I’ve gotten myself into a rut with my smoothies lately being the same old, same old…bananas, baby spinach and sometimes some frozen strawberries or orange pieces. Today I wanted to try something new and inspiring.
Just before the holidays we purchased a really great juicer. This is something I’ve always wanted, or thought I wanted. So far I’ve enjoyed juicing carrots, apples, oranges and even making almond milk. Pretty good stuff!
Today was the day to be daring. I tossed my banana in the blender then tossed a pomegranate into the juicer. I added a couple of tablespoons of the pomegranate juice to the banana and blended away. A little extra water was added since I knew that I didn’t really want pudding. Tossing in some baby spinach made this a great snack for me!
The outcome? Not too bad. The pomegranate was a little tart for me but for those who really enjoy this juicy fruit, I’m sure it would be loved be all! A little more spinach or romaine would have been a great asset.
I wonder where my imagination will take me next time?
