🍑 Banana Peach Smoothie:
1 Cup Cold Water/Almond Milk
2 Scoops Vanilla Protein Powder (See comments for link)
1 Banana (frozen is better but take the peel off before freezing)
1 Handful Spinach
1/2 Cup Frozen Peaches
1-2 Tbsp Chia Seeds (Ideally let these soak for at least 20 min so they don’t cause any blockages 🥴)
1/4 Cup Almonds
🐔 Donna’s Chicken Tortellini Soup (w.o Tortellini 😂)
1 Small Chicken
1 Onion (quartered)
4 Stalks Celery
4 Big Carrots (or 2 handfuls of baby carrots)
1.5 Cups of Rice
1 Big Handful of Spinach
1 Red Pepper (chopped)
Salt
Boil the chicken with onion, 2 stalks of celery, 2 carrots and (lots of) salt for an hour. Let cool and take the chicken off the bones. Add meat back to the broth. Skim the gross stuff off of the top. Cut up the rest of the celery and carrots and add to broth. Bring soup back to a boil. Add the rice (white rice will cook for around 20 min but brown rice will take longer). 6 minutes before the rice is done, add the chopped red pepper. The last minute before the rice is done, add the spinach. Taste the broth and add salt/pepper.
