Chocolate Covered Blueberry Antioxidant Green Smoothie

I've been eating a ton of blueberries lately and loving it...and I have the (temporary) blue teeth and tongue to prove it. ;)  I'm happy to share this delicious smoothie recipe with you.  It's nutrient dense and high in antioxidants.  Having a green smoothie for breakfast is an excellent way to create a healthy eating momentum for the rest of the day.  Enjoy!

Fresh Squeezed Stevia Lemonade~A Healthier Alternative to Soda

With summer and warm weather fast approaching, I thought it would be a great time to post this healthier soda alternative recipe.  This refreshing, fresh squeezed, lemonade is sweetened with Stevia extract instead of sugar.  Stevia comes in many different forms-from liquid extracts to powders and blends. For this recipe I used organic Stevia extract powder, which is very concentrated-so a little goes a long way.  If you're using a blend, you may need more sweetener and may have to experiment to find the perfect sweetness for you.  I use organic lemons and filtered water as well.  Please let me know in the comments how you like this recipe or if you have any questions! :)
