Blueberry-Banana Smoothie


I am a big fan of smoothies!  They make a delicious breakfast on the go or a nourishing afternoon snack.  This deep purple smoothie is made from only three simple ingredients:  bananas, blueberries, and non-dairy milk!  How simple is that?!?  

Do you ever have overripe bananas laying around begging to end their misery?  Here's a quick tip: freeze them!  That's right; peel them,  cut into chunks, and then place them into a bag/container in the freezer.  Freezing the banana will stop the ripening process and will make an excellent addition to a smoothie.  Using a frozen banana will give you a colder, more dense smoothie. 


Ingredients:
©    1 medium or large Banana (or two small ones)
©    1 cup frozen Blueberries
©    1 cup non-dairy Milk (Rice milk or Soy milk work the best)



Directions:
1.  Place the banana pieces(fresh or frozen), frozen blueberries, and the milk into the blender.  Blend until completely smooth, add more milk if needed.





Give this recipe a try and you too will become a fan of smoothies!  I hope this simple recipe will make your day a little brighter!!!
