I recently got a new Vitamix, so now I am constantly thinking of different types of smoothies, soups, and nut butters I can blend 🙂 It’s so powerful and awesome!

I realize that smoothies and other meal replacements/sweets/snacks are frowned upon during the Whole30, but I am modifying a bit since I’m pregnant. I usually don’t use smoothies as meal replacements anyway, since they never fill me up. This has been a great way for me to get some extra vitamins and healthy fats in between meals during this Whole30 round. This particular combo is pretty delicious and I have been making it on repeat!

My favorite collagen is Vital Proteins – you can find more info by clicking on the picture below:
