Smoothie

     If you read yesterday's post, you saw what could be done with just a few basic ingredients. Dried apples, dried blueberries and 1/2 a lemon. You get a great tasting iced tea. But you can do more with the leftover ingredients!


     After you have drained your tea, you will be left with plump re-hydrated fruit!
     What better than to use this mix to make a yummy smoothie!


If you aren't ready to make a smoothie the same day or day after making the tea, I would suggest pureeing and freezing the fruit in an ice cube tray. That way it will keep until you are ready to use it.

Smoothie

1/2 cup of any kind of milk substitute (I used Trader Joe's Almond)
1 banana
leftover fruit
Stevia to taste (I use liquid, about 8-10 drops)
2-3 tbsp Water (optional)

Place all ingredients in a blender, blend until smooth. Use the water to thin the smoothie if it is too thick.
Makes 2 servings

Each serving is 2 points on the Weight Watchers Points Plus program (just a note, I am counting the dried apples as having points even though they are re-hydrated.)
