Do you ever wonder what to do with fruit that's about to go bad? Maybe your eyes were bigger than your stomach and you bought too much at the market. Well don't worry, I've got a favorite and healthy solution to your problems. I've been making these smoothies for years and quite frankly it sometimes saves me from having to throw away ripe fruit that's about to go over the edge. The good news is you can modify this basic recipe to fit your tastes and needs.
~The Foodie's Smoothie~
1 6-8 oz. carton of mixed berry or strawberry yogurt
1/2 c Blackberry juice
1 handful (approx. 6 strawberries stems removed)
1/2 banana or 1 small banana
1 TBSP Spirulina vanilla flavored protein powder (optional)
Ice Cubes (optional)
Take all your ingredients and put them into a blender. Break the banana up into 3 or 4 smaller sized pieces and blend! That's it! Super easy, super yummy! I don't like ice in mine, but I do sometimes put protein powder in it. This is great in the morning for a quick breakfast on the go or it also makes a great snack in the afternoon.
Looking for some other variations? I'll post another recipe later in the week. In the meantime, enjoy!
