Coffee Flavored Rice Milk Smoothie



6 oz. coffee yogurt
4 oz. vanilla or plain rice milk
4 oz. vanilla or plain soymilk!
1/2 small banana
3 ice cubes
chocolate syrup if desired

Pour all ingredients into a blender or Ninja.  Blend.  Drizzle chocolate on inside of glass.  Pour.  Enjoy!


I love, love, love making smoothies!  I love to experiment with different types of milk, fruits, yogurts and sometimes even nut butters.   I use this amazing Ninja system,  it's much less expensive than a Vitamix and is much nice than a traditional style blender.  I have a smoothie almost daily for breakfast or for lunch.

Gluten-Free Brownie Bites

I recently made Pamela's Brownie Mix to bring to a friends house for dessert.  I purchased mini cupcake liners which I have never used before.  I had my little guy line them up on a cookie sheet, I sprayed each liner lightly with a gf non-stick spray and spooned in the mix.  I followed Pamela's recipe for the fudgiest brownies and added pecans.  I baked the brownie bites for 10 minutes ate 350 degrees.  They were delicious, a huge hit, portable and no messy brownie pan to clean.
