4 ingredient Fiber Packed Smoothie

 I've been needing to add a little color to my life and for my health.  What better way to do that then a yummy nutritious (hardest word I've ever had to figure how to spell, by the way) Smoothie!!  

Now, If you are like me and have gained a few pounds and you aren't a huge fan of veggies....or fresh fruit AND you are lazy and don't like to put a lot of effort into your healthy eating  (I know, I totally suck in the healthy department)then this is the perfect smoothie for you.

NOT JOKING!!!!!!  SIMPLE, YUMMY, HEALTHY!  

Ready for it?

Are you??

OKAY!  HERE GOES!

Tia's Healthy Smoothie (yep I created it with all of my amazing craftiness)

2 cups Pomegranate Blueberry 100% JUICE V8 V*FUSION
3 cups of mixed wild berries (raspberries,blueberries,&blackberries)
1 heaping handful of kale or spinach 
1 packet of Turbinado Sugar (I use SUGAR IN THE RAW)

BLEND UNTIL SMOOTH....you know..since it's a SMOOTHie. 

I drink the whole blender full and it keeps me nice and full and gives me energy! 

It is a total of 460 calories in the whole blender.  But they are healthy bulky fiber filled calories, not icky empty bad calories.

If you break it down we are looking at

460 calories
0 yes 0 ZERO grams of fat
180 mg sodium
100 carbs
80 grams of dietary fiber (which for non diabetics this can cancel out 80 of those carbs)
vitamin A 36%
vitamin C 206% (oh yeah, hello happy immune system)
Vitamin E 20%

This also provides more than a full daily serving of fruit and a full daily serving of veggies recommended intake of veggies.  

4 simple ingredients is all it takes
