Dinner Smoothie

Posted on April 7th, 2010

After getting back from a run the other day I found myself very hungry, as usual. Normally I make a smoothie and prepare something else to eat along with it, but I had lots to do that night and decided I would have to survive on just the smoothie. What I came up with ended up being extremely filling and really delicious. I’m calling it the dinner smoothie. I also didn’t use much liquid in this one either, so it ended up being very thick. You really need a Vita-Mix to create this one, but if you don’t have one, just add more rice milk or water.

The Recipe

5oz of frozen mixed berries
5oz package of frozen mangoes
2-4 TBSP of almond butter (approximate, I did not measure)
1/4 – 1/2 cup of raw honey (approximate as well) agave for 100% vegan
about 1/2 cup of rice milk

Directions: After combining all ingredients into your Vita-Mix process until smooth. You will have to use your tamper on this one to force the frozen fruit down into the blades. Don’t be afraid of the churning sounds! Your blender can handle it, you have the top of the line machine!
