Morning Adventures

 

Sometimes the weekend is just too short to fit it all in. This weekend was one of them. Bruce and I had tickets to a local beer festival, we had a surprise birthday party BBQ, a game night was spontaneously hosted at our house, progress was made on the basement remodel, and meg and I snuck away for a little fresh mountain air. The initial plan was to head up Saturday night but then the game night keep us laughing and in fierce competition until well after midnight – by that time our own beds were the more appealing destination.

The next morning we packed up and headed out – the mountains were still calling. We don’t all have the time to get away for weeks or whole weekends but even a little fresh air and new adventure is good for the soul. We broke in our equipment, napped in our tent, watched hawks fly, and flowers grow. We went on a hike and may have lost the trail one or two times. We took photos, watched a thunderstorm (and slightly freaked out), and enjoyed the opportunity to fit a little camping into our busy weekend.
We grabbed Naked Juice out of my fridge and enjoyed breakfast in the mountains. I love bringing Naked Juice on adventures as go-to breakfasts and snacks! They are not only delicious, practical, and compact but they are also totally nutritious! I love how they are packed with fruits, veggies, and protein (all the things you need) without extra sugars or preservatives!

Last time I was at the store I picked up some of their new flavors – Berry Almond Nutmilk, Kale Blazer, and Proteins & Greens. They ended up being the perfect fuel for our adventures! I try to always keep a stock in the fridge because you ever know when you need a quick and healthy breakfast. Some mornings are crazy but breakfast is too important to skip!

Have  you tried any of the new Naked flavors? Are you a Naked fan? What is your go to snack on adventures or for breakfasts on the go?

    They are a bit, but they are so convenient and usually about the same (if not cheaper) than buying all the veggies and fruits and mixing them together for your breakfast. Especially when you add in the time factor! I love having some on hand when I don't have the time to make a "normal" meal!
