Justine's Coconut Dream Green Drink featuring Bai + Bridal Shower / Wedding Gift Idea

I love green drinks.  I have one every morning to get a serving of veggies.  I have experimented with all different types of greens and my preference always comes back to kale.  Experiment at your own risk, but I'm telling you kale is the bomb.com!  I find kale mild and it is a nutrient dense food rich in iron and fiber.  Plus it has a lot of protein for a green.  And my body thanks me if you catch my drift.

I personally love the combo of kale and pineapple.  This drink is filling, mildly sweet, and sustains me.  For an extra dose of protein, mix in a scoop of vanilla protein powder and you have a meal replacement.

Justine's Coconut Dream Green Drink

Ingredients:

• 1 large handful kale greens (approximately 40 grams)
• 6 oz light vanilla yogurt 
• 8 oz Bai Molokai Coconut Antioxidant Drink
• 3/4 cup frozen pineapple chunks
• 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (optional)

Directions:

Place in Vitamix and blend until smooth.

Serve in your favorite glass and enjoy!

My friend gave me this Kate Spade hers glass.  Isn't adorable?  It comes in a his and hers set.  It is a great bridal shower or wedding gift.

Justine's Chia Seed Water + Giveaway *** WINNER PICKED ***

I first tried chia seeds when I did the Jus by Julie cleanse 15 months ago (thank you Instagram).  That's when I met Jus by Julie's Chia Berry and fell in love!  The flavor combo is on point:  strawberries, lemon, and pomegranate merge together to create a tangy and sweet perfection.  The only thing about this drink that is a miss is that it claims to be "blended," but since these drinks are free of preservatives, which I appreciate, I can understand why they don't hold a very nice texture.  Additionally these drinks are $8 a pop, which is pushing it when you can blend them yourself at home.  I'll post my version of this drink soon.  

When I first started eating chia seeds at work everyone made fun of me.  Now many of my co-workers make chia a part of their daily diet.  Chia seeds may be little, but they pack a nutritional punch.  In fact their name comes from the Mayan language and means strength.

Nutritional Info for Bob's Red Mill Chia Seeds

Chia are rich in fiber, high in Omega 3, and have no added sodium or sugar.  They contain antioxidants and calcium, which are good for your skin, hair, and nails.  These are a great source of non animal based protein, but please remember to eat all things in moderation.  Yes I tell myself this when I drive by McDonald's and whisper Big Mac...  

There's something in my water.

It seems everyone has jumped on the chia pudding band wagon, but have you tried chia water?  I like to think of it as my protein / fiber drink in one.  Move over Metamucil.  There's a new sheriff in town.

Justine's Chia Seed Water

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup blueberries
• 8 oz Bai Molokai Coconut
