Our Triple Berry Smoothie is as delicious as it sounds. If you can�t find fresh berries, frozen are fine; they�ll add an extra-cold crunch to the drink. (If you have leftover berries, premeasure and freeze them in Ziploc� Brand Double Guard� Freezer Bags with the Double Zipper Seal for later use.) Delicious anytime of the day, this smoothie makes a super-fast breakfast�packed with vitamin C, heart-healthy antioxidants, calcium, dietary fiber and essential Omega-3 fatty acids from the flax seed.
