I'm tired of going green!

I've been drinking green smoothies since the Fall. To be quite honest, I believe whole-heartedly that drinking a green smoothie for breakfast has helped me in my weight management. Plus, it has helped me get a full serving of fruit (and spinach) first thing in the morning.

But, I needed a change. And after experimenting with several combinations, I think I've found my new Summer smoothie recipe.

I use a combination of frozen berries and fresh fruit because I like to use frozen berries instead of ice.

Erica's Summer Berry Smoothie

1/2 Cup Frozen Berries (this mix has cherries, blueberries and currants)
1/2 Cup Mixed fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries and blackberries)
1-1.5 cups of Almond Milk (the unsweetened variety has 40 calories per cup)
1 packet of stevia (Truvia brand shown)
(Optional: for extra nutrients, try adding vanilla protien powder)

Blend and enjoy!
