Warm Apple Pie Smoothie

by Lori and Michelle on January 30, 2010

Hey friends,

Glad to see everyone liking Michelle’s Coconut Avocado Rice Stack dish. Yummy making me crave it again.

Definitely snowed here but not as bad as I know other places got hit with this snow storm. But hey us Florida raised girls are not good with the ice or snow! And we mainly got more ice than snow.

To keep us warm this morning we whipped a warmed apple pie green smoothie

It is a nice treat on a cold day though you are still able to get your green smoothie in. We put ours in a bowl coffee cup (kinda like a bowl) in honor of this sweet lady.  We have seen her put her smoothies in a bowl and thought what a cute idea. Though we did not have any of the fun toppings she usually puts on top :( But that is ok, it was still a fantastic smoothie to start our day!

Workout:

55 minute of this new Yoga DVD

(source)

Yep Jennifer Aniston’s yoga instructor’s new dvd. We were so excited to finally get this in the mail that we bought a few days ago. We have seen it around in the blog world. And have heard great reviews of it!

Twins Review: 2 thumbs up!!!

We love it. Love the quality of the dvd, the music, the instructor (which is huge for us), and of course loved the yoga poses.

Mandy is a doll. So cute and honest in the video. She really makes you feel like you can do anything and so positive about life.  I can see why Jennifer Aniston really fell in love with Mandy’s yoga practice style. So different and unique and intense. You will feel your butt, thighs, and abs burn :)   It is definitely a different pace yoga dvd compared to others we have tried. We really like how she incorporates strength training moves along with yoga.

Post-workout meal: Mint lime avocado pudding

There that is better. Yacon syrup always does the trick!

Got a little hungry few hours later so grabbed some fermented foods.

Perfect!

Got something delicious for dinner and dessert tonight. Let’s just say lots of chocolate involved. Can I have dessert before dinner?

Till next time,

The Twins

Averie, yes we really enjoyed Mandy. She is really good and so down to earth in her videos. She really makes you ‘like’ to feel the burn in yoga poses ;) Thanks for your support with our e-commerce site. Going to be a learning curve for us! But one we are excited about, it has finally come after all this time of planning and designing. But still so many tweaks to do!

Just the name “warmed apple pie smoothie” sent me reeling! I’m SO in! ;-) Thank you for sharing the recipe. I’m going to have to check out Mandy’s DVD.

Julie, I know we are huge fans of our warm apple pie smoothie. We just loves warmed apples and coconut oil together. And the spice cardamon. Yes please check out Mandy’s dvd she is adorable :)

Thanks Serena, it is one of our favorites :) Love warmed apples :)

Heather January 31, 2010 at 8:36 am

That smoothie sounds delicious! The DVD also sounds intriguing. I do a lot of my yoga from online, so it’d be fun to try one on DVD.

Pure2 January 31, 2010 at 10:18 am

Heather, we typically do yoga online as well. Though a DVD is nice to have too because you can actually see the instructor ;)

Lilla January 31, 2010 at 9:57 am

Hey There!
Thanks for the heads-up on all the giveaways – I entered all of them. ;) I’m sponsoring a coconut oil giveaway – would love it if you have a chance to mention it. Drawing is on Valentine’s Day. http://thelabrawtory.com//2010/01/30/coconut-oil-giveaway/

The smoothie looks awesome! And warmed up is perfect where you are. Snow and ice = brrr! Anyway, no doubt the smoothie smells divine too! And hey, since there’s two of you shouldn’t it be FOUR thumbs up?! ha ha! I kid.
