Hey! How are you doing? I am sore and tired. We spent the weekend building a kick-ass fence, after taking help from The Best Fence Company in Austin TX! We had a lot of amazing help and really couldn’t have done it with out everyone we had assist us! Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you!! Because I was building a fence all weekend, I didn’t have a chance to write a substantial post, so I have this back up post for an “in-case-I-got-so-busy-I-couldn’t-write” kind of weekend! I am writing a piece that will show the fence we built, so you have that to forward to! But for now, here’s a little back up post!

Do you like smoothies? I don’t personally drink/eat a lot of fruit smoothies, but my husband loves them. I have one basic recipe that I use to make his morning smoothies.  In his opinion, they keep him feeling full and boost his energy level, which are both great!

Fruit Smoothie!

Ingredients

• 1 ripe banana
• 1 ½ cup assorted frozen fruit see note
• 1 tbsp ground flax
• 2 scoop Progressive PhytoBerry® optional
• 2 scoop Progressive VegeGreens® optional
• ¼ cup plain fat-free greek yogurt
• ½ cup 100% fruit juice see note
• ½ cup milk use skim, whole, almond, soy, coconut, etc...

Instructions

1. Put everything into a blend and blend until smooth.
2. Pour into two glasses.
3. Drink immediately, or store in fridge in a covered cup for 1-2 days.

Recipe Notes

Assorted frozen fruit - use anything. I use Kirkland's frozen mixed fruit or a mix of frozen peaches and raspberries. Try different combinations!
100% fruit juice - I use pineapple. Use your favourite!
Progressive PhytoBerry® and VegeGreens® - Optional

As you can see, the ingredients are simple, and you can mix them up by adding different fruits, fruit juices, or try coconut milk to give it a more tropical flavour!
