Everything But The Kitchen Sink Green Monster

Everything is right in my world once again!!!!!!!!!! Oh, Green Monster how I missed you!

It had been so long (6 days???) since my last GM, I wanted to throw in everything into the blender.

“Everything But The Kitchen Sink Green Monster”

Ingredients:

3 cups spinach, steamed
1 tiny brown banana (extra flavour!)
1 nectarine
squirt Kyolic garlic
1 cup Almond Breeze
Amazing Grass WheatGrass Powder
1 T All natural peanut butter
1 T Chia seeds
3 large ice cubes (a must when steaming spinach)

I almost forgot the chia seeds and threw them into the blender at the last second!

GMM is also updated with new Green Monster recipes for you to enjoy! I am loving all of these new ideas. They really broke me out of my rut.

I almost tackled the UPS man today when I saw his truck. You may have seen me shouting about it on Twitter this morning. ;)

I also received the Food Processor too. The box on the right is my bulk gluten-free oats that arrived yesterday.

All shiny and brand new :)

Let’s hope I don’t break these appliances once again! I got a great tip from a couple readers suggesting that I should soak my dates before processing. I broke my food processor by trying to process dates dry (it melted the rotator!). I can’t wait to try it out again with a fresh start. I will post my results of course!

I have been busy baking up some orders today.

I’m quite tired after the clean-bake-clean-pack-ship spree today.

Awake Glo Bar

Glo-nola

Sweet & Spicy Zucchini Spelt Muffins:

With crunchy cinnamon-streusel topping:

I also made a huge double batch of my 50 cent hummus:

Nothing is more satisfying than eating food that you made from scratch! I can’t believe it has been so long since I made my own hummus. Tsk, tsk!

This is Sketchie yesterday.

He was lying on Runner’s World while watching me on the treadmill. Ironic? ;)

He’s such a model, lol.

Coming up on OSG:

I review my first official run/walk experiment. Did walking affect my time?
I review 3 news foods I am officially obsessed with :D

I hope you have a lovely day everyone!!!!

Oh my gosh those muffins look AMAZING!!! The topping definitely makes it!

Also, YAY for a new blender! I’m sure you’re happy to have your GMs back in your life :) That one looked delectable!

And as usual I want all your Glo products :)

Thank goodness for the new blender! I’ve been missing these smoothie ideas you always give me. I just tried out peanut butter instead of almond butter for the first time today and LOVED it!

All these baked goods just look so good. You’ve got some mad skills Angela! :)

xxoo

So glad to see the GM’s making a comeback :o) I thought you might find this video interesting. It has to do with when various foods are most appropriate to eat and when their nutrients are most bio-available. As it turns out, bananas are best to eat when they are yellow with green tips (have the most vitamin C at this time).

I love the new design! Your hummus looks really good, and simple! And as always, your baked goods look to-die-for :)

Congrats and fingers crossed on the new Kitchen Aid!

I was doing plyometrics today, and every time I jumped backward (180) I had an up close view of my cat, totally sacked out with her tongue sticking out. They are such motivating creatures aren’t they?! :)

Can’t wait to hear about these 3 new foods!!!

I LOOOVE my chia
the husband? not so much so I sneak it into everything when he’s not looking :)

Robin

I am salivating, that all looks so good!

Paige @ Running Around Normal

Yaayyy! New blender is here! I had a GM this morning too, but Blogger was being a tool (in the bad sense) and wouldn’t upload my pictures. I’ll have to submit it to you soon :)

The baked goods look lovely as always!

Kat

Yay for the return of the blender! Any word from the Vita-Mix people yet?

Maggie

Wow, that’s quick, i honestly thought you’d be waiting a lot longer for your blender. Way to go Kitchen Aid.
i finally came across chia seeds yesterday at the organic market and they had 2 different kinds, is there a difference? There was just black and white but I just picked up the black kind since that’s the only kind of seen in the blog world.
I was expecting them to be kind of pricy but does $2.30 per 100g seem like a lot to anyone? I really have no idea whether that’s normal, cheap or crazy overpriced..

Claire

You just reminded me that I forgot my garlic in my drink this morning.hehe…How do you get your muffins sooo perfect.They look so yummy:-)
