Smooth Breaskfast

Great for a snack, meal or even as dessert, smoothies are amazing. You can get a day's worth of fruit and veggies in a glass. I like them for breakfast. A quick, cold and creamy treat while I run out the door for class. You pretty much cannot make a bad smoothie as long as you use fresh ingredients that mesh well together. You can even add in greens like spinach or kale. The sweet fruits mask their favor so you hardly taste them. Here is one of my favorites:

Strawberry Pineapple Smoothie
1 cup vanilla soy milk
1 cup frozen straw berries
1/2 crushed pineapple
1 small banana
1/2 tbs flax seed
Handful of ice


Put everything in a blender and blend until smooth. The flax seeds get ground up so don't worry They add extra fiber and omega-3 fatty acid (something that is vital for our bodies but most Americans lack in their diet).
