About the Author

Carissa Bonham, once dubbed “The Green Martha Stewart,” believes that healthy food should be both beautiful and delicious. She launched her popular website, Creative Green Living, in 2013 to help parents make healthy choices that actually worked for real-life families. A Northwest girl at heart, Carissa lives with a house full of boys—with only her dog and a few chickens as her female companions. When she isn’t chasing children, chickens or dogs, you might find her tending her garden, creating a new craft tutorial, or taking pictures of her latest smoothie bowl for Instagram. She resides near Portland, Oregon.

“What a refreshing look at smoothies! Healthy smoothies are essentially nutrient-dense foods through a straw, and yet one of the joys of eating is seeing the ingredients of our food and chewing them. Bravo to Carissa Bonham for giving us both in her rainbow-colored goodness-packed recipes. These beautiful bowls are part-smoothie goodness, part sprinkles of fruit, nuts, seeds, and other wholesome delights. You cannot help but fall in love with them. A beautifully done book which leaves you feeling satiated and guilt-free!” —Farnoosh Brock, author of The Healthy Smoothie Bible and The Healthy Juicer’s Bible
