Berrylicious Smoothie Snack

So easy...so refreshing...so nutritious. I was craving something sweet & filling, but was feeling lazy. I usually have a freezer filled with frozen fruits & veggies. I opened it & said Ah Ha! Hence this gorgeous Berrylicious Smoothie.
I used all frozen fruit, fresh will work too, but then blend in plenty of ice.

Blend all together:
Raspberries
Blueberries
StrawberriesBanana
Splash of POM juice
Some water

I added some lime to mine, as I usually do. All these simple, healthy ingredients are good for you!
Bet you didn't know that raspberries contain lots of Vitamin C, fiber & help control inflammation.
Blueberries are loaded with antioxidants, which those with a lowered immune system need.

Strawberries are extremely good for you. They protect your heart, increase HDL (good) cholesterol, lower your blood pressure, and guard against cancer.

Bananas help your heart, eyes & bowels.

Enjoy your glass of sweet & healthy love!
