Banana Blueberry Smoothie

banana_blueberry_smoothie
Makes 1 serving
What better way to start the day than with a bright blue pick-me-up? This one is full of flavor and gets an extra shot of heart-healthy omega 3s from it’s secret ingredient: hemp seeds. You can substitute flax seed if you can’t find hemp, but the hemp is easier to grind.
  • 8 ounces nonfat soy milk or rice milk
  • 1 frozen banana (cut into chunks before you freeze!)
  • 1 cup frozen blueberries
  • 1/2 cup (that’s 4 ounces) nonfat vanilla yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon hemp seeds
Put the hemp seeds in a food processor or blender and grind. Add the rest of the ingredients and puree. Serve immediately.
