Windows are open at our house, we moved our patio furniture into the yard, took our bikes out for a ride and celebrated with this sunshine in a glass.

Smoothies are so fast and easy and you don’t really need a recipe. Just grab some fruit – frozen or fresh – add them to a blender with some yogurt, juice or coconut water and blend. Add veggies if you want, especially if you want to sneak in some extra goodness. This one was just made as a morning treat – no need to sneak it vegetables, protein or fiber.

]]> Mango and Pineapple Salad and dreaming of exotic warm places /2013/04/15/mango-and-pineapple-salad/ Mon, 15 Apr 2013 10:45:06 +0000 http://www.audrey74.com/?p=695 Audrey's Mango Pineapple SaladIn my quest for easy meals and a bit of colour on a dreary day, I opted to try an exotic mango pineapple salad. This bright dish comes together really fast – the biggest job will be cutting and peeling both fruit. So, if you want to speed up the process and can spare a few extra dollars, go ahead and buy the pre-cut mango and pineapple at the deli counter. The rest is just chopping a few herbs and mixing a few things in a big bowl. Serve this salad along any protein you want – grilled chicken breast or a nice piece of salmon and you’ll have an instant healthy meal with a bit of an exotic kick. Just enough to make you dream of Jamaican beach resorts or a Miami get-away. With temperatures still way below average for mid-April – dreaming is all I can muster these days.
