This is a blog where I cook according to my mood. My style is for the "Florida Girl." You won't see too many stews, roasts, or soups, because it's HOT where we live! The majority of my recipes are health conscious...because I can't afford to pack on the pounds while living the beach life in sunny South Florida! All of these recipes are tried and true! Some are original, some are family recipes, and some are adapted.

Fruit and Veggie Smoothies
I'm sure everyone has their own version for this. I've been having difficulty getting my 1 year old to eat his veggies, so my dear friend Jess told me to make him a smoothie. It worked! I added ice so it was like a frozen treat. I even tried it and enjoyed it. The color looks dark because of the frozen blueberries.
Note - measurements are approximate. Use whatever fruits and veggies you have!
1 6oz container of YoBaby drinkable yogurt
1 Banana
2 Cups packed baby spinach
1/2 Cup shredded carrots
1/4 Cup frozen or fresh blueberries
1/4 Cup frozen or fresh strawberries
Handful of ice
Puree in a blender and serve in a sippy cup, or if too thick, spoon feed or add more ice. Freeze the leftovers for future use.
