It's not cooking, per se, but my friend Jacquie and I were discussing our juice/smoothie recipes today, so I thought I would put them on here too...
My current smoothie recipe (I assume there will be more once I start incorporating her tips):
1 banana
1-2 cups frozen berries (blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, strawberries or any combo thereof)
1/2 small block of tofu
1 tsp or so ground ginger (or use fresh ginger to your discretion)
1 cup milk (soy milk or almost milk for the non-dairy types)
(optional add in, great for flavor: 1 packet Emergen-C or electrolyte packet)
Blend and serve. Makes about 2-4 servings depending how much you want.
Super high in protein, antioxidants, potassium, etc. Ginger is awesome for many things, not the least of which is your digestion. Emergen-C is what I add for an immunity boost.
Look for updates as I figure out how to grow my own wheatgrass...
My post running smoothie is usually:
ReplyDelete1 banana
1/2 - 1 cup kefir
1/2 - 1 cup OJ
frozen pineapple chunks
squirt of honey
The kefir is pourable, which makes it more convenient than yogurt, and adds some thickness to the smoothie. I'll add in some other fruit if I have it, usually blueberries or strawberries. Nutrutious and delicious, just like me.
1/2 banana, 1 cup frozen blueberries, 1/4 cup dry rolled oats, 1 cup light soymilk, dash of vanilla extract. Blend and Yum! :)
