Over the past few weeks, as the weather has been getting warmer, I have been drinking more smoothies again. I love smoothies because not only are they healthy and refreshing, but they also are easy to make and eat on the go! During the colder months, I do not drink smoothies as often, usually just after a work out class or if there is a good smoothie place around. As a result, I tend to eat oatmeal more because it is warm and filling, but in the spring and summer I am all about the smoothies. My favorite smoothie is one that is inspired from the Barry's Bootcamp Smoothie Bar, which if you have not tried Barry's or their smoothies I highly recommend. For my smoothie, I add one packet of acai-berry mix, which you can get at your local grocery store, frozen strawberries and blueberries, vanilla protein powder, and a non-frozen banana. For the liquid, I use water or coconut water, as I think that they maintain the flavor of the ingredients while also providing a liquid base.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup of water
1 acai-berry frozen packet
1/2 cup frozen blueberries
1/2 cup frozen strawberries
1 tbs vanilla protein powder
1 unfrozen banana
Enjoy!
Xoxo,
