Lately it seems I’ve been putting more sugar and less nutrient rich foods into my body. Isn’t it strange how sometimes we eat so well and then all of a sudden we totally don’t?
Anyway, I’m at this place today where I’m not super hungry as I don’t eat supper this early, but I’m heading out in a bit so wanted to get something into my system. I’ll be honest, I headed into the kitchen intent on a coke, figuring a fizzy could tide me over for a few hours. And then I paused to check in with my body and realized, that I didn’t actually want a coke right now (the same thing happened last night, yay for small victories!), but I was really craving some fruit, in smoothie form.
Because it contains melon I find it super hydrating, hence the name. I kinda just came up with it on the spot based on what I had on hand. The great thing about smoothies is that the recipes are flexible.
Hydration Smoothie
a handful golden melon
a handful watermelon
a handful spinach
