To honour RBC Bluesfest Fevers / LCD Soundsystem concert day spectacular (Wednesday July 12th, 2017 y'all), I'm posting my recipe AND interview with Fevers from my show Eva Bee's Jamboree from back in the day. Enjoy (and see recipe below). And if you're like me and hate overly expensive festival food, make this and pack yourself a cute picnic!
September is in full swing and it can definitely feel a bit jarring.
Whether or not you have children or were on vacation for the last little bit, there can still be some adjustment. You and/or the people around you ramp up for another season packed full of holiday season prep, new adventures and education. It's wise to give yourself some TLC and grounding even if you feel like you don't have time.
I've planted myself a garden a few times over the years with some pretty good success. Nothing close to the farmers I've interviewed, OBVIOUSLY, but I've always loved the connection it brings me to nature.
During my first day at Ballymaloe Cookery School's 12 week program we planted a lettuce seedling. They thought it was important to let us see how much energy and time goes into making our food.
I thought this was brilliant! I think everyone should give gardening a chance, even if it's just herbs!
I was so happy to develop this recipe for all of you since it uses mint, a herb that goes WILD in the garden with some kale and cocoa nibs.
Mint Chocolate Chip Smoothie
Serves 1
1 cup Cashew Milk
1.5 Frozen Bananas
10 Mint Leaves
1/2 cup Kale Leaves
2 tsp Cocoa Nibs
Honestly, mint chocolate chip ice cream is my #1 flava (ok, besides cherry maybe..) so this smoothie is such a #&$+ing treat!
I hope you enjoy!
