For the past few weeks I have been making healthy smoothies every morning with a flat of organic berries that I picked up from the Farmer's Market - I keep it a little different every morning...here's how I made the smoothie today and I call it the Berry Surprise Smoothie. The surprise being the black grapes and plums which add another layer of flavor and the enriched soymilk which makes it silky and luscious...Enjoy !!!
- 4 oz of Strawberries ( 6-7 big ones)
- 2 Oz of Black Seedless Grapes (about 6)
- 1 Black Plum
- 3 Oz of Wildwood Probiotic Soy Milk
Blend in Magic Bullet. Add Honey or Agave Nectar if you want it sweeter. I enjoyed it without any added sugar. This recipe goes out to Smitha @ Smitha's Spicy Flavors who is hosting the event Healing Foods : Berries, a series which was concepted by Siri.
Have you been taking care of yourself lately?
