber- go ahead and prepare the second half, put it in a baggie and pop into the freezer for the next morning. 

Green drinks for a good morning

The Tone It Up way to start the day :) 

My favorite fish recipe-

Sliced Red Onion, Fresh Minced Garlic, EVOO, Fresh Lemon Juice, Mrs Dash Chipotle flavor

Bake for 20-ish minutes at 350

Perfect every time! 

We tried tofu!!!

And I love it! I have been cooking it in 1 inch triangle shapes in a sautee pan or wok. I love when it gets crispy on the outside. Tasty tasty! 

{takes very well to Sriracha, Worchestire, Soy Sauce, Teriyaki Sauce, Balsamic Vinegar}

Another go-to recipe is baked chicken and asparagus. EVOO, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, onion flakes, Mrs Dash

Roasted veggies {these are green beans} make a great afternoon snack. I prepare them at night by roasting at a high temp with EVOO and sea salt

Roasted Carrots

And the wonderful Kale chips! I haven't perfected the spice mixture yet...but they still taste good. Even Mason eats them! :) 

Happy #EatClean cooking!
