Love strawberries and kefir? Then you’ll love this smoothie. The majority of my recipes call for between 4 and 6 ingredients, and some up to a whopping 15. This recipe is the simplest to date, with only 2 ingredients, both of which should come as no surprise :) My girlfriend and I recently purchased 13 quarts of strawberries from a local Amish farm. Many were eaten on the drive home, others sliced and dehydrated, and the rest frozen for smoothies. Like most berries, strawberries are rich in a variety of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory phytonutrients and are not too high in sugar. My second f ..read more

Gelatin: The Forgotten Protein Packed Superfood
Healthy Smoothie HQ
by Healthy Smoothie HQ
3y ago
Gelatin may conjure images in your mind of that slimy, unnaturally green and orange dessert you got in the cafeteria with your school lunches, but dessert made with gelatin is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to using this potent superfood. Gelatin is a byproduct of meat processing and comes from the bones and connective tissues of animals. It may sound unsavory, but these parts of animals are actually extremely good for you. There was a time when people consumed nearly all of an animal, while today we simply end up with the processed and packaged meat, or muscle tissue. What we are m ..read more

Yes, this smoothie does taste every bit as good as its name would suggest :) I’ve created many flavorful smoothies over the years, but can’t take credit for this one.

I recommend you stop by her site and try some of her recipes.

Strawberry Ice Cream Smoothie

This is my new favorite snack on a hot summer day. Blend frozen strawberries with just enough liquid for a thick, cold, ice cream like consistency. Otherwise known as a bowl of deliciousness. Strawberry season was fast and furious this year. We loaded up and froze 2 flats worth, which is 16 quarts. They are supposed to last several months, but at the rate I’ve been making this strawberry ice cream they’re not going to last nearly that long. I’ve covered the health benefits of strawberries in other recipes. Here’s a quick rundown. They are a great source of antioxidants in the form of vitamin C ..read more
