Green Drink, that's what am calling today's food post. I like drinking smoothies, but the ones being sold are almost always too sweet for me. Then I found out about green smoothies; I know I just had to try it!

Ingredients
1 c coconut water (chilled)
1 1/2 c fresh spinach
1 banana
1 apple (peeled, since am sure it wasn't organic)
1 tbsp coconut sugar (less, or more; depends on your preference)
3 tbsp milk
1/2 tsp maca powder

Procedure:
Blend everything till smooth. Adjust sweetness.
Enjoy!

The green drink tasted weird, initially. Maybe because this was the first time, plus the fact that I used coconut water instead of just plain water. My sister loved it, though. The next day I tried with just apple and banana (and plain water) since my spinach and coconut water supply was all gone. This green drink is still new for me, and would love to experiment some more. Not just with the greens, but also maybe with some reds, or blue. And some more green! LOL.

ps. You may freeze the fruit first, if you want. Or add ice. To make a more colder drink.

This week's food post has that ingredient that I have been trying my youngest to like: sweet potato. Am calling this: Crunchy Sweet Potato.

Ingredients:

• freshly boiled sweet potato - one, medium sized
• milk - 2 tbsp.
• mango jam - one big dallop
• cereals - 1/4 cup

* amounts listed good for two kids or one adult

Procedure:

• Peel the boiled sweet potato then roughly mash.
• Mix the jam and milk together, then pour over the boiled sweet potato.
• Crush the cereals and put on top to give the snack that crunch.
• Enjoy.

I think that this was half a success (and half a failure) since my youngest only managed to eat three tablespoonfuls. But at least he tried. lol. My other son liked it, though. Both of us finished it in no time. :D

Reminder: Please don't forget to link back (a simple text would be great, or you may use the buttons provided here). Also, please try to visit the other party-goers and leave some commentluv to let them know that you dropped by. Many thanks! :)

This week's post is: Tilapia in Coconut Milk with Chayote. A mouthful, I think, but simple to make. I love chayote (we call it sayote around here) in coconut milk (and that's how we usually cook it back home), and I have also come to like tilapia with coconut milk, so why not cook them together in one dish! :D

Yikes!!!

...yup.
... and we haven't started with our Christmas shopping yet!! o_O
not that we'll be buying much...lol.
