Hubby and I are usually the last to try new trends or fads whether it’s food or clothes. About 2 months ago I decided to try making smoothies and we both decided that they tasted good and were refreshing.
Instead of cooking breakfast, I make smoothies for us in my old blender, no fancy machine here, but it works fine. We have them at least 2 0r 3 times a week.
Our favorite is the strawberries and bananas. I always use frozen bananas and just change up the fruit.
My recipe is as follows:
1 1/2 frozen banana
about 8 strawberries, fresh or you can freeze your fruit ( or you can decide how much fruit you want in it).
1 cup yogurt ( I like vanilla).
1 cup almond milk plain or vanilla flavored
about 4 ice cubes.
flax seed meal or wheat germ ( I put in about 3 tablespoons).
honey (optional) you can decide the amount
Blend all together.
This makes enough for 2 16 oz. servings.
Pour, serve and enjoy.♥♥♥♥
I am not a dietician, so I’m not sure what the calorie amount is, or the nutrition information, but this definitely works for us.
Thank you for stopping by.♥

Oh my, this looks like a very delicious breakfast! I have only oats, every single morning, every day of the year for many years. Is that terribly boring or what? Your breakfast is something kings and queens would love.

I have just bought a nutribullet and having a go at what is easy and tastes good! Hadn’t thought of freezing the banana ahead of time. Definitely going to try that. May need to have a look out for flax seed, I know it’s a super food but I have not spotted it yet locally for sale! The smoothie in the glasses looks delicious.

I have been using my blender, but now am thinking of getting a nutribullett also, thinking it will do a better job.
