QUENCH YOUR THIRST WITH THE SPRING’S COOLEST BLENDED BEVERAGES
CHOCOLATE BANANA SMOOTHIE Ingredients: 3 medium bananas, sliced, frozen 3/4 cup low fat vanilla yogurt 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon honey 1/2 cup low fat milk
THIN MINT PROTEIN SMOOTHIE Like a healthy milkshake for adults, the smoothie can satisfy any craving. Fruits, veggies, tofu and, dare I say, chocolate are all commonplace in healthy smoothie recipes. We’ve collected our favorite nutritious blended drinks to keep you cool, refreshed and healthy this summer. A few reasons why these smoothies are so healthy: Spinach is filled with powerful antioxidants. One cup of spinach has nearly 20 percent of the RDA of dietary fibers, which aid digestion, and curbs overeating. The flax seed in the Papaya Smoothie contains Omega-3 essential fatty acids, lignans, and fiber and can reduce the risk of heart disease, cancer, stroke and diabetes. — Ingrid Sjostrand
