Frugal Crafty Home Blog Hop 59

January 19, 2014 by Carrie

My family has been drinking green smoothies like they’re going out of style.  I created an original recipe for a Green Smoothie with tons of veggies, lower calories and lots of taste.  

You can’t taste the spinach AT.ALL.  All you can taste is the strawberries and banana!

This green smoothie tastes AWESOME, has tons of spinach in it with only 119 calories per serving!

Never has it been so easy to get my kids to eat drink veggies.

My kids LOVE this low calorie green smoothie!

Wish I would have discovered this years ago!

Enough about me….now it’s time to party!

Frugal Crafty Home Blog Hop has 5 hosts which means your posts will get a 5 times the exposure!  Your posts will show up on my blog as well as Jordan from Lily White. Designs, Amy From A Blossoming Life, Sara from Sneaky Spoons, and Katie from The Casual Craftlete.

Here’s some of my favorite link ups from last week:

One Krieger Chick shared her no sew words of the year towels.  I can so relate to her struggles because I have the same ones!  So refreshing to see how she’s trying to pause and breathe.  I need that!

$3 DIY Charm Necklace by the DIY Dreamer

Inexpensive-Necklace

Love Bakes Good Cakes shared this Buffalo Ranch Popcorn recipe last week.  Talk about popcorn with a kick!
