Day 7 of My 7 Day Smoothie Challenge

I've made it through the entire week, having at least one smoothie a day!

It has went by super fast and I'm so glad I did this challenge. It has helped me phenomenally with my addiction to unhealthy, processed, and sugary foods. I'm still fighting those cravings but I know with enough determination I can make better habits and soon enough, it will be easy to say no to the chocolate cake on the kitchen counter. That is so not an easy thing to do.

Breakfast

I made a fruity green smoothie with frozen, ripened mango and mixed greens - just 2 ingredients.

~ Mighty Mango Green Smoothie ~

1 ripened mango, sliced into chunks and frozen

2 handfuls of mixed greens

In my personal, serving sized blender, I blended the mango and mixed greens together and added just enough filtered water to get a nice consistency.

Breakfast is served!

Lunch and Dinner

I was so loving the mango smoothie, I made a second one for lunch =)

Then, for dinner, I was in the mood for some roasted butternut squash. I usually have to force myself to prepare butternut squash before it spoils but once I take the first bite, I wonder why I didn't cook it sooner. I just love its sweet, nutty flavor...

~ Mashed Butternut Squash ~

1 butternut squash

almonds, sliced, optional

vegan butter, optional

cinnamon, optional

To prepare, I sliced one butternut squash in half lengthwise and baked it in the oven at 375 degrees for about 45 minutes. Once cooled, I scooped out the flesh of the squash and mashed it like mashed potatoes. I didn't feel the need to add butter to mine but butternut squash and butter are like two peas in a pod! Next, I roasted some sliced almonds and sprinkled them on top along with some cinnamon.
