A tropical green smoothie made with pineapple, shredded coconut and bananas, then blended with spinach, light coconut milk and Greek yogurt. High in Vitamin A, B-6, C, Manganese and fiber.
I've been really addicted to green smoothies since I first tried them, some of you may remember the Skinny Green Monster made with spinach bananas and peanut butter… so good! I got my friends and family members hooked in it too! It's amazing how you can't taste the spinach, and every time I have one I try making it different.
This tropical version has been on my mind for some time, I just love the combination of pineapple and coconut, and the sweet bits of shredded coconut give each sip an Island flair. I've also added mango, flax seeds, papaya would be good too! You can leave the yogurt out and add a bit more coconut milk to make it dairy-free. Enjoy!!

This recipe is so easy and fast! Kid and mom approved. It’s a snack or dessert I don’t feel bad about giving my kids. I use my food processor, but I’m sure a blender would be great too. Hope your family enjoys it too.

Oatmeal topped with homemade apple butter, cinnamon and low fat granola.
I love starting my morning with a bowl of oatmeal, it’s heart healthy comfort food in a bowl. I eat a lot of oatmeal because high cholesterol runs in the family and oatmeal is known for reducing cholesterol. In addition, it’s high in fiber, a perfect way to fuel my morning.
My perfect bowl of oatmeal is all about the toppings. I love to add a combination of flavors and textures such as dried fruit, granola, nuts, cinnamon, or whatever I’m in the mood for that day. I also like to switch things up because I’m not the type of person to eat the same thing every day, so it may be pumpkin spiced oatmeal one morning, brown sugar and walnuts the next.
When I’m not enjoying my oatmeal hot, I usually make avena, which is a delicious oatmeal smoothie, an easy on-the-go breakfastl. I’m thinking a cinnamon spiced apple avena may be tomorrow’s breakfast!
Do you have a favorite oatmeal combination? Do tell!
