Happy Tuesday,
Do you need some more ideas for meals? Think about a smoothie. I like to think of a smoothie as a meal replacement-it can replace any meal where you are in need of support. Many like me use this model as a typical breakfast because it is quick and easy. Others use it to replace dinner because they don’t want to eat a large meal before bed or they are lacking in time. Many athletes use smoothies as a recovery model because they can pack in the nutrients. Others who have cancer, IBS or eating disorders use this model because a liquid meal is easier to consume when the gut shuts down and digestion is problematic.
Tomorrow night, Wednesday, October 7th @ 6:30 pm, my wife Chris and I are teaching part 1 of Healthy Food, Healthy You-Food Clinics on Power Shakes. For more information or to sign up for the clinic: Healthy Food, Healthy You
Because it will be our last clinic for a while, I have a special 2 for 1 offer for you. If you are already signed up or plan on signing up, you can bring a friend for free!
Here is a great smoothie/shake recipe from www.mercola.com, and is absolutely delicious!
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 cup ripe cantaloupe, cut into chunks
- 1 cup raw, organic milk
- ½ teaspoon raw honey
PREPARATION:
- Place melon into pint-sized measuring cup (or blender).
- Add raw milk.
- Add raw honey.
- Whiz with handheld immersion blender, or in regular blender until smooth.
There you have it! A deliciously yummy smoothie with cantaloupe, raw milk, and raw honey! I’m certain you and your family will love it! I would also add whey protein.
Our first session, Power Shakes is tomorrow, October 7th @ 6:30 pm. Try out the Honey Melon Smoothie, and come to the session on October 7th for more great ideas. Keep in mind that this clinic will likely be the last one for at least a year, given we will be having our second child in February 2010.
