#FoodieGoth




#FoodieGoth Baby
The other day, whilst sporting my black and white 'legit' beanie and tricking myself into thinking I was going to start jogging, I began to talk to my dear husband about the new trend #healthgoth.
HealthGoth somehow got mistranslated between him and I and hence, #FoodieGoth was born.
My husband is a genius.
I now can wear all the black and white I want whilst concocting in the kitchen and actually be trending at the same time.

Anyways,

Today I bring you my first #GreenDrink (I know, I'm a little behind on food trends)

I smashed the following items up to create this awesome brew!

Kale - I don't know how much, like, two giant hand fulls. Kale doesn't taste like much to me so I took advantage of this and packed in a bunch of nutrients with little sacrifice to flavor.

Celery - NOM.COM! I love celery, I threw like 3 or 4 stalks in, this drink basically tastes like celery fruit, whatever that is...

The masterpiece 
Apples - Big Little Brother of mine (almost 6 ft, but 2 years younger) wandered in with a bag of apples, so I threw two in, this gave a huge boost to the flavor, but also added a lot of carbs. I'm not sure if that's true, I'm just making an educated guess...

BlueBerries - These little dudes were once considered a super food, until foods like kale and flax stepped up and made it cool to be healthy. I just kinda threw a few in, maybe a hand full an a half, keep in mind, I have little hands.

Ice - I ice everything. In fact, we were out of ice all day yesterday and not only did I end up severely dehydrated, refusing to drink warm temp water, but I actually dreamed of ice. Thankfully ice was restored to us this afternoon.


Any tips on what to do with the pulp? I don't want to waste it 'cause I hear there are magical things you can do with it, although it should probably be separated I imagine...


Baby is awake and beckoning, till next time!!
