Apricot Pineapple smoothie
It’s not too late to ask for a Magic Bullet for Christmas! I bought one 2 years ago, and I use it almost on a daily basis, so it’s definitely paid for itself. I was flipping channels the other day and now I see they have an attachment for juicing, and an attachment for a bigger blender! But mostly we make smoothies and milkshakes with it. I love this recipe because it is so healthy and yummy!
- 1/4 cup crushed pineapple
- 1 fresh apricot, diced
- 6 strawberries
- 1/2 banana
- 1 1/2 cup water
- 1 tbsp. skim milk powder
- 1 heaping tbsp. high- quality protein powder (optional)
- 1 tsp. flax seed oil (optional)
By having a smoothie each day, you can load up on tons of healthy things to get your day started in the right direction. I sometimes think when I start the day like this, the rest of my day is healthier and I avoid more pitfalls! For the protein powder, I use Kashi brand protein powder. You can buy it at Trader Joe’s, or Whole Foods.
