Mixed fruit/berry smoothie and homemade breakfast burritos!

So I've gotten my motivation back (it was broken) and have gotten a lot of walks and gym time in this week!

I also have a few food recipes to share, as I am trying to make everything I can from scratch!

First off, I made some fruit smoothies. Fruit is starting to go back on sale, so I am buying what I can and freezing it for smoothies.

Pineapple and strawberries have been on sale. So, I stocked up and froze half (ate the other half fresh, yum!) 

All I use for smoothies (and sometimes yogurt) my hope is to never need to buy the mixed frozen fruit bags again, but freeze my own! I would make my own juice too, but I don't have a juicer yet, so Welch's it is!

Handful of frozen fruits and berries, juice, and no ice needed!

Because of the berries, all my smoothies turn out red!
I have mentioned before my love of breakfast burritos. BUT, being store bought, they probably have lots of unnecessary preservatives and things I don't really need to eat.

So, I found a recipe on pinterest to make my own.

Breakfast Burrito

I loosely followed the recipe above, and just used bacon, eggs and cheese in mine. However, they were lacking something, so the next time I made them I added rice and beans to the mix!

scrambled up some eggs!

Here they are all frozen and wrapped up. The recipe said to wrap them individually, but I saw that as a waste of plastic so I ignored it. It worked out fine for me without it.
The nice thing about these is that they have a lot of potential. I can make them spicy with a few jalapeƱo peppers or sausage, adding rice and beans gives some substance and protein, etc.

That's all for now!
