Banana & Nectarine Smoothie

We have some fruit trees in our garden, and the nectarines are ready for munching....sweet, juice, organic nectarines, yummy. :D  So I thought I'd try a smoothie with them, and it turned out really good.

3 bananas
3 nectarines
1/2 cup rice milk
3 tbs ground flaxseeds

Blend together and enjoy!  Makes 2 medium - large & thick smoothies.

Garden Salad with Feta & Mushrooms

I like to make this as a side-dish or as dinner if we've had a big lunch or late lunch that day.  It doesn't matter how much of what you throw it, so just use your discretion:

Salad:
mixed lettuce leaves
tomatoes
celery
cucumber
raw sliced white mushrooms
green pepper
plain feta cheese
sunflower seeds
pumpkin seeds

Dressing:
olive oil
himalayan crystal salt

Mix together all the salad ingredients, drizzle over some olive oil & sprinkle some salt and mix until everything is coated.  Mmmm. :)
