Healthy Living Summit, I’m going! & a Weird, But Good Recipe

I am so so so so sooooo beyond excited to have the Healthy Living Summit coming to my home town next weekend! I get to meet lots of blogger friends that I’ve never actually met in person. AND get to see reconnect with some bloggers like LAUREN from Me and the Mountains! I am really excited about the agenda especially the cocktail party at the Guthrie. I love that place! I live about 7 miles outside of downtown, so all of the events are pretty convenient for me and easy to get to! 

I’m of course excited for all of the great workshops and workouts, too! On Saturday night, Molly (one of the HLS planners) and I are hosting a mini mingle at Crave in Downton Minneapolis. we’d love for you to join! Also, if you are going to be in attendance- let me know and leave your Twitter handle so I can stalk you (jk jk jk jk jk). Onto weirder things. Quinoa + Kefir + Berries.

This combo may sound weird, but it actually the best thing ever. It’s a superfood mega bowl. 3 all-stars: quinoa + kefir+ berries. You really can’t go wrong.

I have posted about kefir recently and I got a lot of comments like “It’s really expensive.” Well- I get mine from Trader Joe’s and it’s actually not badly priced at all! I want to say it’s under $3.00. Plus- it’s 4 servings, which makes each serving a whopping $0.75, WHICH is less than a Chobani.  Also, the serving size is 1 cup- but I never actually drink an entire cup at once. The reason I love kefir is because it is a drinkable probiotic. It sort of tastes like a tangy drinkable yogurt. Furthermore, it’s a complete protein just like quinoa! Check out this article I found that has all of its health benefits.

As for quinoa. The cheapest place I have been able to find quinoa is surprisingly Whole Foods. You can get a pound for like $3.79. At Target, it’s like $8.99. Hmph.

So enlighten me…

Are you going to HLS in Minneapolis?

Kefir- Love it, Hate it, Never Tried it?
