Perfect Pumpkin Pie Mango Smoothie Ready to drink!

This perfect pumpkin pie mango smoothie is the perfect treat to kick the new year off with. The pumpkin paired with mango is such a fun and unexpected combination. I love this smoothie and it’s the perfect winter day treat for a little taste of summer.

When Melissa’s Produce sent me some Australian Mangoes I knew I wanted try a smoothie with one of them. I must say, Wow! These mangoes are perfect for smoothies! They are fiberless, creamy like a custard, sweet and super flavorful. These Australian beauties will shock you with their lusciousness! Perfect for smoothies, salads, salsas, or just all on its own!

Jan’s Health Bar: Fresh and Healthy Eats!

Jan’s Health Bar: Fresh and Healthy Eats!

By: Erin

After all the fried fair food and BBQ posts from the summer, it’s time to be good and have something a bit more on the healthier side, that is still very tasty and delicious. It’s fall now, but this week is supposed to warm up well into the 80’s again so I have the best place ever for you to go chill out at and relax. It’s Jan’s Health Bar in Huntington Beach (also in Costa Mesa)! It is just a jump, hop and a skip away from the beach! Located on Main Street, it is just a few short blocks away from the beach.

When Jan’s contacted me about heading over to try out their menu, I couldn’t refuse. Smoothies? Summer Salads? A refreshing Chicken Salad Sandwich on such a warm summer’s day? Best of all, Acai bowls? You don’t have to ask me twice! Well, that would go for anything food related… but that’s besides the point.

You are probably wondering now why I am so excited about this as it’s not deep-fried anything. Take a look for yourself, I hope you can smell the freshness through the pictures that I was able to capture of Jan’s amazing offerings.
