Very Berry Good Smoothie
Note: the apples didn’t actually fit, we had to leave them out.
Our smoothie master, Geoff, is at it again with this berry-based, nutrient-packed smoothie.
You’ll note, in the picture above, that it includes two apples. Well, we ran out of room in the Vitamix and they just wouldn’t fit. But even without the apples, this was one tasty smoothie and it made enough for four servings.
Here’s a list of all the nutrients and, as you can see, this smoothie is only 225 calories per serving.
