Canada Food Guide Smoothie

February 6, 2019

I have been making smoothies for quite a while and I always thought mine was nutritious but after I really studied the Canada Food Guide I realized I could make my smoothies a virtual powerhouse following the Canada Food Guide rules. The following is one I make. (You may choose your desired amount of ingredients accordingly.)

Ingredients

Almond Milk ( can use any milk- goat milk really adds thickness)
2 tsp Flaxseed Oil ( you can use real flax or chia seeds but I have difficulty digesting them)
Pineapple
Mango
Kale
Avocado
Protein Powder

Instructions

Blend until it is the desired thickness. You probably have to add some water to liquify more.

This smoothie has 1 milk serving; 2 fruit; 2 vegetable; 1 fat and protein. It is nutritious, healthy and filling.
