Hello from Minneapolis. 🙂

Want to see some tasty things we made this week? Well, you’re in luck!

This is the no-video, no podcast, no article, no Mother’s Day Vitamix sale, no-nothing newsletter. Just some pretty pictures we took this week that hopefully inspire you to make something similar.

Thank you from the Life is NOYOKE family Lenny, Shalva and Lucy.

1. My favorite salad

Greens + onions + tomatoes + cucumbers + olives + artichokes + avocado + quinoa + chickpeas (raw or in this case, falafeled!) with tahini dressing on top.

2. Must-go Falafel Salad

Aunt Sal sent us home from family-reunion dinner with all the leftover Mediterranean food! Here’s everything that had to go (over greens).

3. Carolyne’s

It feels like we mention this green smoothie, Carolyne’s, every single week. Maybe you should, too?

4. Spoon-fed family

We realized this week we eat all of our meals out of bowls. Here’s an Acai bowl with a side of baby food (cubes that will soon be puree again).

5. Berry Bliss

This was a PB&J smoothie with greens. You’ll have to try it yourself to see what it looks like blended.
