Warm, tummy-friendly smoothies for when you can’t do frozen bananas anymore

December 11, 2020 by Ivy Chan

For many of us on this side of the hemisphere, smoothie season is over. I hear you. Dark mornings are not such a great fit anymore for my favourite green smoothie either. Even if it is warm enough where you are, you might find that freezing cold smoothies are not the best choice for you….

Hello from yet another sunny day in CA. I am kind of tired of the sun, and I hope my child will get to experience the seasonal changes which I was able to enjoy when I was younger. Granted, it never snowed back home, but we had lovely autumns and the spring was amazing and…

I have been trying to quit the habit of late-night snacking. I never had this habit until the baby. I never even stayed up late, since I am an early riser. The problem is, our little one is an early riser, too, which means that late nights are my only time I can be on…

HELLO REAL LIFE!

Welcome! My name is Ivy. I am an academic by training and a foodie at heart, in a small but mighty body. Classical with a twist, married to the love of my life, a proud mum of two little lions, and one little human. We have recently moved to the gorgeous state of Washington. I am back to a 4-year school to study Ayurvedic nutrition and Traditional Chinese Medicine. When I have time from school and our two-year-old, I like to read, write, bake, and consume more Medjool dates and dried figs than anyone I know.

Shakingmytofu aims to make plant-based life convenient, affordable, and adaptable for everyone. I will be happy if I can bring a little more light, health, and peace to the daily life. Feel free to spend time, have a look at the recipes, lists of plant-based sources (from snacks to clothing), images and articles. Contact me anytime with queries, suggestions, and collaboration ideas at shakingmytofu@gmail.com or simply by filling out the form below. Look forward to hearing from you!
