Anyone Want A Smoothie????

Yep ~ some more recipes from our February Challenge.  These are a delicious collection of smoothies!!

1.  Quick Breakfast Smoothie

In a blender, mix the following:

8 oz. Unsweetened Almond Milk
1 Banana
2 Tbsps. Malted Flavored Ovaltine


It's quick, easy and SO good. This is my go-to breakfast almost every day of the week. Even better...it is only 180 calories!!

You can switch this recipe up with just about any fruit you want. I Use the Ovaltine to make it a bit thicker. Yogurt can also be used. Need more protein in your diet? Add some peanut butter!

6. Sammie Smoothie

 A quick and healthy breakfast when I haven't got a lot of time.

-Natural fat free but flavored yogurt,
- Handful of x2-3 berry types (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, blackberries, boysenberries),
- a banana
- a tablespoon of honey to smooth out the tartness of some berries,
- Blend 
     (Add a splash of milk so it's not quite so thick & easier to drink)

Can also make with fat free frozen yogurt instead, when you want a more refreshing drink on a hot day, or swap for OJ or natural apple juice as the base, instead of yogurt, as a more juicy type flavor, then change the fruits to more melon based, like watermelon.
