About Me

I started this blog to keep track of my kitchen creations. I love cooking and eating. In 2008 I was diagnosed with RA. Food started becoming a huge problem. I needed to find a better way to eat the flavors I love. All the recipes I create are driven by my desire to eat good food that won't create extra pain and inflammation in my internal ecosystem. While the recipes are wholesome, the language is not. I swear. I use the word 'fuck'. A lot! I make no apologies for that. It's just a fair warning. I'm raw and real. Happy cooking! Even happier eating! Cheers! Angie

Caramel Apple Smoothie

Fuck yeah!  Fall is here!  Pumpkins, apples, squash, grapes, colorful landscapes, Halloween........what's not to love about this season?!  As much as I love the heat and sun of the summer, the sights and smells of fall make this season, by far my favorite time of the year!  I had so much fun in the kitchen experimenting and trying to get the flavors of fall into something edible!

INGREDIENTS:
1 cup of unsweetened nut milk
1 scoop of vanilla protien powder
1 teaspoon of pure vanilla
1 tablespoon of cinnamon 
2 tablespoons of pure maple syrup
1 banana
1/4 cup cooked cooked sweet potatoes
4 pitted Medjool dates
1-2 apples cut (depending the size)

You know what to do!  Blend the fuck out of that shit!  You can and should leave the skins on the apples. You should also leave the skin on the sweet potatoes when you cook them. Once it's blended, add some ice and blend again.  

Cheers!  Angie
