Mixed Berry Smoothie

Lately I have been on a huge smoothie kick; craving all kinds, from green to berry-filled. I just cannot get enough of them!

I have so many different versions I have concocted and I am head-over-heels in love with this mixed berry smoothie. It’s incredible easy to whip up in the morning or whenever I would like to sit down and enjoy a tasty smoothie.

As long as you have a blender, frozen mixed berries, a banana, and a little bit of milk – you are good to go. For my taste it is already naturally sweet enough from the berries and banana, but if you have a sweet tooth and I mean a real sweet tooth, you can sweeten it more by adding a drizzle or two of honey. Mmm…honey!

With the deep red, almost pink-red color, it would be a fantastic smoothie to serve to your loved one on Valentine’s Day. Would be great for a quick snack or even for breakfast as they head out in the morning.

I always get my frozen berries from Trader Joe’s and they are phenomenal. They are the freshest frozen berries and you cannot beat the price. I always make sure we have enough for my late-night snacking or for the best fruit smoothies.

Want to add some healthy greens to your smoothie? It’s easy, I like adding fresh spinach or even kale. With kale you will have to remember to not include the stems and only the leaves. Just take a handful of your favorite greens and toss them into the blender. So…easy…so…delicious…and..yummy! I cannot wait for the summer to come and enjoy the watermelon berry kale smoothie!
