Super Energy and Antioxidants Smoothie

I just wanted to share with you, something that has quickly become a family favourite... SMOOTHIES!! Not just any smoothie, but a drink packed with Vitamins, Iron, Antioxidants, and a good serving of your daily fruits and vegetables.
Dave and I have kinda been feeling exhausted when we wake up in the mornings, and then again half way through the afternoon. So I knew our bodies were lacking in energy, needed for each day.

So I found these really awesome Smoothies, with ingredients that may make you go, "Yuck, that sounds nasty," but you will be surprised how amazing they taste and what a difference you will feel.

1 cup of mixed berries (blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, cherries)

1 banana ( We go through heaps of bananas in the Belgrave home, so I buy heaps some to eat and some to freeze in ziplock bags.)

1/4 cup of carrot juice

1/4 cup of apple juice

1 tbsp honey

1 handful of spinach (fresh or frozen)

Put in a blender and mix er up! I send them to work with Dave in a travel mug. And if my husband will drink them, they gotta be good!  The first few drinks I made for him I didn't tell him what was in it, because I know it would be a mind over matter thing. So once I found out he really liked them and was enjoying them, I revealed all my secrets.
