A Note from Alicia:

I’ve believe it’s time that we – the smart, amazing women that we are – begin to recognize that the food we eat has the power to make or break us in very real ways. If what you eat actually creates your blood, your cells, your organs – you! – then let’s get smart and savvy about the quality of you that is being created!

I choose a whole, organic, vegetable and fruit focused way of eating because I feel my very best when I eat this way. I take things up a notch further when I infuse my meals with leafy greens, superfoods, and mood lifting ingredients. Why not eat in a way that supports the beautiful, dynamic, intelligent and sensual you?

This recipe is called “Happiness In A Glass” because I always feel super happy whenever I drink it. It’s rich, creamy, sweet, and infused with amazing superfoods like turmeric (great for inflammation and pain). It’s a gorgeous color, it’s full of amazing nutrition, and it’s uber refreshing too.

Boost your happiness levels with this superfood smoothie!
