Oh-So-Berrylicious Smoothie
This morning I had a craving for a smoothie.
I usually just go to Jamba Juice for a $4 smoothie like a normal person, but I wasn’t ready to get out of my pajamas just yet, so I thought why not make my own.
Except that I’ve never made a smoothie. Like ever.
So I searched on Youtube for a little bit. And then on Google. And after awhile I realized that I was missing most of the ingredients these recipes required.
White chocolate peanut butter. Pomegranate. Flax seed. Kale. (Who drinks this stuff?)
The only smoothie-like ingredient I knew I had were frozen mixed berries.
That is until I found one of those little boxes of vanilla almond milk that I’d purchased when I was feeling a little adventurous only to promptly hide it in the back of the fridge to die a slow death.
And then I spotted a lone banana on the counter and I knew it was meant to be.
So I threw the mixed berries, banana and half of the almond milk into the blender and crossed my fingers.
And it was the best smoothie ever.
It was so good that I barely had time to instagram it, before diving in.
So the moral of the story is: You can totally make a smoothie with 3 ingredients while you’re still in your pajamas and save yourself $4.
You’re welcome.
Oh-So-Berrylicious Smoothie Recipe
- 1 cup frozen mixed berries
- 1 banana
- 1/2 cup vanilla almond milk
Blend ingredients for about a minute, pour into glass and sip away.
I love making smoothies, instead of the milk I use to throw in about 3 heaping tablespoon full of Greek yogurt, and then some cranberry juice. But a couple weeks ago I got a Vitamix, and have been going crazy with all the veggie and fruit blends, that are so delicious! And…making them at home saves on expenses too.
this looks easy to do and so delicious.
