ORGANIC SMOOTHIE
You can throw just about anything in a fruit smoothie to enhance its flavor such as honey, tofu, jams, any combination of fruits, peanut butter, juices, etc., but keep in mind it will effect the nutritional values.
2 cups organic calcium-fortified orange juice 1 cup frozen organic strawberries 1/3 cups frozen organic blueberries (more or less to taste) 1 banana
Blend in your blender till smooth, then add the following optional ingredients, if desired: slightly less than 1/4 cups flax oil 2. 5 scoops of your favorite powdered protein supplement this recipe makes a lot of smoothie, enough to feed myself & my 2 sons for breakfast.
It also freezes really well (for smoothie Popsicles).
If you only need to feed yourself, then you can cut the ingredients in half.
Blueberries, along with other colorful fruits and vegetables, test high in their ability to subdue free radicals. These free radicals, which can damage cell membranes and DNA through a process known as oxidative stress, are blamed for many of the dysfunctions and diseases associated with aging.
