Last week, we had an awesome program for smoothie making! We're so happy that so many of you were able to make it out. We know that we inspired many of you to make your own smoothies in the future, so we wanted to share a few of our favorites:
Strawberry Banana
1 banana
1/2 cup frozen strawberries
1 cup milk (low fat or skim)
2 tablespoons vanilla yogurt (low fat or fat free)
Very Berry
1/2 cup frozen strawberries
1/2 cup frozen blueberries
1/2 cup frozen blackberries
1 cup milk (low fat or skim)
2 tablespoons strawberry yogurt (low fat or fat free)
Truly Tropical
1/2 cup frozen pineapple
1/2 cup frozen mango
1 banana
1 cup milk (low fat or skim)
2 tablespoons vanilla yogurt (low fat or fat free)
Georgia's Favorite
1 cup frozen peaches
1 cup milk (low fat or fat free)
2 tablespoons vanilla yogurt (low fat or fat free)
Tips!
- By using frozen fruit, you don't need to add ice! If you'd like it colder, or want to use fresh fruit, be sure to add some ice to the mixture
- For extra protein, check out greek yogurt
- The yogurt is an optional ingredient, you don't have to add it!
- For a protein boost, and some omega-3 fatty acids (read: healthy stuff), add some flax seeds
- For a fiber boost (read: healthy!), add some chia seeds
- Make ahead breakfast idea: Add one of the above smoothies, chia seeds, and some uncooked oatmeal. Put it in the fridge overnight. It sounds crazy, but it works! It turns into the texture of a mousse/ soft ice cream.
