It's not easy trying to live a fit and healthy lifestyle... especially when you have a big sweet tooth like myself.
What helps me to curb my cravings is making a delicious (and healthy) fruit smoothie. It's also refreshing for hot day. Today I made a Cherry Coconut Smoothie.
Cherries. Coconut pieces. Coconut milk. Ice. Frozen strawberries. Milled flaxseed (optional).
I have to admit that de-pitting the cherries was a lot more work than anticipated. If you do make this, be prepared to get a lot of cherry juice over your fingers and wash them immediately or else it might stain.
I also had the most amazing dinner at Tender Greens the other day with a dear friend. I already posted the picture on Instagram, but for those of you who are not following...
Backyard steak. Garlic crostini. Parmesan kale salad. Buttery mashed potatoes. Mint lemonade.
