I will start with the healthiest eats from this weekend, a Green Monster smoothie.
I originally heard about these from Caitlin over at Healthy Tipping Point...she makes them all the time. Her recipe came from this site: Green Monster Movement and my recipe is an adaptation of some of the recipes I read.
Green Monster:
- 1 banana
- 1 Tbsp Justin's chocolate hazelnut butter
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 cups spinach
- 7 ice cubes
Don't let the color fool you, it is very tasty. Try it...you won't be sorry.
I mentioned in yesterday's post that the husband and I hit Trader Joe's on Sunday for some super bowl snacks. We found some very yummy new things.

My pick...these tiny pizzas. They are delicious. I added green olives to mine, but they were good without them too. The serving size is 3 of the little pizzas for160 calories. Yum.

The husband's pick...mini chicken tacos. Also very good, but not as low in calories. I served them with fat free Greek yogurt (great sour cream substitute) and salsa.
We also picked up some spinach and kale Greek yogurt dip and mini pita crackers. It was a tasty game day.
What kinds of football snacks did you enjoy this weekend?
I did pick up one not edible item at TJ's.
Have a wonderful day!
I wish we had a Trader Joe's in our area :( We actually roasted two chickens that we picked at on game day. Plus, some chips and dip, which is not something we have very often.

I've never been to a Trader Joe's. We don't have such shopping anywhere near us. I would like a Whole Foods. I'm not sure I could get past the green of the drink, but I'll bet it is good! Thanks for stopping by and visiting my blog. Have a great week!
