Elevate Your Smoothie

If you think a smoothie is just a bunch of blended fruit, you're doing it wrong.

Article by Divina Helene|December 8, 2021

Fruit? Sure—throw it in! My personal favorite right now is a chocolate-banana smoothie I make. But how do I turn that into something genuinely balanced and satiating? Pretty easily, actually.

The key to elevating your smoothie is finding balance. I love fruit and I eat it all day long; in other words, I don’t hide from the natural sugars found in fruits. But I do make sure I eat my fruit with healthy fats, proteins and fiber when I can to keep things blood sugar-friendly and me feeling satisfied and satiated.

You’d be surprised what you can throw in to the blender to create a well-balanced, delicious tasting smoothie. Some of my favorite things to add are: greens, nut butters, seeds, dates, riced cauliflower, and zucchini. I’m always changing it up depending on what I have on hand and the kids and I are always pleasantly surprised. Another thing: I never add frozen fruit or vegetables to my smoothies in the Winter time (cold foods in the Winter can extinguish your agni—it’s an Ayurvedic thing).

Here’s my the recipe to my current favorite.

Chocolate-Banana Smoothie (for one):

1 medium-sized banana

1 generous handful of greens

1 scoop of Be Well By Kelly Unflavored Grass-Fed Beef Protein Powder

1 heaping spoonful of almond butter

1 tablespoon Amazing Grass Organic Adaptogens Powder

1 tablespoon of chia seeds

1 tablespoon Navitas Organic Cacao Powder

1/2 cup water

Blend and enjoy!

1-Bowl Almond Flour Banana Bread

A recipe that's easy like Sunday morning—and that everyone will love.

Article by Divina Helene|March 4, 2023

We’re not gluten-free but boy do we love an easy, tasty almond-flour recipe that has everyone drooling and this one is it. What I love about this recipe is that you only need one bowl which means less mess and less clean-up. It’s super quick to mix up so you can get to enjoying it…

INGREDIENTS

3 ripe bananas

2 eggs

2 cups of finely ground almond flour

1 tablespoon of baking powder

1/2 teaspoon of salt

1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon (you can add more if you like cinnamon—we do!)

optional 1-2 tablespoons of pure maple syrup if your bananas aren’t as ripe (you may not need any!)

DIRECTIONS

Preheat your oven to 325 degrees and line a 9×5 loaf pan with parchment paper.

Mash your bananas with a fork in a medium-sized bowl and add the eggs and mix. Add the remainder of the ingredients and mix well. Pour the batter into the loaf pan and place on the center rack and bake for 50-55 minutes. Let sit until cool then remove from pan, slice and enjoy!
