Lent : Days Three and Four
Day Three
I think I can get used to this vegan thing if I get to have smoothies like this every day.
I went to Vons today to get some soy milk and wouldn't you know my luck, Silk was on sale!! To make it even better they had a flavor I hadn't seen before, " Very vanilla". ( photo courtesy of Silk website).
When I came home, I apprehensively took a sip of the very vanilla... and O . M. G. -- heaven in a glass.
Then, inspired by the 80 degree weather I decided to make a smoothie.
Ingredients
1 orange, peeled
1/2 cup frozen berries
1/2-3/4 cup Silk - Very vanilla
Blend and enjoy :)
