A light, quick, refreshing cherry smoothie. This is a great snack smoothie as it is so low in calories – only 56 cals per serving – so won’t crash a healthy eating plan, plus it hides some greens which are always good for us!
I love that smoothies are so flexible. If I want a quick light snack or a full meal replacement smoothie I can find one, or adjust one, quickly and easily.
Talking of adjusting a smoothie to make it a tasty, filling, meal replacement, it is very easy to do. How? Adding a few oats and almonds or coconut would do the trick nicely.
The recipe is from Tania at Cooktoria and you’ll find the details at the end. (We have also included links to other tasty smoothies.) Tania says …
The ingredients are simple and they create a wonderful texture and taste. All you need is some frozen cherries, spinach, banana and some milk.
If you don’t have frozen cherries, substitute them with strawberries; it will work just as well. Feel free to add a touch of honey if you like things on the sweet side.
See what I mean about smoothies being flexible, lol!
