a year ago, a friend shared his mother's recipe that was her cure-all for when her children got sick. I added a few items to it & thought I'd try it out as a preventive measure | result a year later? I feel great! considering my work hours, exercise, travel, etc - that says a lot | I use my Vitamix juicer but a blender is fine | amounts listed below are for 1 person - simply increase equally as necessary for a full glass | use organic where possible.
Ingredients
- 1 banana, broken into several pieces
- 1 orange, peeled - the less rind, the sweeter the smoothie
- approx. 2 cups pineapple chunks
- approx. 7 strawberries (during winter months, I buy frozen)
- 1/3 C raspberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1/4 C blueberries (fresh or frozen)
- either 3 spoonfuls of vanilla yogurt or a 6-count of vanilla almond milk or other non-dairy option
Directions
Easy! Just add all contents and blend until consistency is smooth. On weekdays I accompany this with a cup of tea and a small bowl of whole grain cereal. It's delicious, vegan, and gets me in gear for the day. It's also a great addition to homemade brunch with loved ones.Enjoy - I absolutely adore this smoothie. :D
