Spring is the air…the fresh breeze,the sunshine,the smell of flowers,the sweet smell of mangoes(…..i had to share this wonderful mango arugula recipe…yummm…).as you enjoy the amazing flavor of the fruits and vegetables that spring offers,remember also to move this form we call our body..movement is a medium for creating a change in our physical,emotional and mental state
So walk and smell the roses,go to a dance class ,lift some weights,practice yoga on and off the mat.
1 mango
2 cups arugula
10-15 kalamata olives
my very special dressing
balsamic vinegar with crushed raspberries,you can also use red wine vinegar(3-4 tablespoons)
olive oil(1/2-1 tablespoon)
lemon(1/2)
maple syrup or honey(1 -2 tsp)
salt n pepper to taste

cut mango into bite size pieces and lay on bottom of plate,layer with arugula and kalmata olives and drizzle with dressing(as little or as much as you want)

Off to New Mexico…there is something about the place that has placed itself in my heart…a tug that pulls me towards it…
love and enjoy each breath
