Berry-licious Smoothie

You might be wondering why I am writing about a smoothie on a beauty blog... but there IS a method to my madness :)

Do you know how amazing blueberries are for you??? 

1) They have the HIGHEST antioxidant capacity of all fresh fruits!
2) They neutralize free radicals in the body.  In turn, this helps you look and feel younger! (not to mention prevent diseases)
3) Last, but certainly not least, blueberries can keep your brain and eyes sharp!

Smoothies are great for the morning rush and they are so healthy (if you make them right ;) hehehe)

Recipe:

1 cup frozen blueberry/raspberry/blackberry (frozen fruit mixture)
2 tbsp plain greek yogurt
1 swirl of honey (optional)
1 mint leaf (optional)
1/2 cup fresh squeezed orange juice (or you can use bottled OJ... jsut stay away from anything that you have to mix... try to stay fresh!)

Note:

If your smoothie is a little on the thick side, add some water (or more OJ) to the blender and mix again.

Enjoy!  It's DELICIOUS! :)
