Brittany's weight loss smoothie

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup or less prune juice
• 1 1/2 T Peanut Butter Powder (this is also really yummy if you use a vanilla slim fast)
• 1 whole banana, or 1/2 cup of fruit of your choice
• 1 cup or 8-9 cubes ice
• 1 cup water

Blend all ingredients together and enjoy. This recipes a 24 - 26 oz drink.

Blueberry Summer Smoothie

I think I made this smoothie almost every morning for breakfast last summer. I gave the recipe to mom and dad, and they actually drank it a lot, too. Dad liked it best extra cold, made with ice. With the warm weather back, I've been craving it again. This fills me up for breakfast and is a great way to start your day!

1 banana

1 c. frozen blueberries

1/3 c. fresh spinach leaves (I just throw in a handful)

1/4 c. plain low fat yogurt (Just a big spoonful)

1/2 scoop protein powder

1 T. ground flax seed

1/2 c. pomegranate juice

water, if desired, to make less thick. I personally don't add any water.

Mix all the ingredients well in a blender or food processor. Pour into glasses and enjoy! (This makes 2 glassfuls.)

Total calories: 184! Woot!

Blueberry Pineapple Smoothie

We bought pineapple juice today (in order to make Melissa's fruit pizza recipe) and found this recipe on the can. We had all the other ingredients on hand, so we tried it out tonight - yummy! Here is another 'keeper' smoothie recipe.

1 ripe medium banana

3/4 c. pineapple juice

6 oz. blueberry yogurt

1 c. frozen blueberries

Throw everything into your food processor or blender and blend until smooth. Enjoy!

*In our other smoothie recipe, we add a handful of fresh spinach leaves, 1 T. flax seed, and a scoop of protein powder. We didn't put these things in this smoothie tonight, but after trying it once, we know we could add them also without affecting the look or flavor very much. In the future, we'll add those ingredients to this one as well. :)
