Isn’t it fun to grow your own? I have a small herb garden in my yard as well as a few raspberry bushes and a whole lot of blueberry bushes. Nothing tastes better:) Thank you for your comment.

I hope you like the healthy pancake recipe. Then, vary the dried fruit and nuts as you like. Enjoy!

Thanks for your comment. I, too, love buying really local produce at my Farmer’s Market. Let me know how you like the strawberry recipe…just today I harvested a big bunch of fresh mint from my own herb garden. Makes delicious tea!

Our farmers market starts in June. I’m going to try to make it every week this year.
Support the local farmers and everything is so much fresher. Tastes the difference.

I’m going to try the Balsamic Strawberries with Mint. Sound refreshing.

I have a small garden in the back yard. The vegetables tastes so much better. I am going to make a point to find a farmers market close to get what we can’t grow.

Your breakfast smoothie sounds like a great ‘wake up’. It’s also a good way to start the day with a blast of fruits and veggies. To answer your question, yes, frozen fruits without added sugar are every bit as nutritious as fresh – and affordable and convenient, too. Thank you for your comment!

I’ve been making a green smoothie for breakfast since the new year. I’ve been using fresh pineapple,avocado,spinach,kale and other fresh fruits. Are frozen fruits as good nutritionally as the fresh variety?

Hi Beth,
I agree about how important it is to eat breakfast every day. It takes some planning, a smart grocery store run and getting up in time to enjoy. I think when a ‘breakfast skipper’ gives it a try for just one week straight, they literally wake-up to the power of breakfast! Many thanks for your comment.

Hey Cindy! Great blog. I think people overlook breakfast far too much. Our society is in such a hurry, and I can respect that. But a good nutritious breakfast could take us so far! Keep up the great stuff!
