The best recipe for Simply Spirulina
With the exception of not being with my sister and her family, this was hands down the best Christmas I have had since I was a little kid.
The saying is true…
“I used to think being a kid on Christmas was the best thing ever but it turns out having kids on Christmas is!”

Notes
Spirulina is a great addition to smoothies. It doesn’t have much of a taste and it is a superfood powerhouse of the strongest kind! I’ve talked a little about spirulina here if you want to read up. It’s a great way to balance your body after days (or weeks!) of celebrating! You can get fancy and add frozen berries, spinach, chia seeds, etc. However, sometimes simplicity is best 🙂
