Good morning everybody!! Rise and shine! Don't you remember your mom telling you that when you were a kid? Mine did and still does every once in a while :o) LOL!
Here's a delicious and simple smoothie to get you on a good start for the brand new day. I make this whenever there are organic strawberries available, which isn't often and LOVE it. There is just something wonderful about the combination of mangos and strawberries that I find very addicting! Right now mangos are slowly going out of season and costing more... boohoo! At the farmer's market yesterday I only saw two stands that had mangos and couldn't buy my usual 8-10 pounds worth of mangos... oh yeah... I buy a lot! Thankfully I froze several bags worth of mangos for the off season and dehydrated some to make Mango Butter (recipe coming soon!!). Now, I just need to find a consistent source for organic strawberries as they are in season pretty much year around here. I want to grow my own... someday :o)
Now, go make yourself this delicious, creamy smoothie to brighten up your day... anytime of the day!
