On December 31st I had a wonderful opportunity to demonstrate three healthy smoothies on WGN Chicago’s Channel 9. These recipes attack the top New Year resolutions: losing weight, eating healthy, and getting fit. As a bonus they contain super healthy, easy to find ingredients that are kind to your budget. For those of you who missed the segment (it was on early in the a.m.) here it is http://www.wgntv.com/videobeta/watch/?watch=cb9bf275-1461-4eab-b993-2f5807d0ee30&src=front and here are the recipes.
I don’t make New Year resolutions, but my GOAL for 2010 is to blog on a regular basis; no less than twice per month. There. I’ve said it out loud, so it will definitely happen, right? Enjoy my 2010 kickoff blog, and a happy, healthy, delicious 2010 to all!
