Spa Cuisine: Berry Banana Smoothie Recipe
1 comment

By Cait Johnson, Assistant Producer, Care2 Healthy Living Channels.

This is the perfect smoothie recipe, rich in immune-enhancing, beauty-promoting vitamins, calcium, potassium, and omega-3. And it even tastes yummy!

Whip up a batch in the blender for a quick taste treat that’s healthy, too. Perfect for breakfast, as an after-workout snack, or for an energy boost anytime.

INGREDIENTS

1 ripe banana
¾ cup milk or soy milk
1/2 cup ripe strawberries, hulled and halved
¼ cup yogurt (if you use vanilla-flavored yogurt, omit the vanilla extract)
1 teaspoon honey
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon chopped walnuts or flax seeds

1. Whiz all ingredients except walnuts and flax seeds in a blender.

2. Pour into glass and top with walnuts or flax seeds.

Serves 1.
