if there's one thing i can do with confidence every time, it's make a smoothie! making a smoothie is so simple, it gets my creative juices flowing...and aesthetically speaking? raw beauty! thanks juice it up! for the few months of training. the following is one of my favorite smoothies to create!
the blueberry green tea
(loosely based on the following measurements and ingredients!)
2 cups blueberries
1 handful of frozen mangoes (trader joe's are always amazing)
1 banana (preferably frozen)
1/2 cup of ice
1 cup of almond milk
1 cup of freshly brewed green tea, cooled
a splash of apple juice
1 T of flax seed, ground
agave nectar, if needed
blend.
add extra frozen or liquid ingredients to reach desired consistency.
blend.
and enjoy!
Oh yum! I have all the ingredients in my freezer! I know what I'm having for breakfast tomorrow.
