Fruit and Spinach Smoothie

This smoothie is a keeper!  I tried it today and was pleasantly surprised.  Not only is it a really healthy breakfast it is fast and tastes great too!  Yum!  I've also tried it with 1/4 c. frozen blueberries instead of the peaches and it is delicious too! And if you're worried about the spinach DON"T.....you can't even taste it.

Fruit and Spinach Smoothie
(from jennalaughs.com)

1 cup vanilla soy milk
1 whole ripe banana
4 frozen strawberries
4 slices frozen peaches
1 tablespoon milled flax seed
1 handful (about 3/4 cup) raw spinach leaves

Put everything in a blender and blend until well combined.  Serves 1-2.

Peppermint Patties

These  homemade peppermint patties look so fun and easy.  Can't wait to try them!
