Smoothies are a wonderful meal because they often can be adapted from what is available at the time. And I enjoy drinking them during busy times. Here’s one of my favorites. It’s delicious enough that my younger brother even forgot it was healthy.
Ingredients
1 banana
1/2 to 1 cup frozen berries (raspberries are the favorite)
1/2 to 1 cup non-fat yogurt (Stonyfield has a yogurt called Banilla that is simply perfect for this smoothie, but otherwise french vanilla works well)
1 Tbsp Nutella (heaping) (I keep planning on trying plain old cocoa powder and forgetting)
Milk (dairy, soy or rice – you pick) – just enough to smoothie-fie
Wheat germ (or other healthy additives.) – enough to be good for you, not enough to change flavor
Instructions
Throw ingredients into a blender. Puree away!
This should make enough for two smoothies or one really large smoothie.
*Side note – if drinking this smoothie on your drive to work make sure you have a toothbrush. Raspberry seeds are unsightly.

If you get it right it almost tastes like a chocolate raspberry milkshake. It’s amazing!
