Very Berry Smoothie

 (LD) 
Hey everyone, this week the smoothie we are making is a very berry smoothie. Berry smoothies are very popular you can buy a variation of a berry smoothie at most places that sell smoothies. Berries include many antioxidants as well as many vitamins and minerals. Depending on the fruit you use to make your smoothies with you they may also contain active enzymes. Here is how I made my smoothie.

I Used:
1 Cup Blueberries
1 Cup Raspberries (Excellent source of fibre, Vitamin B2 and also contain
anti-cancer phytochemicals)
1 cup Strawberries (Half your daily intake of Vitamin C, and contains antioxidents that promote eye health)
1 small greek yogurt (any flavor, your preference) (Protein!)
1 tsp flaxseed (Contains Fiber)
a little bit of water

Ingredients: Blueberries, Strawberries and Raspberries

Tip: To make it easier, I like to measure out my ingredients in a measuring cup before pouring it into the blender. This makes less mess, and if you pour to much by accident its easier to clean up!

Organic Flaxseed

 Next add, 1 teaspoon (1 tsp.) of flaxseed directly into the blender.

Now, Add your yogurt. 1 small yogurt will make it pretty thick so if you require it more watery than add more yogurt or water.

And Voila....

Your own very berry antioxident deliciousness! If you have more aquired taste you could include a mixture of any other berries. Such as blackberries, blueberries, cherries or even pomegranate. You can also substitute the greek yogurt, with regular yogurt or protein powder mix. It will still allow you to get your protein but also your desired consistancy, some people think that the greek yogurt is to thick for them. This all depends on personal preference.
