CSA Drop-Off Day!

I'm fortunate enough to have a corporate CSA set up at the company I work for (ok, so it was the wellness department's idea to set that all up...meaning my coordinator and I!), and today was drop-off day!  My fridge is now loaded with fresh, incredible color that I can't wait to devour.

Do you belong to a CSA?  If not, it's something to definitely look into.  It's a way to eat healthy, save money and feed the whole family.  If it's too much food for you, consider splitting your share with a family member or friend.  It's so worth it!  Visit Local Harvest.org to find a farmer near you to sign up.

Summer Morning Shake

Just one of the amazing bunches of greens in my share this month!

After our first drop off from this season's CSA, my fridge was bursting with beautiful bunches of fresh and glorious greens!  I'm doing everything and anything to make use of them, and created this totally yummy shake for my commute to work.  

Summer Morning Shake

1 stalk of kale

handful of spinach

juice of half a lemon

1/2 an apple

coconut water

tablespoon of almond butter

1/2 teaspoon coconut oil 

1/4 teaspoon raw/local honey

sprinkle of hemp seeds

Blend well and add more coconut water (or water) to desired shake-texture.  
This makes one mason jar shake.  Enjoy the fresh taste of summer!
