Another thing that was different than usual was that we had no ordinary oranges left, only blood oranges, which I had never tried in a smoothie before. The result of not making my usual smoothie was delicious!
I had made smoothies slightly different to my usual in the past, but this one really had a zing to it. I am having it as I write, and it really is something. I have stumbled upon a good combo!
I think I'll call it...Red Spark, or maybe Red Zing... as it really and truly is very zesty!
I am trying to stay healthy and have more smoothies, and use the exercise bike once a day (except on days where I have a dance class). So far, this past week, since last Thursday I have exercised (including dance) almost every day! Except for two days, for which I have excuses (one was the time of month, and as many girls out there will know, you don't always feel like doing much when you're on your period! And the other, I just didn't have the time that day, But I did end up walking a lot when getting buses and such, so maybe that was a good enough dose of exercise?).So with that in mind, I've only gotten back to my smoothies today, and will now try (again) to make one every day, except of course if there really is no time to make one. But I'll try not to let that get in the way of staying healthy!
Here are the ingredients I put in my smoothie, try it out, it's delicious!
- Lots of frozen raspberries (not sure how much I put in, but hey, they're small enough, so there was quite a bit in there!)
- About 4 frozen strawberries
- 2 blood oranges
- Half and apple (it was a generous enough sized apple, not one of the tiny ones)
- A small bit of almond milk ( I wasn't sure what it would turn out like, as I've never put any milk in my smoothies, usually sorbet, but it definitely worked out in the end!)
Until next time,
