blended food mixes

we started with a green smoothie of

  • lettuce, green algae powder (chlorella), soaked almonds, raw brown rice protein powder, chia seeds
then with some other blends based on what we had in the house and what i was cooking for myself and Zac that day

  • young coconut flesh, banana, raw cashew
  • bok choy, quinoa, beluga lentils, pumpkin, green capsicum
  • bok choy, quinoa, red lentils, sweet potato, broccoli
  • red lentil, sweet potato, avocado
  • avocado, tahini, pumpkin
  • zucchini chickpeas, pumpkin, tahini
  • homemade baked beans (see earlier post ) and sweet potato

i often have soft steamed vege peieces like broccoli and pumpkin for jazz to have as finger food while spooning her the blends. even raw carrot sticks and celery sticks work a treat to give her something to gnaw on.

it's great to have a frozen stash of soaked and cooked legumes and quinoa so you can pop a chunk of them into the steamer with your vegies for the day's meal rather than having to cook a tiny amount each time.
