Very Berry Protein Smoothie

Very Berry Protein Smoothie (serves 1)

1 cup mixed berries
1 cup unsweetened almond milk or whole milk yogurt
2 tbsp hemp protein powder or ground flax seeds
1/2 packet stevia or a drizzle of maple syrup
5 ice cubes

Put all ingredients in a blender, turn it on high and blend until smooth.

Berries are in season now so visit your farmer’s market to see what is fresh.  This smoothie makes a great breakfast drink for on the go or a fun treat for a late afternoon snack.   Be adventuresome and use different types of nut milks or sweeteners.  A dash of vanilla extract would be tasty too!
