I am starting to work out in the morning and rather eating something at 5am I'd rather drink. So, I experimented with a smoothie recipe and hope you enjoy it.
Ingredients:
1 cup Frozen Mixed Berries (Strawberries, Raspberries, Blueberries, Blackberries)
2 Banana
1/2 cup Plain Low fat Yogurt
1/2 cup Apple or orange juice
1 tbsp honey for added sweetness
Directions:
Put all into blender mix until smooth. Pour into glass and serve.
Tips for Smoothie Success
- Some smoothie recipes call for ice cubes; try frozen fruit instead.
- Peel and cut up bananas into 1-inch pieces prior to freezing.
- To freeze fresh berries, spread a single layer on a jellyroll pan, freeze the fruit, and store in resealable freezer bags.
- Add yogurt, milk, flax seeds, silken tofu, wheat germ, or protein powder to the blender for an extra hit of nutrition.
- If a smoothie recipe calls for sugar, try it first without the added sweetener. You really might not need it, depending upon the natural sweetness of the fruit.
- Take a second to rinse out the blender right after you use it, even if you're planning to wash it later; dried-on fruit makes for slow clean-up.
