I have been enjoying smoothies lately—use food processor.
About 3-4 strawberries plus enough Splenda to sweeten, about 1/2 cup fresh pineapple, 1/4 banana, few frozen grapes. Process.
Add about 1/2 orange juice with small amount water (this cuts the sharpness of OJ. Process and drink

I love fresh tomatoes and basil with pasta – loaded with vitamins! And this is a great time to take advantage of all the beautiful tomatoes out there. Toss this with whole wheat pasta to make it even healthier!
Fresh Tomato Sauce with Linguine
For tomato sauce:
2 cups seeded, and coarsely chopped tomato
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 cup firmly packed fresh basil leaves, minced
1 cup firmly packed fresh parsley leaves, minced
3 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan
3 garlic cloves, or to taste, minced
2 teaspoons salt
1 pound linguine
Fresh parsley to garnish
Make tomato sauce:
In a bowl combine well all the sauce ingredients and let the sauce stand at room temperature, covered, for at least 1 hour.
In large pot, bring 5 quarts of salted water to a boil. Add linguine and stir to prevent sticking. Return water to boil and cook until pasta is firm but cooked, approximately 7 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain pasta well. Serve with tomato sauce, and garnish with fresh parsley.
