Dark Berry Lemon Smoothie

For a few months now I’ve been making myself a delicious smoothie for breakfast and occasionally dinner. I’ve come up with a couple of good recipes so I thought I’d start sharing them with the world. ;-) I haven’t tried to figure out all of the nutritional information, so you’re on your own there, but I do know they are tasty. I hope you enjoy!

Ingredients

• 1 fresh banana
• 3 large strawberries
• 2 slices of lemon rind
• 1 cup of frozen blueberries
• 1 packet of frozen acai berry puree (I’m currently using Sambazon smoothie packs.)
• 1/2 cup of vanilla yoghurt
• 1 scoop of protein powder (I like vanilla Biochem 100% Whey Protien Powder.)

Directions

1. Add all of the non-frozen ingredients together and mix until liquified.
2. Add the frozen ingredients and mix until smooth. (It’s easy to get whatever consistency you prefer with the frozen blueberries. You can start with just a few, mix, and continue adding until your smoothie is as thick or thin as you like.)
