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

Tropical Green Smoothie!

Happy Friday health & wellness lovers! I hope you had an amazing week... and are getting ready to enjoy your weekend! ♥

Today, I wanted to share a delicious green smoothie recipe that was given to me by one of my Integrative Nutrition classmates! (It is the best green smoothie I've ever had!) It is sweet and has a very 'tropical' flavor!

Tropical Green Smoothie
Ingredients:

• 1 cup coconut water
• 1/2 cup mango, frozen
• 1/2 cup pineapple
• 2 kale leaves
• 2 handfuls of spinach
• handful of sprouts (I used Trader Joe's micro greens)

Directions:
Blend all ingredients in a blender!

*Note: If you are not using a Vitamix blender, it is helpful to first blend the coconut water with the greens, then add in the fruit.
