Veggie of the Month

March 1st, 2013 at 02:28 am

One of my goals for 2013 is to try a new veggie or fruit every month. Well today I had butternut squash for the first time. I actually made a quick soup of it in my Vitamix. It tasted pretty good, a little sweeter than I thought it would be.

As some of you know, I often drink green smoothies or juices quite often as well. Today I juiced collard greens for the first time. I eat collards but never juiced them. I added celery,cucumber and an apple as well. It wasn't bad at all and I loved the color was dark green

    Great job...I love butternut squash. I have not had collard greens though. Just realizing I didn't get my disconnect day in this month. Oops!

    I love butternut squash, as well! If you can find it, I also recommend trying a mangosteen. They are a purple, leathery skinned fruit with what looks like a white mandarin orange on the inside. AMAZING. The Asian grocery near our house sells it from time to time, and it always leads to a ruckus at our house... we love it! I just wish we had some insurance of finding it regularly, and that it was a little cheaper.
