Amazing Omega 3 Blue Velvet Smoothie
Category: Beverages/Smoothies
Suitable for a: vegan diet
Ingredients:
------------------------------------------------------
For Two 16 oz Servings:
the flesh of one 3 lb ripe papaya
1 can of sliced mango, or the flesh of 3 mangoes
2 or 3 strawberries
4 ounces of blueberries, about 2 handfuls
6 grams of flaxseed oil
a few ounces of plain or vanilla soymilk
It is best if all the fruit used is frozen. If it's not, you'll have to add ice and the flavor and and texture will be diluted.
Instructions:
------------------------------------------------------
In a Vitamix, blender, food processor, or similar device, blend strawberries, blueberries, and flaxseed oil. When it's pretty smooth, add the mango and papaya and start to blend, added soymilk to lubricate the blending process. Keep adding soymilk until mixture is the texture you prefer to drink. Finished product is a thick, creamy, deep violet colored tasty beverage!
Additional comments:
------------------------------------------------------
Flax oil is vital for a vegan or strict vegetarian, as it provides a fishless source of the heart- and brain-healthy Omega fatty acids, papaya is good for nausea and aids in digestion, and mango, strawberries and blueberries are rich in vitamin C and other stuff that makes your body happy! This combination of ingredients in my opinion is the creamiest, tastiest smoothie you can make.
