Editor's note: The recipe below is excerpted from Cal-a-Vie Living: Gourmet Spa Cuisine and is part of a healthy and delicious spa menu developed exclusively for Epicurious by Cal-a-Vie. Ingredients:
8 ounces frozen blueberries |
8 ounces orange juice |
1 cup fresh pineapple, sliced, plus additional wedges for garnish |
2 whole strawberries, plus additional berries for garnish |
1 teaspoon flax seed oil |
1 scoop vanilla protein powder |
2 tablespoons splenda |
Directions:
1. Place all ingredients in blender at high speed for 1 minute. Add additional orange juice if smoothie is too thick. If the mixture is too thin, add more frozen blueberries. Pour into chilled glasses, garnish with half strawberry and pineapple wedge.
2. *Any kind of protein powder can be used for this smoothie. Some brands recommended by Cal-a-Vie are Jay Robb Whey Protein, Biochem Sports Whey Protein, and Solgar Whey to Go Protein Powder.
3. Chef's notes: · If you would like to avoid sugar substitutes, you can use 2 tablespoons of regular sugar rather than Splenda. · Using frozen blueberries rather than ice makes this smoothie thick without diluting its flavor.
