So last night I came up with another great “humidity food” — and as we were sipping them, we realized just how much nutrition you can pack into one of these babies — SMOOTHIES!  We were blessed with a kickass blender as a wedding gift which makes ALL the difference.  Last night we went the banana / blueberry route, added a little Rice Dream, berry juice, and green kale.  It was so tasty!  And, with all of those goodies, it was packed with calcium, B-12, vitamin C, iron, folate, potassium, fiber, and antioxidants.  I promptly declared 2010 the “summer of smoothies”.  What are some of your favorite smoothie combinations!?

    I am getting a Vitamix for Christmas (finally, after 5 years of wanting one!) and I cant wait. I make some type of smoothie every single day. I love to throw in 1 orange, the whole orange just minus the rind obviously, 1/2 frozen banana, huge handful of spinach or other dark green, and a handful or two of frozen berries. It is so good and refreshing! I love smoothies, and drink even more of them through the summer.

    it’s incredible how you blend it all up, and it tastes SO GOOD. seriously. kale and bananas and blueberries in a bowl would be weird, but in a smoothies, DELICIOUS!!!!
