Pomegranate & Berry Smoothie
Monday, May 18, 2020
We are a smoothie loving family. So much that even our 17 month old daughter loves drinking them. Not only is it a great Grab & Go Breakfast but also makes for a great after school drink or a post workout drink
Smoothies are so easy to make & there is no dearth for all the various combinations we could use to create our own unique blend

SOME OF THE CONSTANTS IN MY SMOOTHIES ARE
BANANA
I like using Banana in all my smoothies as it provides a great silky texture to smoothies without needing to add any sweetener. Plus, they also makes smoothies more filling
ALMOND MILK
You can use any milk of your choice, I usually buy Almond Milk in bulk so I tend to use it more than other kind of milks. You could use Oat Milk, Rice Milk too. I do not prefer adding regular dairy milk in my smoothies as it makes the smoothie very heavy on the stomach
NUT BUTTER
Nut Butters not only add taste & a wonderful texture to smoothies, it is nutritional as well. You could use any Nut Butter of your choice. I alternate between Peanut Butter & Almond Butter. You can also use the Mix Nut Butter
Apart from these 3 staples, I keep adding different fruits & ingredients depending on what's availabile at home
