    Tropical Goodness Coconut Smoothie - Vegan - from theglowingfridge.com
    Good morning beauties! Hope you had a warm, sunny, fun-filled Memorial Day weekend! I am sipping this delish green goodness smoothie as I type this, with the windows open, and a warm breeze coming in. Coffee right next to me, of course 😉 Last night, we slept with the windows open and a cool breeze coming through, which makes for the perfect nights sleep. Right?! Somehow, it makes the bed more comfy and delightful. It was also one of those nights where I was so exhausted I passed out as soon as my head hit the pillow, which is very, very rare for me!  I was planning to sleep in on this day off and then I woke up to my alarm, ugh! I forgot to turn it off last night..  I just couldn’t go back to sleep after that so I went to the kitchen to whip up a smoothie and wanted to share this tropical goodness. 

    I also bought a bunch of pineapples this week and they all happened to be ready and ripe enough to eat at the same time. The way I can tell they are ready is if there is mold on the bottom (gross I know) I also learned a new tip a few months back. Turn the pineapple upside down for a day or two so the juice isn’t just hanging just on the bottom, it allows the juice to disperse throughout. Let’s just say we have been eating lots of pineapple around here the past couple days! And I had to create some green smoothies using it.

    Today I plan to workout, maybe take Chuy on a run outside (Taz is too tiny) and do a Fitness Blender video on YouTube. It’s so nice to have an extra day off! I will probably get stuck helping Marty with outside yard work, which is definitely not my favorite thing to do, but if I can get some sun while doing it, then I suppose it’s alright! I do love having flowers all around the yard, but the pulling weeds beforehand part… Haha. What are your plans for today?

    This green smoothie really hit the spot though! I topped it with granola and blackberries, it has some extra superfood ingredients too that you won’t even notice. Enjoy 🙂

      Some dodge Edmonnton dealersips ofer second hand sport coupe cars, as
      wel as SUV models and sedans as well. There has been a small investigation into the crsh launched by local authorities.
      Mosst dealerships and used car lots only have to pay $250 for that GAP policy so they pockett the rest
      aas profit. But thiks time around he was onlpy doing the body
      work which was no small job. This means that if you
      do locate it, you simply need to remove tthe fuse rom the GPS device.

      Hi Jennifer,
      It is such a delight to explore your vegan blog! I love your Coconut Green Smoothie, in fact, I made a similar smoothie today but I added raspberries and Moringa Leaf Powder instead of Maca along with the other ingredients. Thank you so much for sharing this healthy and delicious recipe at the Plant-Based Potluck Party Blog Hop! I appreciate it. I am delighted that you partied with us this week!
