Berry Banana Smoothie

by Leave a Comment

Yay for smoothies!!  We love them for so many reasons…one of the biggest reasons is that the kids love them. This is fantastic news because you can disguise so many different super healthy items in a smoothie and the kids don’t even know. Shhhhh…we won’t tell if you don’t tell! This berry smoothie is so sweet, delicious and healthy and our kids think it’s the best thing they’ve ever tasted. We were inspired to make this one because summer berries are just that good. However, you can always use frozen berries and enjoy these healthy treats year round!

Coconut Raisin Chia Overnight Oats

Is there anything better than waking up to breakfast that’s already made? Like literally, you have to do NOTHING aside from getting out a bowl and a spoon and pouring it in. This is the answer for so many of us that just don’t want to deal with breakfast or most other things in the morning. Let’s face it, a lot of us fall into this category! I have 2 words for you. OVERNIGHT OATS. They will take you all of 5 minutes to make the night before and poof, there they are…ready and waiting for you the second you wake up. It’s kinda like magic if you really think about it!

So, overnight oats are incredibly versatile, you can change it up with each batch. This particular recipe is a GTK favorite. If you haven’t tried Coconut Manna yet by Nutiva it’s a must buy. We use this little bit of heaven in our oats, protein balls, smoothies, spread on toast, or like many other things…right off the spoon! Coconut Manna is simply organic whole coconut puree, that’s it, nothing else. The rich coconut flavor makes these coconut raisin chia overnight oats off the hook good!
