Post Dog Walk Smoothie

I've been trying to get my little dog, Sammi, ready for a couple dog friendly 5k's.  Last year, she participated with me in the Valentine's 5k and Four on the 4th, but at some point, she was exhausted and I had to pick her up for a little bit.  This year, we're doing a little training!!!
Last year, we always had a 2-Mile-Tuesday walk, but this year we're cranking it up to 3.1-Mile-Tuesday.  Sammi did great, just a few stops and sniffs.



When we got back from the walk, Sammi got a doggie treat and I had a green smoothie.  I loosely followed a smoothie recipe that SIMPLE GREEN SMOOTHIE posted on their Facebook page.



I used 1 cup of Almond-Coconut milk, instead of 2 cups coconut milk and only 1 cup frozen pineapple.  I also add 1 tablespoon of Chia Seeds.  I add ice to this when I am halfway through, and sip until it's time for lunch.

Green Powder: Good, Bad, or just plain UGLY!

It's not pretty, but when you're up at 5 am and you've got to get your Monday morning going.  Drink this!!!

Ice, nonfat milk, a scoop of vanilla whey protein, frozen banana, a scoop of Very Green...blitz!

Add berries if you want them, I usually throw a few fresh blueberries or dried goji berries in, but when I am in a rush, I usually forget.

HAPPY MONDAY!!!
