This is a great, refreshing drink. The spice with sweet pineapple reminds me of Thailand.

Ingredients:
- 1 tangelo, peeled
- 1 pear, washed and cut in fourths
- 1 leaf of kale, washed
- 2 cups green leaf lettuce, washed
- 1 TB Boulder hot sauce, smokey serrano flavor
- 1 cup frozen pineapple
- 1 cup water
Throw it all in the Vita-Mix, start on low, variable speed 1. Start increasing the speed to 10. Blend 30 seconds or so and enjoy. I like to drink this as a healthy lunch smoothie. But, it might make a good breakfast smoothie too.

Why buy yogurt with added coloring and chemically enhanced flavor? Just throw some plain yogurt in the Vita-Mix (or a food processor)with a few strawberries and enjoy.
Coffee, Banana, Rice Milk Shake
I promise… this is delicious.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup coffee (hot, warm, or cold)
- 1 very ripe banana
- 1/2 cup Rice Milk (I prefer to make my own, but the 365 brand vanilla flavor or plain will work also)
- cinnamon
Combine the coffee, banana, and rice milk a blender or, if you are so fortunate, a Vita-Mix. Blend. Pour into a glass and sprinkle with cinnamon. It will naturally get frothy on top. Enjoy.
I don’t drink milk, but I’m sure this will also work with the milk of your choice.
