My Morning Blend

It has been an exciting week - we not only kicked off 2010, but it was week one of GranolaFit Bootcamp - meaning the whole enchilada (a healthy vegetarian enchilada, of course) combining both the exercise and also the nutrition. Wooo freaking hooo! Everyone do a celebratory cartwheel and then get down and give me 20!

Over the past three months since we started GranolaFit Bootcamp, my bootcampers have been putting in the mileage and going the distance on everything from planks, pushups, jumping on one foot, running up endless amounts of stairs with weights in hand, mountain climbers, lunges, sprints and more.

And since I’ve always been a huge believer that overall fitness comes from a healthy diet and exercise, I wanted to help kickstart their diets in the New Year by offering them a fresh, organic blend of fruits and veggies every morning following their workouts.  Because let’s face it, we don’t all get the proper amount of fruits and veggies we need every day and  blending them up makes it that much easier.

This morning’s blend (one of my favorite blend’s thus far) was my Strawberry, Radish, Cucumber  blend.

Ingredients:

1 cup apple juice

1 cucumber

3 small radish

6 strawberries

1/4 cup parsley

1 carrot

1 apple

1/4 cup ice

Place all ingredients in your Blendtec, choose juices/smoothies button and blend away!
