Today I made the decision to not follow any set recipe and liquify some fruit.
I'm trying to be on a bit of a healthy eating streak, which for me means less processed things and more raw, wholesome foods. The other day I was at Starbucks and got a smoothie thing in attempt to make a healthy decision. It was packed with all sorts of fruits and a few vegetables, and I decided I could imitate it at home!
I looked for a recipe online, but the ones I found required ingredients I was unwilling to get up and go to the store for. So I improvised! Yay! That could only go well, right? Sort of.
To begin, I put a banana and two apples in a blender and mixed it together. The result was a very unappetizing and lumpy goop. When in doubt, I tend to throw more things in. After rooting through the freezer, I managed to procure some frozen peaches, which I dumped in. This turned the mixture orange, how thrilling. Mostly because I am not fond of the color orange, I put in a cup or so of strawberries. Magically, the blender turned a very lovely shade of pink. I finally deemed the mixture ready to be tasted. Bracing myself for the worst, I boldly thrust my spoon into the blender. I then bravely brought the utensil cradling my concoction to my lips.
I was pleasantly surprised, it tasted great! The consistency is somewhere between a juice and a smoothie. I have created a smuice. And it was super filling. All that it's comprised of is fruit, so it's rather healthy as well. Yay for experimentation! I'll call it Bapple Pawberry Smuice.
