[Recipe] Low Calorie Blueberry Lassi Smoothie

This is a delicious, smooth, blueberry lassi smoothie from Sneh at CookRepublic. It serves 4 with a light meal or 2 for a more filling option.

Sneh was not having a bad day, she was having a bad week – tell me about it, lol She made this recipe and felt better for it. She says she …

… chose blueberries because in addition to being antioxidant powerhouses, they also help keep your mind young and alert. Something I was in dire need of. Although baking a loaf of bread would be my zen-activity, I chose not to do it this time. With my current frame of mind I would have definitely set the house on fire. A lassi strangely, calmed me down.
