I want to share something with you today that you might think is a little weird but it seriously makes me feel so good and so happy.  It’s a recipe for this little smoothie that I like to drink in the morning.  It’s super healthy and it’s only like 92 calories.  PLUS it only takes about 2 minutes to make.  This is perfect for a pre-workout breakfast or if you’re not a breakfast person it’s something to get your metabolism going in the morning.  It’s perfect for someone who needs to get more fruits and veggies in their diet but has a hard time getting them in traditional ways.  I couldn’t take a picture of the finished product because it seriously looks so gross.  It looks like brown sludge.  BUT if you can get past how it looks you’ll love how it tastes!

This is my new favorite snack and treat and health food all in one!  Only 100 calories! #FlipTopFrenzyFree

The other thing that I’ve been loving lately is using the brand new C&H® Quick Dissolve Superfine Sugar in the smoothie.  The cool new flip-top canisters make sweetening your smoothies simple and neat.  The recloseable lid keeps the sugar fresh and the mess out of the kitchen.  Because the sugar crystals are superfine it dissolves very easily…which is perfect to blend into your breakfast smoothies, lemonade or hot drinks!  This new product is so helpful in making a frenzy free morning happen at my house.  We all know the hour before the kids get off to school and parents get off to work is super hectic.  Why not make life a little easier by using the new C&H® Quick Dissolve Superfine Sugar?

C&H® Pourable Golden Brown Sugar and Quick Dissolve Superfine Sugar...perfect for a frenzy free morning
I love the size and the sturdy shape of these new products.  They fit so perfectly in my accessible spice cupboard, making my morning frenzy-free!  The other cool product that I’ve been using for my morning oatmeal is the C&H® Pourable Golden Brown Sugar.  When I first saw this product I wasn’t sure how brown sugar was going to be “pourable.” But it is!  It doesn’t have any clumps and it doesn’t get hard either.  It’s so perfect for your morning hot cereals.  I love eating oatmeal in the morning and this just makes it super simple to sweeten it up a bit.  My favorite is a little bit of brown sugar and sliced bananas.
Pourable brown sugar is so easy for your oatmeal in the morning!
