Our Family’s Favorite Morning Smoothie Recipes!

by Courtney El-Ghoul June 12, 2019
written by Courtney El-Ghoul June 12, 2019

If you have a picky eater I am sure you will relate to this post. My twins are both pretty finicky when it comes to food, but one of them refuses pretty much all fruits and veggies. After multiple attempts at a lot of different smoothie recipes, I finally found one they both love. I even make it for myself with a few substitutions. We prepare it together in our ninja blender every morning which they both get super excited about. It feels great knowing they are getting their greens in for the day, and it has become apart of our morning routine that they look forward to.

For the kids:

  • 1 Cup of spinach
  • 1 banana
  • 1 Tbsp Almond Butter
  • ½ Cup Frozen Pineapple
  • ¼ Cup Chia Seeds
  • ½ Cup Unsweetened almond milk

For mine:

  • I cut the almond milk in half and just do ¼ Cup
  • 2 Stalks of celery
  • 1 scoop collagen peptides

About Me

About Me

Courtney El-Ghoul

I am a lover of travel, beauty secrets junkie, and fashion enthusiast… I am the mother to amazing twin girls; Nahla & Ava and wife to my husband Khalil. My journey has been a real adventure. In my not so distant history I was an Executive Sales Manager for a Fortune 500 Company. Then - POOF - I am a stay at home mom for my two amazing daughters. It has truly been a blessing, but it has also been messy. Now it’s been 4 years and my girls are getting older and more independent and I want to use this extra time to share parts of my story that I think will help support other women on their journey through balancing motherhood and personal identity.

Family photos are different this year, but we made the best of it. Thank goodness for self timers🤗 

After multiple failed attempts with the pups, we at least got a decent one with the 4 of us. I will say we had a lot of laughs and credit to @khalil_knows for moving all the pumpkins to the backyard. The sun was blazing on our front porch which led to a last minute change of plans🤷🏻‍♀️🤣

And just like that, they are in kindergarten😭🎒🙀

Like what??? So crazy how the time flys by. I couldn’t be more proud of them. They have really blossomed the past 6 months, and it’s been really amazing to see how much they have grown both physically & mentally. We are 🙏 for a safe & healthy school year! Oh & did you notice Ava’s new 💇🏻‍♀️

Can you believe summer is almost over!?! I always find that my hair needs a quick re-boot at the end of summer. Even though this summer has been... different, to say the least. I am sure some of you may still have been to the beach, added some highlights, or just been swimming. We all know pool chemicals and sunshine can do a number on our hair.⁣

Time for an update on Ava & Nahla!!! 👯‍♀️ Time for an update on Ava & Nahla!!! 👯‍♀️⁣

With everything that has been going on, I have been trying to figure out activities I can do with the girls that are safe socially and health-wise. Classes that are typically indoor classes,  like dance, have been hard because being in the studio with all of their friends is such a big part of it. So, I've been thinking about what we can do outside...⁣
⁣
One thing that they both have obsessed with, for forever now, is horses!  But, I wasn’t sure if it was just another phase, like Elsa & unicorns. Because of that, I didn’t want to commit them to take lessons. Well, they have certainly proven without a doubt that this is something they are both passionate about. They seriously pretend to be horses all day long, ha! Instead of a kids' show, they will ask if they can watch horse shows on youtube. It is adorable. (It is also nice that they BOTH seem equally as excited about it)⁣
⁣
So, we finally made the jump and signed them up for riding lessons. It has been so amazing watching them learning to ride and work with the horses. It’s what they look forward to all week. Even the early mornings and long drives don't even seem to bother them at all. I love seeing them care for the horses and show so much love and interest in learning. ⁣
⁣
I am excited to see what the future will bring and if this is something they will do forever! 🐎⁣
⁣
... I've gotta admit that it looks super fun and now even I want to take lessons!! HA⁣

⁣It's time for a Fall Book List! ⁣📚 ⁣ You ⁣It's time for a Fall Book List! ⁣📚
⁣
You guys know I love reading so as we enter into a new season I have been on the hunt to get some new books queued up. Reading has been such a nice distraction from this doom and gloom,  hasn't 2020 been some real crazy town stuff!? ⁣😳
⁣
Seriously...  is this really happening???⁣
⁣
So, my goal is to read as many new books as I can before the new year! 🥂⁣
⁣
But I will start with these five:⁣
⁣
🖤 The Bookish Life of Nina Hill - @abbiwaxman⁣
🖤 The Girl with the Louding Voice - @abidare_author⁣
🖤 The Vanishing Half - @britrbennett⁣
🖤 A Star is Bored -@byronlanedotcom⁣
🖤 Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood - @trevornoah⁣
⁣
These are all-new authors for me and they all have really good reviews so I am super excited to get moving on them! ⁣
⁣
I am going to start with #bornacrime because we already have it. Khalil just finished it and told me it was really good so I am trusting him on this one 🤞⁣

Where were you 6-months ago, before #covid19 turne Where were you 6-months ago, before #covid19 turned our lives upside down? ⛵️⛅️⁣
⁣
@khalil_knows and I were celebrating our 10-year wedding anniversary while sailing the British Virgin Islands with @sail3sisters. At that moment I didn't think it was possible to feel any more grateful for our love, and the life we have built than I did right then. Boy, was I wrong? 6-months into a global pandemic I can say without a doubt... that I am 10x more grateful. ⁣
⁣
I remember when we booked this trip we were thinking like... OMG, it's just going to be the two fo us for a WHOLE WEEK!? Two weeks, alone, on a boat, in paradise... that is what we were worried about. 😂😂😂⁣
Cut to today... almost 6-months of being just the two of us, with the twins, and everyone working from home... let just say we have both had our moments. But, there is no one I would rather be navigating rough seas or this new world with. ⁣
