I always crave something sweet after dinner. Having fresh blueberries on hand as well as some coconut, I decided to make a refreshing and healthy smoothie. I used flax seeds to give myself a little fiber boost as well as a bit of crunchiness. The coconut added a bit of sweetness and texture too. Serve this chilled or over ice – an easy and healthy after-dinner dessert!
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt
- 1 1/4 cup skim milk
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 tsp honey
- 1 tbsp flax seeds (optional)
- 2 tbsp shredded coconut
- fresh mint to garnish
Directions:
- Blend all ingredients together until smooth and serve over ice
- Garnish with fresh mint
I have been loving smoothies lately. Have you ever tried freezing them? You can eat them with a spoon after and they are more like sorbet/ice cream. Delicious!
