How To Make a Heart Healthy Smoothie
To make a heart healthy smoothie, combine fresh strawberries, blueberries, oranges and papaya. Add these heart healthy ingredients to a blender with 1 cup soy milk and 1/2 cup ice cubes. Blend until smooth.
Is it healthy to use frozen fruit for smoothies?
Absolutely! I always keep fruit in my freezer for smoothies. Fruits can be purchased already frozen or you can freeze fresh fruit in freezer-safe bags or plastic containers.
When purchasing frozen fruit at the grocery store, it’s just as healthy as fresh fruit. Frozen fruits and vegetables are frozen shortly after they’re harvested, locking in their nutrients.
If using frozen fruit in this heart healthy smoothie recipe, you will need to add little to no ice. The frozen fruit will make the smoothie cold, thick and frosty without the addition of ice.
Is this smoothie recipe kid friendly?
This smoothie is definitely kid friendly! It’s naturally sweet from the fruit, but as I mentioned above, it can also be sweetened up more with honey or agave syrup. This smoothie is a great way to load your kids up with vitamins and nutrients first thing in the morning!
