Smoothie Time!

There's nothing better than having a refreshing smoothie after a workout. I did some yoga today and afterwards I made a protein smoothie with hemp protein, kale, strawberries, cherries, flax seed, chia seeds, and orange juice. I love making smoothies at home because you can add or take out whatever ingredients you want and it's so much cheaper than buying one at a smoothie shop. I always use my blendtec blender, push the smoothie button and let it do its magic, but you don't need a high powered blender. You can use any blender to make your delicious smoothies. So, please experiment and have fun with making some smoothie goodness!

Hemp Protein Powder

Hemp Protein Powder is one of my favorite things to put in smoothies. Hemp is a plant that is mainly used for textiles and food. About a year ago I went in search of a healthier protein powder that would give me the boost I needed after my workouts. It has sort of an earthy taste. It taste kind of like you just scooped some ground up greens into your drink but after a while you don't even notice it. I usually get mine from Whole Foods but I'm sure you can find it cheaper online. Today I made a hemp protein powder smoothie with strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, and orange juice.
