I was thinking about what smoothie I was going to have today.
I chose:
8 oz Unsweetened Almond Milk
1 banana
6 strawberries
6 leaves of basil
handful of spinach (enough to make it green but not too green)
Optional: Chia seeds soaked for about 5 minutes in water.
It was delish. Not sure of the calories, but estimate about 150.
I don't have one of those new powerful blender. The blender I use was bought in 1981 when I moved to Lake Placid. It still works great. The base is a bit scratched but it BLENDS and that is what it is supposed to do. Right?
I looked for a long time in the grocery store for the Chia seeds and could not find them. Finally found them in Nori's in Saranac Lake. Should have looked there first. Not I know for next time.

What have you been putting in your blender this week.
My Smoothie today consisted of
1/2 C Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
1 Med Banana
1 cup fresh strawberries and blueberries mixed
Blend until smooth - added 1 handful of fresh spinach and blended again.
ummmm good. Made 24 ounces. I had 8 for breakfast and the rest in my cup for meals at the store.

Daily Smoothie 5.14.2014
Whats in your blender today?
Today's smoothie was "Chocolate Strawberry Banana"
I used 3/4 Cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
1 Banana
1 cup Strawberries
Blended for about 20 seconds, added 1 handful fresh spinach and a tablespoon of Cocoa and blended for about 30 seconds until all was the same texture. If too think you may add a bit of water or more almond milk to make it smooth. You can add more or less chocolate if you want or skip all together.
Calories based on what I added: 235
This makes about 8 oz. I will try to get a picture next time.
