Sometimes I have lots of stuff laying around with no real plan for it.
Sometimes I don't have time for a regular meal.
It's the Anything Goes Smoothie to the rescue!
Greek yogurt makes it smooth and creamy, the agave sweetens the deal and ice cubes froth it to chilly perfection. Anything else can be subbed out. Knock yourself out - use apple in place of peach or cooked carrots instead of bell pepper. Sub the brown rice protein powder out with any one you like and ditch collards in favor of kale, spinach or turnip greens. Anything goes! It's a thick and frosty treat that packs a nutritional punch. And it's vegetarian, if anyone's keeping track. Hmmm, could be vegan if cultured soy was used instead of Greek yogurt...where's my blender?
What? {blink, blink} Oh right....here's the recipe:
1/8-1/4 cup of water
1/4 cup Greek yogurt1 whole small ripe peach
1/2 bell pepper
3 large collard green leaves, center vein removed
2 rounded tblsp vanilla brown rice protein powder
1 tblsp agave nectar
3-4 ice cubes
Start with 1/8 (aka 2 T aka 1 oz) water and only add more if needed to get the smoothie going. Throw everything in the blender except the ice cubes and puree till smooth. Then toss in the cubes and hit it again.
