Tropical Cloud Smoothie

With the mornings getting a little more hectic with the holiday schedule behind us, why not start your day off with a quick and tasty smoothie.  I actually had this for dinner last night but it really is a great breakfast treat.  I kicked this smoothie up a little bit with a scoop of protein and a table spoon of flax seed.  It gave it more dimension and added some flavor as well.

The combination of oranges, pineapple and blackberries is really refreshing.  Whenever you have a craving for a smoothie or in a rush to get somewhere… whip this 3 minute recipe up in your blender.

Zesty Tip: Smoothie Not Thick Enough? If your smoothies are coming out thinner than you’d like, add a few more ice cubes to the recipe.  Add the liquids to the blender first, to prevent it from binding up on the fruit and getting stuck.

Question of the day: 

What is your favorite ingredient to put in a smoothie?

I hope you have yourself a great day.

Take care
