Smoothies

Smoothies. We received a NutriBullet last Christmas, and have found it fits in beautifully with our attempt to eat more real food. We usually begin with a layer of baby spinach, although we have used kale as well.  Then we add some frozen mixed fruit.  This is important because it gives the drink the coolness it requires without adding ice. We top it off with whatever fresh fruit we have on hand. Be aware though, that if you add banana it will basically over take the flavor combination. Not that we don't like banana, it's just that we don't want every drink to taste the same. We top it off with a little local honey for sweetness and some cold water.  The beauty of the NutriBullet is the easy cleanup, the relatively low calorie count, and the nutrition provided. It might be worth checking out if you are trying to incorporate more healthy choices in your day.
