1 serving green superfood of your choice
shot of coffee
shot of agave
Blend in Vitamix on low setting for a minute, gradually turn up to medium/high for another 30 seconds or so. Sit in the sunshine & enjoy.

It's So Yellow Out Here
A perfect pollen storm today in my backyard...
A Weather Channel tweet yesterday put the pollen count in Atlanta at 5063. "Extremely High" is anything over 150.
Hendersonville is usually about 2-3 weeks behind Atlanta so we probably haven't seen the worst of it yet.

Raw Chocolate Vitamix Recipe
Here's a variation of one I posted a while back. I'm bringing it back because it is so good & still one of my favorites!
Raw Chocolate Pudding-ish Dessert
•1 ripe avocado
•3 tbs raw cacao (powder woks best with this)
•1 tsp vanilla
•3 pitted dates
•1 cup of pure water
Add all the ingredients to the Vitamix, blend with water to your desired consistency. *note--using the water you soaked the dates in will add flavor. I call it pudding-ish because it doesn't taste like Jello pudding--which is what you might expect. It tastes far better! Very intense chocolate flavor.
For variety you could add strawberries or bing cherries to the mix.
We also occasionally lower the water content on the mixture so it's doughy then roll it in crushed pecans. I like this recipe because it's so quick & so versatile. Hope you enjoy as well!
