STRAWBERRY BLUEBERRY SMOOTHIES
A delicious start to your day. If I have extra I freeze it in ice cube trays so later I can just blend the cubes, so much better than wasting leftovers. My 2-year-old daughter loves it too!

Tips:
- Select ripe and fresh blueberries: Using ripe blueberries ensures a sweeter and more flavorful smoothie. Fresh blueberries are ideal, but frozen blueberries can also be used.
- Choose your greens: Leafy greens like spinach or kale add a nutritional boost and a vibrant green color to your smoothie. If you prefer a milder flavor, start with a small amount and gradually increase it.
- Add a creamy base: Yogurt, milk, or plant-based milk provides a creamy texture and adds protein and calcium to your smoothie.
- Sweeten naturally: Honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar can be added to taste, but ripe bananas or dates can also add natural sweetness without refined sugars.
- Experiment with flavors: Try adding other fruits like strawberries, raspberries, or peaches for a different flavor profile. Spices like ginger or cinnamon can also enhance the taste.
- Adjust the consistency: If your smoothie is too thick, add more liquid. If it's too thin, add more frozen fruit or ice cubes.
- Garnish with flair: Top your smoothie with fresh berries, granola, or shredded coconut for an Instagram-worthy presentation.
