Tropical Mango Banana Sherbert!

It's almost Friday!! How is your week going? ♥

I am so excited about events have happened so far! I feel like I need to 'pinch' myself because I cannot believe reality... :)

1. Integrative Nutrition mailed me my official certificate to begin supporting clients!
2. My health coaching website has officially launched!
3. I welcomed my first client into my 6-month program!!!
4. Last night I met Joshua Rosenthal, the founder/director of Integrative Nutrition, & fellow IN students/grads in Hollywood!!! It was amazing to connect with so many positive, like-minded people!!

Ahhhhhhhh! I hope I can keep up this pace! ;)

The W Hotel was perfect for an IN meet-up!

Anyways... yesterday, I made a delicious treat by accident! (I was craving cold + sweet, so I just grabbed some fruit from the freezer and threw it into the food processor! All of the sudden, I realized that I had just made "Tropical Mango Banana Sherbert!" ♥

Ingredients:

• 1/2 banana, frozen
• 2 slices mango, frozen
• 1 tablespoon coconut milk
• blueberries, dried or fresh 

Directions:
Place banana and mango into food processor, add coconut milk. Blend for about 1 minute, until the mixture has a smooth consistency. Scoop out with an ice cream scoop. Top with blueberries (or fruit of choice!)

Makes 2 servings.

I hope you have an amazing rest of the week!! ♥

P.S. If anyone would like to "like" my new Facebook page, I would ♥ the support! (And I gladly return the favor!) http://tinyurl.com/6g4awyy

P.P.S. Is anyone in California going to WorldFest this weekend?! My mom and I are going on Sunday! :)

Vegan Gluten-Free Blueberry Banana Bread!

Good morning! How was your weekend? 

Jon and I enjoyed our Saturday night by having an "I Love Lucy" marathon! (Yes, we are wild and crazy.)

Anyways, to get this week off to a great start, I decided to have some fun in the kitchen this morning!

The end result? Vegan Gluten-Free Blueberry Banana Bread! In addition to being vegan, it is also gluten-free!
 

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup canola oil
• 2 tablespoons agave
• 1 banana
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 cup oat flour
• 1/2 cup arrowroot
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/8 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/2 cup dried blueberries (or fresh!)

Directions:
1. Grease 9x5x3 loaf pan with canola oil and preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
2. In blender, combine oil, agave, banana, water, and vanilla.
3. In separate bowl, combine oat flour, arrowroot, baking powder, salt, and blueberries.
4. Add liquid ingredients to dry and mix well.
5. Pour into loaf pan and back for 15 minutes.

Lots of delicious banana flavor, just the right amount of sweetness...

As a special treat... you could even make Vegan Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Banana Bread, using chocolate chips instead of the blueberries. Yum!

Do you have any vegan banana bread recipes? I would love to try them... :)

I hope you are having an amazing Monday!!
