    Source of Recipe


    CH Journal

    List of Ingredients




    2 1/2 cups fat-free vanilla yogurt, fat-free milk or soy milk
    1 cup blueberries, rinsed, drained and picked over for stems
    1/2 cup blackberries, rinsed and drained
    1/2 cup raspberries, rinsed and drained
    2 Tablespoons ground flax seed

    Optional
    2 Tablespoons honey for a sweeter smoothie
    1 medium banana for a thicker smoothie (a good idea if you�re using milk rather than yogurt)

    Recipe



    Add all the ingredients to the blender. Mix on high speed until smooth, about one minute. Pour and serve immediately.
    Variations: Use any combination of berries you want. (If you�re using frozen berries, look for frozen triple-berry combos available in most supermarkets.) To reduce calories, use fat-free plain, unsweetened yogurt and sweeten to taste with honey or artificial sweeteners.

    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.
