Smoothies are so refreshing and actually filling! Here is an idea for a quick "power meal in a smoothie"! I always buy organic fruits, vegetables, and produce, and it makes me feel that I'm not getting a bunch of unnecessary chemicals from pesticides. Another great thing, is that (besides the yogurt), every ingredient in this recipe are Negative Calorie Foods! Meaning they take more calories to burn than they contain. So cool. Well, enjoy your smoothies!
INGREDIENTS for about 2 smoothies:
1 Cup Ice - (blend this in the blender before adding fruits and spinach)
1/3 pint blueberries
1/3 C. raspberries
2 bananas - cut into pieces
A small hand full of spinach, chopped or ripped into small pieces
1/4 - 1/2 Cup Pineapple Juice (or any juice you have on hand)
1/2 C. - 1 C. Vanilla or Strawberry Yogurt
INSTRUCTIONS:
Crush ice in blender. Add fruits and spinach, and blend for about 30 seconds, or until completely combined. If you want a thinner smoothie, just add more juice.
This smoothie was very tasty. You get a nice taste of each of the ingredients, without tasting the spinach too much :) I am sure you could use frozen fruit as well.
I hope you enjoy these, they kept me more full than expected!
