Low maintenance recipes

Hello Lovelies!

Venessa and I have been busy this week attending Book Expo America. It’s been a lot of fun, but it’s our excuse for the lack of posts. Venessa is off in Philadelphia as well - So, forgive us!

Since I’m not on my everyday routine, I haven’t had time to go to the grocery store. This results in a meal of the randomest combinations. To jump start my morning, I threw together a smoothie with what was left in my freezer and leftover spinach from a salad.



We’ll call this Julia’s Green Smoothie:
-Handful of spinach
-8 frozen strawberries
-A handful of froze peaches and mangos
-Half of banana
-1/2 cup of unsweetened almond milk
-A few ice cubes 


I’ve also been trying to find some recipes that don’t include a lot of ingredients for weeks like these. Recipes that I skim the list and know I have everything in my fridge & cupboards. I found this, and it sounds so easy & so yummy...
