SO I saw a recipe on Pinterest for Lactation Cookies.
..That's right. Cookies that boost lactation. I feel entitled to eat these (and lots of them) after giving birth. It's fair, right?? I was curious about these lactation cookies and started reading the ingredients and realized the secret ingredient that really isn't so secret, is Brewers Yeast.
I also saw multiple recipes for smoothies using brewers yeast and decided to make my own. I should have been better at measuring out my ingredients for the sake of this post, but I wasn't planning on doing a blog post about it until I realized how good tasted it.

SO, here goes.
My recipe for a "Boobie Smoothie"
1 banana
a handful of oatmeal *great for lactation*
a handful of raspberries
a handful of spinach
a handful of spinach
Almond milk
Honey flavored Greek yogurt
1 heaping teaspoon of Flax Meal
1 heaping teaspoon of Brewers Yeast *great for lactation*
a dash of vanilla extract
crushed ice
Blend well. & Enjoy.
I thought it was really sweet and delicious, plus has some great benefits for me and baby!
*Side note: I got brewers yeast at a specialty health and nutrition store locally. It was on the shelf listed as "nutritional yeast"*
I'm excited about experimenting with more smoothie recipes!
XOXO
