1 cup water, soymilk or low fat or skim milk
1 cup fresh or frozen berries of your choice (try a medley of raspberries, blueberries, and black cherries)
2 Tbsp. flaxseed meal or flax oil
Ice and Agave Nectar to taste
Optional: 1 scoop of vanilla or chocolate whey protein powder
Directions:
Combine water or milk, berries and flax in a blender. Cover and blend until smooth. Taste. If you want it to be thicker, add ice. If you want it sweeter, add a tbsp. of agave nectar. If you want extra nutritional punch, add the protein powder. Natural food stores carry a wide variety of these; just make sure to not buy meal replacement powder.) If you want more good for your skin nutrients, blend in some vegetables like cucumber or broccoli too. With the sweetness of the berries, you won't taste the vegetables.
