Apple Aloe Tart Green Juice



Is it a smoothie or a juice? The consistency is more juice like.  But it was not made in a juicer.  You decide.  The consistency is a cool one, and is almost in layers.  The denser part of the juice settles to the bottom while the fluffy cloud like foam remains at the top.  It tastes delicious!!

 Why Aloe? Ah the benefits.  Aids in Acid Reflux and Indigestion, calms the Esophagus from irritation, great for digestion, a sour tummy, and amazing for skin and hair.  Often the holistic and natural remedy for Acid Reflux or Indigestion is Aloe.

WHAT YOU WILL NEED:
1 large handful of spinach
1 cup skinless cucumber
a squeeze or two lemon juice from a half of a lemon
3-4 slices of Granny Smith apple (less then half of an apple)
1 Tbsp. Aloe Vera Juice
1 serving of your powder Probiotic
1/2 cup water
3-4 ice cubes

TIPS:
-The more Green apple you put in the more tart it will be.  Start off with 2-3 slices, and then add in as you go along (with a taste test of course)
-Sometimes apple can be grainy, so make sure you blend it for a longer amount of time.
-Adding in your Probiotic is a great way to get it in!  Especially in the morning.  Faster absorption, better effects and tasteless in a drink.
-If you don't have Aloe Vera Juice, try the Gel or the actual plant.
-Measurements do not need to be exact.  Play.  Have confidence in your instincts and see what comes out.

DIRECTIONS:
-Add the spinach, cucumber, lemon juice, Aloe Vera juice, Probiotic, water and 2-3 slices of the apple and blend until desired consistency.
-Taste to see if tart enough.  If not add more apple.
-Blend again.
-Add ice cubes and blend again.

Serves 1 large beautiful green drink or 2 smaller ones.

Enjoy! xx Julie

Not All Advil Is Gluten-Free!!!

After last night's POST , GF Advil was on my mind and I decided to call Advil/Pfizer this morning to get some more clarification.  In response to my post last night I advised through the website that Advil Liqui-gels, Advil Migraine and Advil Liqui-Gels PM contain a wheat derivative.  After my phone call with a lovely representative I received more information. - ALL ADVIL LIQUI-GELS contain a wheat derivative .   ALL LIQUI-GELS.  So stop these immediately if you are taking the Liqui-gels.  You maybe getting sick from a medication rather then a food and this is so important to recognize!  Just steer clear of Liqui-Gels. -ALL FORMS OF ADVIL MIGRAINE contain gluten .  There is no further information if it is just the Liqui-Gels or the Tablets, Caplets and Gel-Caps.  Pfizer does not have this info therefore they informed me to steer clear of all Advil Migraine pills. Here is what IS GLUTEN-FREE FROM ADVIL: All Advil Tablets, Gel...

Hot Chocolate Coffee

Sometimes I feel like there are days only chocolate would understand.  And following a strict Paleo diet does not allot for chocolate eating.  Especially chocolate with added dried cane sugar.  And especially in abundance.  Of course special occasions allot for this type of activity, but today is not that day. So how do you put a sock in your chocolate craving?  Well, simply remove your sock from your foot and put it in your chocolate.  I'm kidding!  Please use a clean sock! Kidding again!!… Often, chocolate cravings can get the best of us, so I created a delicious recipe to kick my craving and your craving.  It's delicious.  And it's perfect for the lover of coffee and chocolate.  Taking a sip of this sent signals of pure decadence to my brain.

Magnolia Bakery-Cream Cheese Frosting

Another amazing frosting recipe from Magnolia!  I swear by these recipes, this is my go-to book for icing when I bake!! 1 pound (two 8-ounce packages) cream cheese, softened and cut into small pieces 6 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened and cut into small pieces 1 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract 5 cups sifted confectioners' sugar In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth, about 3 minutes.  Add the vanilla and beat well.  Gradually add the sugar, 1 cup at a time, beating continuously until smooth and creamy.  Cover and refrigerate icing for 2-3 hours, but no longer, to thicken before using. Makes enough for one 2-or 3-layer 9-inch cake Enjoy! xoxo Julie www.goodiegoodiegluten-free.blogspot.com
