Quick Fix - Drink Edition

So, I have been working on drinking a lot more water. I normally drink about 6 glasses on average per day, but in the evenings I often want something else to drink. Aside from almond milk, I do not have any other drinks in my fridge right now to encourage drinking more water.

Well, one night I wanted something different, so I went to the lab! I grabbed a few mint leaves (5-6), the juice from half a fresh squeezed lemon, 1 tablespoon of honey, and roughly 1.5 tablespoons of minced baby ginger. I put everything in my mortar and mixed everything with my pestle for about 2-3 minutes. I added the mixture to a glass and poured some fresh water on top of it. Let's just say I have found my new evening drink ;)

If you have some fresh fruit, feel free to add that to the mix as well. Either way, this is a nice quick fix to cut down on added sugar.

Enjoy and SALUD!!! (SIP and AHHHH!!!!!)

Good morning!!

Good morning lovelies!! And how are we this morning? Me? Oh I'm fine!
So what did you have for breakfast? I had some baked blueberry oatmeal. Added some almond milk and VOILA!!!

I posted the recipe for this recently but just in case you missed it here is it again: Baked Oatmeal
I chose to add blueberries instead of raspberries. You can also do this with apples or peaches. I added some flaxseed for a little added bang for my buck. 

This is an EASY fix! After you bake it, you can portion it off in containers so that all you have to do is grab one of the containers out of the fridge, just add a little milk, heat it up, and enjoy. I have also taken it to work so this is another nice fix for those of you always on the run. 

Well, I am off to the farmer's market for some fresh treats!!

Have an AWESOME day!!

SALUD!!!!!
