I like to use fresh fruits such as blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, or even black (dark) cherries in season. I also dehydrate fresh fruit in season and keep on hand for baking. Smoothies are perfect in an insulated mug for nutrition on the go. My fave smoothie is with half ice, then banana, strawberries, and blueberries. Smoothies with fresh mango or pineapple and frozen wild blueberries are also yummy in the blender. In winter I also use dried powdered fruits and veggies in smoothies. One place I found carries hundreds of varieties of dried fruit and veggie powders. They manufacture health food raw materials for the big brands that put it into capsules. But they sell loose pure powder to the public in small quantities (by the kilo or 2.2#). It is in Buffalo, NY and is called Federal Laboratories. They have sent me blueberry powder, bulk spirulina powder, and many others in double-sealed bags and everything has kept fresh for over a year, some longer. They list hundreds of dried fruti and veggie powders at: http://www.federalabs.com/one_kilo_pricing.htm and seem to have everything from here to Tumbuktu. Its really amazing everything they have, and I add some of the fruit powders to muffins and breads. Nowhere else I know of carries all this stuff. They may be the only source.taetakacshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03473255831266317940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34579790.post-15955547316322496512009-08-18T09:26:19.284-07:002009-08-18T09:26:19.284-07:00Enzo, have you ever tried Living Harvest Hemp Milk...Enzo, have you ever tried Living Harvest Hemp Milk?

What a bummer, I've gotten so accustomed to my smoothie with yogurt being the foundation.enzohttp://pimpinpens.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
