{February 22, 2011}   Smoothies~ So tasty and good for you!!!

My inspiration for making all natural body products was seeded from my experience on an organic CSA farm over 12 years ago. At our peak, our farm of less than 5 acres produced two grocery bags full of fresh organic vegetables and fruits for a 16 week season to over 100 families!!! Eating fresh fruits and vegetables was the norm for me.

Even now, eating fresh organic fruits and vegetables are part of my core values. One way I celebrate this is with a morning smoothie. There are many variations on smoothies. One important fruit I always incorporate is the blueberry for its antioxidant property as well as taste. Experiment with fruits, vegetables, peanut butter, hemp seed, and more!  Always remove all seeds from fruit before adding to blender.

My morning smoothie recipe:

One organic banana
4 oz. organic blueberries
4 oz. plain organic yogurt
1 tablespoon flaxseeds (great source of fiber)
6 oz. Orange Juice

Mix well in blender. If too thick, add more oj!

Enjoy and celebrate the day!!!!

There are many great smoothie recipe sites.  Just google “smoothie recipes”.
