Berrylicious Smoothie

05/31/12 | Beverage

I think the thermometer may have tipped 100 degrees yesterday in Central Texas, and while a nice frosty adult beverage is always nice to cool off with, not everyone loves to indulge quite so much. I’m not sure who these people are, but I’m quite sure they’re out there. My pregnant friends, for example. So, I wanted to experiment with some non-alcoholic drinks to share for the summer heat.
Most smoothie recipes that I’ve come across involve a banana, but I don’t really like bananas. I know, I know. So, I decided to make one with no banana, and see if I could get the same good texture. I think I did pretty stinkin’ good…it was berrylicious, thick, and creamy. Perfect smoothie texture!

    Thanks for a smoothie without bananas! I became allergic to them after my son was born {weird, I know} and like you said, most smoothies have them! So I can't wait to try this one!

Welcome!

As a busy wife and mom who also works a full time job, I try to have dinner done in 30 minutes or less so I can spend more of my evenings with my hubby and baby girl, so what you will find here are recipes that are mostly-healthy, quick and easy. Of course I have desserts, less healthy and more time-intensive meals as well (everything in moderation!), but all-in-all, you can count on weeknight friendly options, all made with love and dished up with a side of life, love, and family!
