Strawberry Smoothie Recipe with Coconut Flakes: Delicious Healthy Treat for Summer or as an After School Snack for Kids
 
Keep scrolling for the most delicious coconut strawberry smoothie recipe! 
 
Just mention the word summer and loads of women have the thought of trying on swimsuits and strutting their stuff in shorts, tanks and little dresses. In my mind, I always think smoothies!  Strawberry smoothies to be exact!
 
I’ve had several of you ask me about how I lost the baby weight after I had Finn. I’ve shared a ton about how I’ve relied heavily on FASTer Way to Fat Loss, a good fitness routine and a solid meal plan in order to get back to feeling like my best self!
 
I wholeheartedly believe that “being skinny” is not and should not be the goal. Sure feeling good on the outside is important and it’s nice to look good and feel good, but… it’s also about lifestyle, mindset, eating right, and taking care of your body, body image and being fueled well enough to keep up with that sweet baby.
 
I’ve had to figure out what works for me in this new life phase in order to continue planning and eating in a healthy manner. When I worked in an office, I used to pack my lunch each day and/or we’d cook together in our kitchen and everyone around me was doing Whole30 or Paleo so it held me accountable. Now that I’m going back and forth between work and Burn Bootcamp, school drop offs & pick ups and more, meals can get a little hectic.
 
The temptation is more real than ever to grab something on the go at or snack on what the boys are snacking on. You might not think so, but those little calories here and there can add up! I find that with a little extra, intentional planning I don’t feel the need to snack on things that aren’t great choices.  Added protein really helps with that too! When I have meals with added protein, I am fuller for longer so I’m not feeling hungry on the fly.
 
Grab my protein cheat sheet right HERE if you’re looking for some ways to easily add in more protein!

    One of my favorite quick and healthy lunches (or snack) spreading some hummus on a turkey slice and wrapping it around a few sliced bell peppers! So yummy!

      That’s a great idea, Mary Beth! I like wrapping turkey or roast beef around pickles too although I hadn’t done the hummus yet…will have to try that!

    It would be helpful to have measurements in the recipe. I don’t know how much to add of everything except the banana and protein powder.
