Healing Tropical Turmeric Smoothie

March 27, 2016 by Jillian Leave a Comment

This smoothie is my everything ✨

Not only does it contain plant based healing properties, but it’s refreshing and delicious, and the beautiful bright orange color doesn’t hurt either! Smoothies have become part of my daily diet and I feel like 5 million percent better than my pre-smoothie life. Humans are so used to eating processed foods, even the healthier versions of them, that sometimes eating basic raw fruits & vegetables can be a daily struggle. I know that even if I slip up and eat a whole bag of potato chips or something fried or containing gluten, I feel better knowing that smoothies got my back and I don’t have to have a meltdown because I ruined my day with junk food.

Enter the Healing Tropical Turmeric Smoothie. A coconut based smoothie with healing turmeric and ginger, banana and peaches for natural sweetness, and carrots for fiber and a pop of color.

Check out my very first recipe video for this easy to make smoothie! I’m sure there are tech savvy 10 year olds out there that could create a better video than this, but it was super fun to make and I’m sure my video skills will improve from here on out. Let me know what you think!

Fruity Liquid Gold

Today’s post is a quick and easy recipe for Fruity Liquid Gold! Okay, so technically it’s not gold colored, but it’s fruity and liquid and tastes soooo gold – I mean, good. It’s got a pink, orange, gold thing going on so we’ll make it work. This beautifully colored drink is part smoothie, part juice, part tropical heaven. It’s full of nutrients that will give you glowing skin and you can add whatever else you would like to it. Then fill up the kiddie pool, put on your sunglasses, and imagine you’re on a tropical island faraway.

Before we get to the recipe though, can I just give a belated shoutout to Women’s Equality Day & National Dog Day?! I think it’s no coincidence that these two great specimens are honored on the same day. Clearly, both are amazing, although I might be a little biased? Either way, August 26 is seriously making it’s way to the top of my favorite day of the year list, which includes competition such as Halloween and my birthday, so that’s saying a lot.

I think my best gal pal Josie fully embodies August 26 because, well, she’s a dog and a woman – she’s a dogwoman.

And she’s looks pretty darn happy about it.

With all of the rain in central Texas these past few months, I ALMOST forgot it was summer. It hasn’t been it’s usual scorching self. And then my mom sent me some popsicle molds in my birthday package a few weeks ago and I finally got to use them this weekend – and oh yeah, it’s summer! Nothing screams summer like nice cold popsicles. But these are special popsicles. They are magical raw vegan popsicles. The coconut base is rich and creamy paired with frozen berries and fresh herbs. Toss in a little raw sugar to sweeten the deal and you’ve got homemade popsicles that are way better than anything store bought!
