Another Great Smoothie!


1/2 lg. banana
1sm.-med. carrot
1c frozen strawberries
1-2T lime zest - optional
1/2 to 3/4c plain Greek yogurt
3/4c pure pomegranate juice
1T local organic honey
1T fresh ground cinnamon


Combine everything in a blender, on medium or high for a minute, and it's ready!  I keep hearing wonderful, healing and anti-viral information about the Honey-Cinnamon combination.  I forgot to put it in initially.  Tasted it, then remembered - it was a very nice addition. . .Lin


SuperFood Smoothie



1 med. banana
1 to 1-1/2 c frozen fruit
3/4-1c plain Greek yogurt
pure pomegranate juice
a little organic honey


Combine all in a blender, pour and drink.  I've found a frozen fruit mix I just love, sold at Walmart.  I'ts their Great Value brand, "Cherry Berry Blend" consisting of cherries, blueberries and strawberries.  A wonderful antioxidant, healthy fiber-filled combination.  I used to buy one that had blackberries instead of cherries, but all those blackberry seeds are obnoxious.  This is so nice.


You might not need it, but I recommend adding the honey.  It's good for a little natural sweetness and the more you read about this wonderful bee-product, the more you'll want to be including it in your diet anywhere you need a little burst of something sweet.  Honey is a very healthy sweetener.  All these ingredients are amazing.  If you have a little time, do a nutritional search on each of them and. . .prepare to be awed. . .Lin
