Yesterday I went on another 4.5 mile run and I didn't even walk the whole time! I realize that a month ago I could barely run two laps around a quarter mile track and now I can go over 4 miles while carrying a decent amount of conversation. I admit during the last mile I wasn't able to talk as well but I could spew out a few words every now and again. Improvement!
So during the last mile I had some time to think while Daniel ran ahead for a bit. To get me through workouts I like to think about what I'm going to eat afterwards (hey, it works). I had yet to have green tea for the day and I typically like a smoothie right after a workout so I was thinking about how I could combine the two. Here's what I came up with:
It was the perfect combination of fruit and green tea. And super easy to make! I think it's going to become one of my new favorites.
Here's everything you need (minus lemon juice):

I think next time I want to play around with different fruits. I was really wanting mango but I didn't have any on hand. Grapes, peaches, and bananas were definitely a good combo though. I'm very pleased with how they turned out!
If you try it, let me know!
Nice idea…looks great!
Thank you!
The smoothie looks delicious! I LOVE green tea, I’m going to have to try out your recipe!
I love green tea too! Thanks, I hope you like it!
Hey there would you mind stating which blog platform you’re using? I’m
planning to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a difficult time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for
something unique. P.S My apologies for being off-topic but I had to
ask!
Hi there! I use WordPress and really like it. It is easy to use and has a lot of free themes to choose from. I am using one of the free themes but have created my own header. Good luck with starting your blog! =)
