So sorry you are having anxiety this week. I can relate! Nourishing your body definitely helps. 

Love purple. I hope you feel better soon.  

I do, too, Morticia. I don't eat smoothies often, and I like them to look pretty if I have one 😊 Wasn't sure how the spinach and blueberries were going to look together, but it worked. Thank you for the well wishes. Doing my best to take care of myself until this passes, and I know it will  

Thanks, StormsGirl 😊 Nourishing is indeed key. The good thing is that I've been eating well and building a good food environment long enough that I a) don't crave too much junk, and b) don't really have it in the house to begin with 😂 It's not like I have the option of tearing into three bowls of Captain Crunch in a fit of self-pity when all I have in the house are old-fashioned rolled oats 😜 

That smoothie sounds impressive. Hope you find peace today. 

so sorry for the anxiety I suffer with it to hope ya find some peace today. 

Sending a hug.  

Interesting. I've never had squash in a smoothie. I'm assuming it's cooked? 

love sweet potatoes in my smoothie. the carmelization from cooking makes an awesome flavor profile  

Your smoothie sounds delicious! Hope you feel much better soon. xxx 

I hope that smoothie helps with your anxiety,cause it sure looks good 😊 

Never heard of or tried putting tofu in a smoothie - gonna try this for a hearty vegan breakfast smoothie, thanks for the idea! 

haven't tried the butternut squash in a smoothie 🤔 

Tofu in a smoothie?! Brilliant! 

Never had tofu in a smoothie 

Both tofu and cottage cheese, and of course plain yougurt work great in a smoothie 

I love soy milk, so this would taste really good to me. 

Sorry I haven't been responding. It has seriously been a week. Thank you for all the well wishes. I'm in a better mental state now. Had a lovely reunion with friends I hadn't seen in 30 years, and we plan to stay in touch now. Got a massive amount of work done at the office this week and feel good about that. Yes, the squash was cooked, and it was really good. I try to put veggies in my smoothies sometimes. Others I've used are cucumber (peeled, seeds removed), beets, pumpkin (pumpkin spice smoothies!), cooked carrots, and of course, kale and spinach. Avocado is also nice, although I guess technically, it's a fruit. Avocado + banana + cocoa powder makes a wicked chocolate shake 😋 Since I don't use protein powders and tofu is a staple in our house, tofu is a natural choice for bumping up the protein. Haven't tried cottage cheese. I would think you'd need to get the no salt variety for smoothies, and our grocery no longer carries it
