Nutribullet

This past Christmas, Andrew's dad bought me a gift.  It was the very first gift he has EVER bought me since the day we met, over 18 years ago!  It was a nutribullet.  Andrew's dad went through throat cancer in the past two years. He became diabetic.  He bought the nutribullet and swears by it.  I have made a few smoothies with it, but never really fell in love with it.  And then...I saw his daughter Sara.  She looks phenomenal!  Her and her hubby.  Mark also bought them a nutribullet, and the difference is they use theirs.  One smoothie for breakfast and for dinner.  And, they have dropped so much weight!  

My problem has been finding a smoothie that tasted good, and was the right consistency.  Because my first few attempts on my own weren't all that great.  Too thick.  Too chunky.  Etc.  So...with a little help from Sara and pinterest...I have been having a smoothie for breakfast since friday.  Today will be my first attempt to have one for lunch too.  Today's breakfast is...

Cinnamon Mango Blast
  • ¼ tsp. ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup non-fat Greek style yogurt (with honey)
  • 1 cup frozen mango chunks
  • handful of spinach
  • juice from half a lime
  • 2-3 ice cubes
  • Water to MAX line
Add all ingredients into the Tall NutriBullet cup and extract until smooth.

Gotta say...it is delish!  It looks pale green, but yummy!!!  And, I think I can finish this one :)
