3 Things I really like:
- My Kitchen-aid immersion blender
- specifically for making smoothies
- This OXO water-bottle washing set
- specifically the straw brush, it gets all those pesky berry seeds out in NO time
- My new smoothie recipe below – it was fantastic!
I thought this up early one morning as I was ready to run out the door. While it’s not a low-calorie smoothie, it has lots of good protein, plus servings of dairy & fruit, all while it tastes like dessert. My favorite way to start the day!
Also, I have to say that I love the doTerra Trim Shake powder. It actually does mix into liquid. It doesn’t taste like garbage & it’s designed to fight cortisol (the stress hormone can causes you to store fat). It’s a winner & we add it to almost all of our smoothies.
Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Smoothie
Ingredients:
- 1c – 1 1/4c strawberries & bananas (we use frozen, but fresh will work, too)
- 1/4c peanut butter
- 1/4c Nutella
- 1 1/2c milk
- 2 tbsp yogurt
- 1 scoop of doTerra’s Chocolate Trim Shake powder
Blend all ingredients well. Add ice cubes & blend for a thinner smoothie.
