Today is DAY 1 of my Healthy Eating Challenge!!
This morning I tested out a couple SMOOTHIE recipes in the kitchen! The two I tested out were an Energy Booster and a Berry Delicious Smoothie. These are two totally different tasting drinks. The first one has spinach which you CANNOT taste at all. The banana flavor really takes over in this one! In the Berry smoothie the sweetness of the Raspberries will keep you going back for more. Yum!
Both of them are a refreshing treat on a hot day!
ENERGY BOOSTER
- 1/2 cup fresh baby spinach (packed)
- 1/2 banana
- 1/4 cup frozen raspberries or blueberries
- 1/2 cup coconut water
- 4 ice cubes
- 1/2 container of plain greek yogurt
Directions: combine all ingredients in a food processor until mixed smoothly.
(The color of the smoothie doesn’t look so appealing in this picture but it tastes great!)
BERRY DELICIOUS
- 1/2 container of plain greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup coconut water or water
- 4 ice cubes
- 1/2 cup frozen raspberries or strawberries
- 1/2 banana
Directions: combine all ingredients in a food processor until mixed smoothly.
You can even make a double batch of these and throw them in the freezer so they are ready to go the next time you want one!
With my first attempt at throwing greens in a smoothie I thought it would taste gross but to my surprise it wasn’t!! I wouldn’t lie to you guys.
Do you have any smoothie recipes?? Please share!
