Friday Food Fun: Pink Berry Smoothie

After the tart fiasco last week, I thought I'd better make this week's treat more healthy. And I think I have a new favorite!

Pink Berry Smoothie

1 c mixed berries, fresh or frozen

I used a mixture of cherries, raspberries, blueberries, & strawberries.

1 c cranberry juice

1/4 c yogurt

I used nonfat plain Greek yogurt for extra protein.

1/2 frozen banana

2 T agave nectar

1 t vanilla extract

1 T flax meal, optional

Put it all in the blender and mix.

Yum!

Makes one 16 oz serving, or two 8 oz for sharing

I made lunch out of this and couldn't wait until the photo shoot was done...

Some other pink treats you could try:

Lemonade with Raspberry Ice Cubes

Pioneer Woman's Raspberry Crisp

Coconut Milk Strawberry Ice Cream

Watermelon Arugula Feta Salad

Ina Garten's Summer Borsht

Hey, that list could be the menu for a great summer party! 

Let me know when it's all done and I'll be right over!

Right now I'm gonna go and finish my delicious smoothie.

P.S. Send your fuchsia craft makings. Challenge closes at midnight tonight!
