Healthy Shamrock Shake

March 16, 2017 by Jackie Vega, RDN

A friend of mine posted a rather disturbing article on FaceBook about how much sugar is in the Shamrock shake from McDonald’s.  All I can say is: Wow! Growing up, I can remember getting it during this time of year and I thought it was awesome. Don’t get me wrong here, my mom was (still …

Cherry Nut Protein Shake

March 16, 2016 by Jackie Vega, RDN

For the last 4-5 years I have been using a lower end high-powered blender. I loved it for the first few years but being a dietitian, meal planner and someone who luuuuvs her shakes, that blender has been through a lot of shakes. For the most part, that was the extent of it, just fruit smoothies …

A Kids Favorite: Peanut Butter and Jelly Smoothie

June 19, 2015 by Jackie Vega, RDN

We have been making smoothies since before the kids were even conceived so I have been trying combination after combination for some time.  I remember giving them green smoothies when they were around a year old each, where I would simply add spinach, water and a variety of frozen fruit.  Talk about devour! The past …

Ginger Mango Coconut Smoothie

April 14, 2015 by Jackie Vega, RDN

After a weekend of running activities as well as the run itself, you may think I would be “run down.” No way! Especially when it comes to living so close to the beach.  Since my initial move to Florida in ’96 I have grown to love the beach more each year.  And now, since our …

Calcium Packed Smoothies

June 21, 2014 by Jackie Vega, RDN

I love a good smoothie as a workout recovery as well as a healthy sweet alternative.  Typically I will use almond milk as the base.  But with all of the information out there I am sure there are more people confused about dairy consumption.  Should we continue with dairy from a cow or switch to …

Lemon Balm Smoothie

June 12, 2014 by Jackie Vega, RDN

After a hard morning workout, this lemon balm smoothie is my way to start off the day, and since my kids love it too, we sometimes split it for a great afternoon snack! It is hot outside in most parts of the country during this month and the next few to come.  During the hot months, …
