As the summer comes closer, my diet gets better. Recently I have been owning yogurt and frozen fruits to replace my winter indulgence of yogurt and muslie. In honor of my mother, who loves frozen blueberries on yogurt, I decided to try it. Instead of just blueberries I mixed in some other frozen fruit. It was fantastic.
Another great snack I had recently was Ben and Jerry's Chocolate Fudge Brownie FroYo with fresh strawberries and frozen fruit. So delicious. Maybe I should talk Brendan in to taking me to get some...Hmmmm.
When I ran out of FroYo, I mixed Ben and Jerry's Cheese Cake Brownie icecream (they had a super sale at Meijer, don't judge me please), with fresh kiwi and frozen blueberries and strawberries.
After finally running out of my stock pile of ice cream (this took over 2 months to do and a boyfriend to help me out), I moved on to the healthier choice, Smoothies. I bought a huge bag of frozen blueberries and strawberries and have been making amazing smoothies ever since. I've been experimenting and making tons of my own recipes for fantastic smoothies. Here is the one pictured
Smoothie Recipe (2-3 servings depending):
1 cup plain low fat yogurt
1/2 cup milk (add more if you want it thinner)
1 cup frozen blueberries
4-6 strawberries (frozen or unfrozen)
2 bananas
1 teaspoon honey
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup granola (optional, but if you make this a meal it's more filling!)
Blueberries to garnish
