Mambo Sprouts

Fairy Berry Flaxseed Smoothie

Recipe submitted by Brandi T. of Queen Creek, AZ, for the Mambolicious Recipe Contest 2009.

Ingredients:

• 11 frozen blackberries
• 1 cup frozen strawberries
• 1 banana frozen and cut up into chunks
• 1 cup Brown Cow Vanilla Cream Top yogurt
• Santa Cruz Organic Berry Nectar–fill to 5 cup line on blender
• 2 TBSP whole ground flaxseed meal
• 1 cup ice

Directions:

1. Add the ingredients to a blender in the following order: blackberries, strawberries, banana, yogurt, Berry Nectar (which I filled to the 5 cup line), flax seed and then finally the ice.
2. Just blend until smooth.
3. I like to stick the whole blender jar in the freezer for about 10-15 min. to thicken it just a tad and to make it really cold. (For the fruit, I used fresh and put it all in the freezer.)
