Lemon Meringue Smoothie
Now that the outdoors is warming up and I’m enjoying more of this beautiful spring weather, I find myself gravitating to smoothies. There’s just nothing more refreshing on a warm day.
I keep making my Superfood Shake over and over, so I decided I needed to branch out.
Something that has been making my smoothies that much more delicious is NuNuturals liquid stevia. NuNaturals just sent me a couple of their new flavours – lemon and orange. Delicious city.
Here’s a yummy-licious smoothie I made for my afternoon snack yesterday. I love it because it has a lot of protein as well as the detoxifying benefits of lemon. Serves 1.
Lemon Meringue Smoothie
- ¼ cup Greek yogurt, plain
- ¼ cup cottage cheese
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 12-20 drops liquid lemon stevia
- 1 cup ice
Blend until smooth. Top with a lemon garnish and enjoy!
I did a post about the chocolate and vanilla liquid stevia a while back (these are terrific for adding to sweet, dessert-like shakes) and I loved those!
These fruit flavours are just as nice! I am having a fantastic time adding them to my smoothies.
Why I like the flavoured liquid stevias:
- added flavour, but no calories, carbs, fat, or sodium
- natural – nothing artificial
- zero glycemic index – sugar free
- no bitter aftertaste
Love, love, love.
Bonus Recipe: I almost made this smoothie for yesterday’s breakfast…a delicious orange shake that reminded me of an Orange Julius. I even managed to grab a picture with Instagram before I drank it. Serves 1.
Orange Bliss Smoothie
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 orange, peeled
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 1 cup ice
- 10 drops liquid orange stevia
- ¼ cup cottage cheese
Blend until smooth and enjoy!
Okay, so here’s the cool part. NuNaturals is going to give 4 of my readers a chance to try the lemon AND the orange liquid stevia! Yay!
