Strawberry-Grapefruit Smoothie
Makes three 1 3/4-cup servingsI admit that I may be biased because I’ve been on a grapefruit kick recently, but I really enjoyed this smoothie. It was both sweet and tart, and even though it only has a few ingredients, the fiber from the apple makes it filling. This is a “big batch” recipe designed to be made ahead of time to provide one person with three days worth of smoothies. You can store in the fridge and either shake well or give a whirl in the blender before serving each smoothie.
INGREDIENTS
1 grapefruit, peeled, seeded, and chopped
2 cups hulled fresh or frozen strawberries
1 sweet apple (such as Honeycrisp or Pink Lady), cored and chopped
1-inch fresh ginger, peeled and chopped
INSTRUCTIONS
Step One: Combine all ingredients, plus 1 cup water, in a blender and process until smooth.

Not only is it calming, mentally, but tea also helps keep your digestive tract in motion. Yes, so you can poop and stay healthy! Try having a glass (or two) before going to bed.

Hey Fran, hey!
So, I’m a huge fan of your blog, and I’ve been reading up on various sources that you use as well to find the best styling methods and products for my hair. You def inspired me to do my big chop, throw out my products with sulfates and harsh chemicals, and move toward clean(er) eating. I started P90X a few weeks ago, and I feel great! I love Kinky Curly Knot Today leave-in, coconut oil, JBCO, and Shea Moisture Restorative conditioner. I’ve done twist outs, coil outs, and the shingling method to see what diff styles work and look good on my hair so far. I LOVE the re-invented me! Thank you so much for the help! :)
Q:Hey Fran Hey! I can't find the words to express just how much I appreciate you and your blog! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I am planning to incorporate coconut, castor, grapeseed and olive oil into my hair regimen! I've been doing a lot of research on each oil but there's so much different information out there, I'm confused as to what each oil is best used as. :( I recently discovered "Spectrum" have you used this brand before? also is refined or unrefined better for hair? Thank you!!
Spectrum is awesome! It’s my favorite brand of Coconut Oil. Refined vs Unrefined is in regards to how much processing the oil went through before being packaged. Unrefined means there was little to no processing. That’s usually best for our hair/skin because the nutrients haven’t been zapped out! It contains more of the health benefits we’re looking for.
Thanks for the love, beautiful!
