Boys Snacking On and We’re on WELL in LA

Green Candy - or so I tell my boys.  This green smoothie is easy to drink thanks to the addition of an orange and frozen banana.  

A Delightful Green Smoothie

Serves 2 - 3

1 cup coconut water

1 orange, peeled

1 frozen banana

Leaves from one stalk of kale

Place in a high powered blender and whiz

This is an after school quickie now the weather is warming up.  Blueberries have started popping and make a good sub for the grapes and if pistachios or other nuts aren’t on the allowed list then try cubes of cheese or pitted olives. 

Cucumber, Grape and Pistachio Salad

Serves 2

1/2 green cucumber, washed and chopped

bunch of grapes, washed

sprinkle of pistachios (unsalted)

Mix together and serve

A cup of tea fixes everything and Vanilla Rooibos is our favourite.  Perfect as part of our settling routine prior to bed.   Ahh! says Mummy.....
