As the heat index in going up, it is once in a while necessary to have something to cool down. Ice creams, smoothie, sorbet etc are all good. Yesterday during the usual grocery shopping, I saw that blueberries and blackberries are on sale. Blue berries and black berries are rich in antioxidants and I love forward to a good sale price on these. One box of blueberries cost about 1.50 dollars and black berries cost about 1.00. I was very happy and picked them to put in shopping cart. I had some strawberries in my refrigerator. Strawberries are my weakness, and I always will have a box in my refrigerator during the strawberry season.
So this morning I was lazy and decided to make something that is easy to make: a smoothie for breakfast. As my little one loves to do taste testing from my glass, I added one mango to smoothie. She loves mango, if you give her mango smoothie she is more than happy. Otherwise it is very hard to get her to even have a sip. I wanted to add yogurt instead of ice cream to make it a healthy drink. I know ice-cream make it a rich and sweeter smoothie. Both black berries and blueberries go well with yogurt, ice-cream or whip cream. So I made a smoothie with strawberries, blackberries, blue berries and mango ad also added homemade yogurt and ½ tablespoon of honey for sweetness. If you want more sweetness you can add 1 tablespoon. Here easy healthy colorful smoothie recipe.
Black berries: ½ cup (I used fresh one)
Strawberries: 5 no (I used fresh one)
Mango: 1 no
Yogurt: 1/3 cup
Honey: ½ tablespoon
How I made
Peel the skin of mango and cut into small pieces. Keep aside.
Combine Blackberries, Blueberries, chopped mango and strawberries, Yogurt and honey in a blender; cover and blend until creamy. Serve immediately. Enjoy.
Preparation time: 5 minutes
Yield: 2 serving
Verdict: Yummy
Will you make it again: Yes I will
