be a smoothie monster!
plain and simple.
do it. i promise, you'll love it.
the first smoothie i had was kale, mixed berries, flax seed and some ridiculous array of protein powder. i looked into this glass that was bubbling thick bubbles at me, as if it were some cartoon animated tar pit, and i, was revolted. so, after giving it the good 'ol tequila treatment ---- believe it or not... it didn't totally suck!
for starters, i loathed smoothies. they were all thick, heavy, and gross. alas, i have discovered the secret to outstanding smoothies!
wait for it ---- make them with tea! i prefer apple cinnamon celestial seasonings. that's my favorite. i start off with steeping a couple cinnamon apple celestial seasonings in barely-warm water for a good ten minutes. then, bring on the fruit!
peaches + mixed berries
mango + blueberry
peaches + strawberries
mango + kale + blueberries
kale + blueberries + banana
raspberry + unsweetened chocolate almond milk (delicious for dessert!)
banana + strawberry + unsweetened chocolate almond milk + pb2 (this one too!)
our possibilities are endless!
the biggest bonus to this whole half-frozen early-morning extravaganza, is how long these smoothies keep me full.
so bust out your cuisinart, ninja master prep, or mortar and pestle.
it's smoothie time, bitches!
and don't forget the rangers cup.
its the only way that these smoothies will work.
