Salad for Breakfast?

Lately I have been on this giant salad kick! I used to get super bored of salad super fast. Why? Well I wasn't being creative! Suddenly I find myself craving salads all the time! It's actually strange...but I'm totally loving it!
Now when I said "craving" that was no exaggeration...this morning I woke up and after considering my breakfast options, I ended up deciding on a salad! A salad? For breakfast? Why not! People eat breakfast for dinner...I'm just the opposite I guess!


Bright Red Breakfast Salad

Ingredients
  • Leafy Greens
  • Red Peppers
  • Strawberries

How To

It's a salad, so I can assure you that this how to isn't too complicated! Rinse the greens, slice up the peppers and strawberries. Throw it all together and top with the vinaigrette and hemp hearts! And lasty, enjoy!

Saturday Morning

This morning I am indulging in my (newly) favorite breakfast! I like to call it Oatmeal Fruit Pie! I always eat oatmeal, but I made this one totally differently and it is delish! :) Also, I’m answering a ton of your lovely questions on my Tumblr! So sorry it takes me a while to get through them! I’m working on it! :)
Oh and it’s Saturday morning everyone! This weekend is crazy because it’s basically my last full one! You know why? Next Sunday I’ll be driving down to my college orientation! Ahh! It’s so crazy that high schools almost over and I will be graduating this coming Thursday! Oh my goodness I can’t even begin to describe the combination of happiness, sadness, and nervousness I am experiencing!

Kale Spinach Banana Berry Smoothie

Recently I've been trying and failing to make the perfect green smoothie! Not too sharp...not too sweet! There were times when the smoothie would turn out brown and terrible or the times when more spinach would end up on the floor rather than the smoothie maker...it took multiple tries. However, thankfully I have finally found the combination that works the best for me! However, I think I finally found the perfect way to incorporate both spinach and kale into my beloved fruit smoothies! Delicious and nutritious!

Suddenly I find my self having one, sometimes two, green smoothies everyday! You can easily say that I've become obsessed! Trust me, it's not hard too when they taste so yummy!
 And believe me when I say yummy! The sweetness from the fruit really covers any sharp flavors the kale would've created! Forget about adding sugar to mask the veggies, I get all of my sugars from natural foods...like fruit!
