This is a bright and fresh mint and lemon spritzer, perfect for spring and heralding in gardening season.

The garden is coming back to life! This weekend I’ll be buying some tomato plants (finally), and all the rain has caused my carrots to finally get going. However, one thing that never really died is now back and better than ever: mint. I think that if I didn’t cut the runners back, we’d soon have a backyard full of mint instead of grass.

Easy Berry Smoothie Bowl

March 3, 2016 by 918 Plate Leave a Comment

I like to make a good smoothie bowl when I need something easy. They are typically the most convenient when Justin is studying for the day and I’ve got to fend for myself for lunch. I was having one of those Saturdays recently, when I found all the fruits I had lovingly hand-chopped and frozen in bags for the winter. I told myself I should use them before they get all yucky or summer came and I’d have more berries to freeze (whichever came first).

This berry smoothie bowl is a quick and easy lunch or healthy snack!

Strawberry Banana Peach Malk Smoothie

September 10, 2015 by 918 Plate Leave a Comment

The thing I love about smoothies is that they are so versatile. Eat them in a bowl when they’re thick, or drink them down when they’re thin. You can throw in whatever you want, and you don’t even know you’re being healthy. I probably smoothie about twice a month, just as an easy after work snack or dinner, depending on how I feel! It’s good to know I’m getting the nutrients from the “green stuff” without having to eat 25 salads! I used a new almond milk I want to tell you about, called MALK. MALK is a Texas-based family-owned company that has recently gotten their “big break” and can be found in Whole Foods in the following states: Louisiana, Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas! One of their co-founders, Joel Canada, came to visit the foodies of Tulsa. I showed him Elote and he let me take a sample of all three flavors! He said I didn’t owe him anything, but I thought that a shout out was the very least I could do for such a cool family business. The pecan maple is my favorite flavor, and would also be great in this smoothie. It’s also great in coffee, I’ve heard.

What I love about MALK (and what everyone else seems to love, too) is that it has a CUP of almonds in each bottle. Many almond milks on the market today can’t claim that (Almond Breeze is currently in a lawsuit for not actually having a significant amount of almonds in their product. Good work, guys.). They also have additives, such as carrageenan, which is an emulsifier with a bad rap. MALK is water, almonds, salt and vanilla – Just like if you were to make it at home, but saves you the soaking time and the dirty blender….

Cucumber Basil Gin Fizz

Cucumber Basil Gin Fizz

This gin fizz is a perfect drink for a summer night whether you’re lounging outside watching fireflies (while trying not to be eaten by mosquitoes), or just sitting inside watching TV. With 3 local ingredients, this is an ideal representation of farm-to-table at home!

The basil & cucumbers are, of course, from our garden. I finally think our cucumbers are dwindling, because it has been so hot. So with that, Cucumber Month is coming to a close. I had big dreams of also including refrigerator pickles, but honestly, we’re pretty pickled out over here….
