Blackberry Banana Smoothie with Greek yogurt, a great start for the morning. It is thick, luscious, creamy, and satisfying.
It is not often that I buy blackberries but when I do see them at the grocery store, it is hard for me not to place a pack in my cart. I think they are beautiful berries with the most awesome shade of purply berry color when pureed. Though not always the sweetest berries around, they do give a nice tang to salads and are awesome in smoothies.
Today’s Blackberry Banana Smoothie is a quick one I whipped up for myself for a light lunch. A smoothie was all I needed after a late breakfast. It was thick, luscious, creamy, and quite satisfying. I added a little honey as a sweetener since both the blackberries and plain Greek yogurt were a little tart. I am glad I did as the taste of the smoothie turned out to be just about right – not too sweet and not too tart.
This recipe is sufficient for two if taken together with other foods for breakfast. It makes for a large portion for one but is perfect if taken on its own as a light lunch. Keep it for yourself or share it but definitely try it! 😉
