Green Slime & Music

I always wanted to try making my own veggie shakes, so I decided to just try it this weekend. Here's a quick recipe I threw together, and despite it's vomit-inducing taste, it's extremely healthy for you.

1 cup kale
1 cup spinach
1 cup vanilla almond milk
1 Tbsp ground flaxseed
1/2 kiwi
1 banana

Blend it all together, and then blend some more. I steam the kale first to soften it up a bit. Believe me you'll need to blend this for a good couple of minutes if you want a decent consistency. I didn't blend it enough the first time I made it and ended up chewing pieces of the kale and spinach. Not fun, at all.

So in keeping with the original idea for my blog, here's some music I've come across yesterday that I can't stop listening to. It's very relaxing and very deep. Buddha Bar has some amazing music from all around the world and their style is definitely not something you hear every day.

Enjoy!

  2. Seriously, a BANANA?! Added to the kale?? AND YOU DRANK IT????

    Someone, please hand this man an award.

    Yah, that Buddha Bar song is nice. Not sure about that man with the accent. I keep imagining Apu. Kinda throws it all off for me. I think if someone with a deeper, rougher voice did the talking, the effectiveness of the song would increase exponentially. And I'm still liking that initial Buddha bar song you sent me. (Which I lost the link to -- cue for you to send me that again, please and thanks...throw in burgers, while you are at it, and skip the kale drink, okay?)

  3. Glad to see my trip to a local internet cafe (i.e. Second Cup) was worth it, healthy recipe although I don't know how you drank it and amazing songs. :D
