Ingredients: (serves one)
- 1 cup of water
- 1/2 cup of frozen blueberries (or any fruit of equal quantity)
- 1 Tablespoon ground flaxseed
- 1/3 cup of organic yogurt
- 2-3 cups greens, such as spinach or romain
- 1-2 Tablespoons pure maple syrup (or any sweetener such as stevia, honey, or just leave this out)
Prep: Put all ingredients in the blender and blend until smooth. Enjoy!
Note: I actually didn't measure anything when I made this. You can pretty much tweek it to use what you have on hand, and use the above as guidlines.
Health benefits: Blueberries are an excellent source of antioxidants and fiber, the flaxseed adds Omega-3 fats and fiber, the yogurt adds protein and probiotics (good bacteria), and the greens are for enzymes, antioxidants, and minerals. I used maple syrup because 1)I had it on hand, and 2)it is a good source of mineral. It is also sweet, and I have a sweet tooth!
