Pinterest: Tried and True

Here are 3 things I’ve tried that I found on Pinterest, and that have proven to be successful:

Pre-Made Smoothie Packs

I also posted about this on Instagram a few weeks ago, because I was so excited about it!  I recently made the decision to stop eating cereal every day, so I wanted to have smoothies.  It is a great way for me to have a nutrient-packed, filling breakfast.  Here it is on my Pinterest “Health Food” board.  I used chopped spinach, frozen berries, frozen mango, and banana.  Then when I blend them in the mornings, I add almond butter, ground flax seed, almond milk, and water (sometimes).

To-Die-For Blueberry Muffins

I made this for my volunteer role at church one Sunday, but made a few extras for us.  These were a hit at our house!  They are so much like bakery or coffee house muffins, and not at all like the kind from a boxed mix. Here is the link from my Pinterest “Breakfast” board.

Roasted Okra

We made this a couple of weekends ago.  We didn’t go 100% by this recipe, but our method was so similar!  We just had the oven at 400.  It is definitely the time of year to eat okra, so I wanted to share this.  There have been so many okra recipes floating around Pinterest.  Here is the link for the roasted okra recipe on my Pinterest “Savory Dishes” board.
