For those who haven’t seen my previous Secret Recipe Club posts, this club includes a group of bloggers who are assigned a different blog each month and secretly make a recipe to post on their specified reveal day. Since August…

Coconut Smoothie Bowl
Smoothie bowls have been a food trend for a while now. They have a thicker base compared to the traditional drinkable smoothie and are served in a bowl with a variety of often colorful and decorative toppings. Like many trends, I am jumping on the bandwagon a little late with this Coconut Smoothie Bowl. For the coconut smoothie…
Red, White, and Blue Smoothies
These Red, White, and Blue Smoothies are a great layered drink for the fourth of July! The layers are created with blueberry puree, vanilla Greek yogurt, and strawberry puree. There is not much work involved, but each layer needs to be frozen before the next addition so allow yourself enough time. I made these in…
Pumpkin Cheesecake Smoothie
When Chad tried this Pumpkin Cheesecake Smoothie, he said it tasted like liquid pumpkin pie. It is a great way to use up any extra pumpkin puree from holiday baking. Pumpkin is blended with milk (or almond milk), banana, oats, cream cheese, and spices. If you want the smoothie a little more frosty, add a…
Mango Cinnamon Basil Smoothie
Here is another smoothie combination I never would have thought to try. This one blends together mango, cinnamon, and basil. It turned out great! Chad preferred it after refrigerating for about 30 minutes. If you don’t have fresh mango, substitute with about 1 cup frozen. The mango is a stone fruit originally from India. It…
Pineapple Orange Coconut Smoothie
This Pineapple Orange Coconut Smoothie is an easy, refreshing drink with a blend of pineapple pieces, oranges, bananas, coconut milk, and yogurt. To make it chilled, freeze the pineapples and bananas for at least a couple of hours before using. A handful of ice can also be blended in. I garnished the smoothies with orange zest…
Red Cabbage Smoothie
While searching for a recipe to use up my extra red cabbage, this odd-sounding Red Cabbage Smoothie caught my eye. Red cabbage, strawberries, and orange juice definitely seemed like a weird combination, but I had all the ingredients available and decided to give it a try. I really enjoyed it and so did Evan. It…
Orange Cinnamon Lassi
Orange Cinnamon Lassi is a refreshing yogurt smoothie, perfect for starting the day or as an accompaniment to a spicy meal. After making the mango lassi in January, I have been on the lookout for other types of lassi to try. This one was a definite hit. Evan is still on his yogurt kick and…
Strawberry Watermelon Smoothie
This Strawberry Watermelon Smoothie is the perfect summer beverage with only three ingredients. It is also a great way to use up any leftover watermelon you may have from weekend picnics or BBQs. Like most smoothies lately, Evan couldn’t get enough and would probably enjoy more than a serving in a sitting if I let him. He…
