I have been adding frozen cherries from cascadian farms to my smoothies and they are SO GOOD. I don't eat chocolate because of the caffeine (and I guess sugar and fat too) but I think the cherries have some of the antioxidants that chocolate has because I get the same good feelings after eating them that I do from chocolate. They are SO GOOD! I almost feel guilty about how good they are, but why? They are "health food" Right?
:)
More cherries, please!
I googled it, and cherries contain anthycyanins 1 and 2, healthy antioxidants not contained in blueberries (from the red color) - no wonder I like them so much! Good to get that dark red in there!
yay!
:)
Here's what I put in my smoothie:
banana, frozen cherries, NF milk, whey protein powder, peanut butter, carob powder
the peanut butter and carob powder make it taste sweet and rich (as does the whey powder) so it's like drinking a healthy milkshake!
