Smoothies are a great way of getting more fruits, veggies and nutrients into your day. This one has a bonus of being great for sleep!
This recipe has a natural source of sleep nutrients - Montmorency tart cherries! They’re naturally rich in melatonin, tryptophan (the amino acid responsible for the infamous “turkey coma”), vitamin C, vitamin A, and potassium, plus a bit of Magnesium.
Give it a try and make sure to share it with a friend who has trouble getting their zzz’s!
Throwing a healthy salad together is easy! Try this superfood coleslaw recipe for your next family get together, BBQ or potluck.
