Today I want to share with y’all one of my new favorite snacks. An orange & cranberry smoothie! (Yes, I really do drink smoothies a lot!) I got very addicted to cranberries this past Christmas season, but I am just now getting around to posting some of the yummy recipes!
So, you want a quick, easy and yummy smoothie perfect for before your workout? Here it is!
Orange & Cranberry Smoothie
Ingredients:
1 orange
1/4 cup cranberries (I used frozen)
1 cup almond milk
1/2 scoop Young Living or Trim Healthy Mama‘s protein powder (those are my favorites!)
1/2 cup Greek yogurt (or cottage cheese)
pinch of salt
sweetener of choice (I use either 3 doonks of THM‘s stevia extract or a few squirts of a liquid stevia)
1-2 tsp. chia seeds
splash of vanilla extract
3 drops of Young Living‘s tangerine or orange oil (this really makes the drink!)
Blend with ice and enjoy the energy it gives you!
What’s your favorite pre-workout snack? Here are some of my other favorite pre or post-workout snacks!
Ooohhhh, I love cranberries! I want to try this but I can’t have the dairy…what do you think I could sub in for that?
I would use collagen instead! You can get it here—> https://store.trimhealthymama.com/#_l_129
Yum, this sounds delicious!
Looks delish! I always buy a few bags of cranberries when they’re available in stores, and sometimes they sit in my freezer for months. This looks like a great way to use them up, especially since I no longer make cranberry apple butter out of them (although I should experiment with making my recipe with stevia!).
