Smoothie King took over a former Hardee's (originally Burger Chef) on Presque Isle Ave. across from Northern Michigan University.

Nearing the end, well technical we have already completed this challenge we started a week prior, I can feel my gut getting smaller. I have noticed other things like having more energy, generally feeling more active. Now, it is not just the smoothie, as lately we have been eating a lot less junk, as you may know last the last 2 months were months of Gluttony as we played hotel to many many people.
You know how people see this one thing on tv and have try it. There was one day where we had 3 desserts, 2 types of waffles and a coffee bun. Yea try doing that for many days in a row see how much energy you have.
So what I am saying is I am potentially seeing a placebo effect as we have cut down on the high sugar foods, while the same time we started drinking this guy every morning. So you can see where the extra energy may come from.
Beside my drink is the little ones drink, lately he has been pretty good and drinking 3 cups of this a day, not bad if you ask me after all hydration is important, even if he fills up more diapers in the day!
It's smoothie season so I've prepped up a load of fruit ready for the freezer which will eventually be blended up into smoothies.
My favourite recipe: Strawberries, Pineapple and Blueberries, plus apple juice and a bit of low fat natural yoghurt.
Yum!
A tasty alternative to fruit bars for brekky. Sweet, fruity, and packed with fibre, this is one of the best smoothies I have made.
Spinach Smoothie:
- One bunch of fresh spinach (de-stemed;thoroughly rinsed)
- One medium Hass avocado (as ripe as you can stand it)
- One Granny Smith apple (as yellow as possible;cored, keep the skin for vitamins)
- One Bosc pear (soft to the touch; cored, keep the skin for vitamins)
- One Persian lime or two Key limes (the juice is needed)
- One pint of either natural vanilla ice cream or vanilla yogurt (homemade is best, the fewer preservatives the better).
1. Using a food processor or shake blender, whiz the spinach first. Then add the ingredients.
Voila - a batido de espinacas

Ignoring the temperature issues on the smoothie print it has less faceting. The vertical lines that are clearly visible in the Marlin/Ramps print are not visible in the smoothie print.
After a day of not very light and healthy foods (all day training at work) I needed something light and a little bit healthy for dinner. This is one of my favourite smoothies - milk, oats, honey, banana and vanilla.
Day 10 already - I made it to double digits!

I'm finding myself missing fresh fruit so much these days. Thankfully, there is a lot of the frozen variety that I can still enjoy. The smoothie was my lunch today!

Banana smoothies, pineapple smoothies and kid smoothies... :-)
"Do you like kids?"
A no-prize for the first person to answer this question correctly.
I also like that the cafe is serving "Organic Baby" - I certainly wouldn't want to eat an inorganic one. Do you think they are free range too?

This is after one day of tuning with smoothie.
