Spring Has Sprung!

If you haven't attended one of my nutrition classes this year, then don't wait any longer!

Your body is giving you the signals that it deserves better, you know that's true. 
Time for some Spring Cleaning!

This Saturday, March 26th
I will be teaching 
The 21 Day Detox Class 
from 10am to 12pm.
You can sign up right here on this little blog. 
I need you to sign up by Friday at 12pm,
so that I know how many people to plan for 
and then I will go out and buy all of the freshness we will be eating on Saturday.

Also, 
March 31st will be another exciting event at our facility in Orem
ELEVATE Your Life Workshop
with

Kristie Rosser
It's FREE to the masses.
She will be going over all of the medical reasons it is good for us to detox our bodies.
Last time she came, we packed the house.
She is a well full of wellness knowledge! 

You don't want to to miss either of these events!

On another note, I had the best time down in Moab for the Canyonlands Half Marathon.
It was crazy windy, there were times I felt like I was running in place and getting no where fast.
But, the scenery along the route was beautiful. It was well organized and the volunteers were exceptional. 
We had fun hanging out after the run while eating, hiking  and watching the BYU game.
I have many more pictures on my other camera that I will post, but here are a few from my phone:


Why is this always the scene right before a race begins?
Peace out.

Peace Tree Cafe was YUM!

Sweet Luck!

My ancestry from both me ma and pop is mostly Scottish and English,

 but thanks to the Irishness passed on to my family by my spunky 
Mother-in-Law, Peggy Lea Monahan and her kin,
We claim to be Irish today.

Right now,
I'm busy making all of my own raw 
energy gels, electrolyte drinks and energy bites, for my race this weekend in Moab. 
I'm also making many snacks and meals for the rest of the time.
Apparently, I will not be hungry one second if I have anything to do with it!
(I'll post recipes after the weekend)

I'm so excited to take off, head south, munch on goodness along the way, laugh with friends, listen to sweet tunes, arrive and then pull up at the KOA, hook up our camper and then sleep like a champ in a sleeping bag snuggled up to my hunky husband and then wake up bright and early, drink in the clean air, head to the starting line and then run like the wind!

You can tell where my mind has been wandering today, while working in my kitchen. 
I almost forgot that it was St. Patricks Day today.

To celebrate today, I'm also going to whip up some of our favorite foods that are filled with 
greens and goodness.
You should too!

Enjoy a Green Smoothie:

Blend
4 C mango
2 T lime juice
1 banana
1 leaf of collard, swiss chard or kale
1/4 C purified water
serves 2-4

Have 2 bowls full of greens!

A yummy blend of these:
1C mixed green lettuces
1 avocado sliced
1 T raw sesame seeds
1 T raw pumpkin seeds
 Mix a little mustard up with some balsamic vinegar and top the salad.


Mix in a blender these:
1 cooked zucchini
1 stalk celery
1 T red onion
1 T EVOO
5 basil leaves
1/2 t sea salt
1/4 avocado
4 C pure water
Heat up after blended is needed, otherwise enjoy it at room temperature.


May the Luck O' the Irish shine upon you this day!

Health and Happiness,

Cody
