This evening I made a smoothie that goes like this.
3/8 c frozen blackberries
3/8 c frozen strawberries
1/2 c fresh spinach
2 tbsp cottage cheese
1/8 tsp xanthan gum
1/8 tsp guar gum
1/2 c water
1 sweetener
1 tsp vanilla extract
I decided to break down the nutrients and was pleasantly surprised.
100 calories.
4.5 g protein, 4.5 g fiber, 30% vitamin A, 55% vitamin C, 7% calcium, 10% iron, 7% potassium and 1-2% of B-6, phosphorus, magnesium and copper.
1 1/2 servings fruit + 1/2 serving vegetables + 1/4 serving dairy
Pretty dang nutritious for only 100 calories!
I'm trying to come up with as many nutritious, easy, tasty, filling recipes as I can to help me stay on track.
This is definitely going on the list.
