Okay, I realize your concern. You’re wondering, “Who are you and what have you done with Melody?” And the truth is, you have every right to these questions. After all, I can’t recall ever posting a healthy recipe on here. Not intentionally. Typically, I post food that I like, or that is super-duper yummy, and I haven’t taken too much into account towards what may or may not be healthy.
Well, I’ve decided that probably needs to change a bit. Now, don’t worry – I’ll still bake fabulous things and when they turn out divine, I will be sure to make sure and let you know – and induce drooling and all of that good stuff.
But, today is not one of those days to drool over baked goods.
Today, I would like you to salivate over spinach. Fresh spinach, frozen strawberries, banana, vanilla yogurt – all blended together into a smoothie. A few moments ago my mouth was treated to this very combination – and it was like a party for my tastebuds.
Now, I’ll grant you, it does not look like a milk shake. (I put mine in my pretty Thirty-One tervis cup to help it look lovely.) It is frothy, but it is brownish, pinkish, green. However. It. Is. Fabulous. (notice: the cup in the picture is almost empty, proof of deliciousness, for sure!) I realize that I may be late to the smoothie party. But, I don’t care! This is a wonderful treat: de-lish at any time of day! If you haven’t tried one before, you need to try this. soon.
C’mon! Its good for you!

I do something similar as well: spinach, banana, almond milk, cottage cheese, and a scoop of chocolate protein powder. I call it the green monster!!! Delicious, though.
