Fit & Fab Living Fruity Spinach Salad

Light and Lemony Fruit Dip

If you follow this blog, then I’m sure you can see it’s missing a few things like the wonderful cartoon header a talented graphics artist created for me.

This week was upgrade time for WordPress and the theme I use. Consequently – broken! Don’t we love our technology?

Hang in there with me while I work it out, [...]

Refreshing Almond and Berry Smoothie

I’ve put my husband in charge of the smoothie making. He was reluctant at first, but after he got his chance to play with the Monster, I think I have him on board now.

The Monster is our Health Master. It’s an emulsifier blender that does it all. I’m not kidding! It chops, blends, purees, and even [...]

The yogurt came from my yogurt maker, so it’s free of additives or preservatives. It’s so fresh and creamy. Add some sweet fruit and crunchy walnuts, who wouldn’t want that [...]

Ruby Red Rhubarb Sauce

Ruby Red Rhubarb Sauce

This time of year there are so many fresh foods to choose from! A coworker brought in rhubarb from her garden the other day. This isn’t something I’ve planted in my garden, so I was happy to take some off her hands.

My current Challenge of the Month restricts me from making pie, [...]

Fruit Sauce

Fruit For Sauce

I always have leftover fruit that isn’t so far gone I have to throw it in the compost bin, but still not fresh enough to eat. Most of this fruit can be made into a sauce. Last night I had apples, mandarin oranges, and a very ripe mango. I chopped them all up [...]
