Christmas and Smoothies

Can it be that Christmas is almost upon us?? Of course this would be the time that my throat decides it would be fabulously funny to steal away my voice with the beginnings of a cold (a cold that I'm not going to let survive!) With Christmas, a wedding Saturday and Wednesday, throwing a shower for the best friend on the 1st, rehearsal on the 2nd and wedding of my 2 favorite folks on the 3rd - it goes without saying that I CANNOT be sick right now. Or ever.

So here's how I combat it. I do this everyday actually, so we'll see how it shortens this illness...
THE INSANELY HEALTHY WOW HOW CAN YOU DRINK THAT SMOOTHIE
3 tbs flaxseed oil without lignans
3 tbs ground flaxseed
1/2 cup of either organic cottage cheese or organic yogurt
1 cup spinach
6-10 baby carrots
1/2 cup no sugar added fruit juice (and none of that splenda/fake sugar stuff either)
1/2 cup soy milk
1 vitamin C capsule
10-12 large strawberries
handful of blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries, depending on what I have
1 small orange
1 banana

All that's pretty approximate. I just throw stuff in, really.

And to be perfectly honest, I can't even taste the spinach or carrots - I could be used to it, but I just taste fruit. I'm not big on sugar, but if you want it a littler sweeter, try adding Agave syrup (natural sweetener that won't spike blood sugar)

So if anyone is brave and wants to give this a whirl - let me know what you think of it!
