,,I’ve put together few recipes for Smoothies that I think can help achieve the goal of staying healthy. Maintaining over all health can help the mind become more creative where we can start as well as successfully finish whatever goals we set for ourselves.
I hope you will try and enjoy some of the drinks I’ve listed below.
1. Smoothies for Health - Great when you’re approaching that deadline.
Energizer -
2 oz ready to eat apricots
10 oz orange juice
5 oz apricot yogurt
Roughly chop the apricots and place in a bowl. Pour over the orange juice, cover, and allow to stand overnight. Place the apricots, juice and yogurt in a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Add a few ice cubes and drink immediately.
2. Ward off the Cold — If you feel one coming on, this will help, especially when trying to meet that deadline.
2 ripe kiwi fruit
9 oz unsweetened pineapple juice
Peel and roughly chop the kiwi fruit and place in the blender. Pour in the pineapple juice and puree until smooth. Pour into a glass, and ice cubes and enjoy.
Extra Vitamin C can reduce the length and severity of the symptoms.
3. Boost that Immune System - Counteracts stress that will lower the immune system defenses.
10 frozen strawberries
5 oz probiotic strawberry yogurt
5 oz orange juice
Place all ingredients in a blender or food processor and puree until smooth.
4. Calm the spirit and the Mind - Who couldn’t use some of this to help with a busy schedule.
10 large strawberries
1 small ripe mango
10 oz orange juice
Wash and hull the strawberries. Peel and roughly chop the mango. Place all the ingredients in a blender or food processor and puree until smooth.
5. Cranberry and Cherry Cooler - Simply helps us to chill out.
7 oz canned pitted cherries, drained
10 oz unsweteened cranberry juice
Crushed ice
Place cherries and cranberry juice in a blender, puree until smooth. Add plenty of crushed ice to a tall glass, and pour over the ice and serve.
Cranberry juice has a natural antibacterial action and can help stave off urinary-tract infections.
6. Love bananas? You’ll love this one - A healthy alternative to comfort foods.
1 ripe banana
9 oz almond milk
1 tablespoon ground almonds
Pinck of ground cardamon
Honey to sweeten
