MOAB Pomegranate Smoothie

Joyce and I were approached by SHOP 'n SAVE to try a new product, MOAB Superfruit Blend.  MOAB stands for Most Optimum Antioxidant Beverage.  They offer four flavors-acai, pomegranate, wild blueberry, and mangosteen.  These blends of exotic flavors are filled with antioxidants and even contain soluble fiber.  We are excited to have another giveaway so you can try the delicious juices by MOAB!

I was thrilled to try this new product; since the birth of my third child, a quick breakfast is necessary.  Smoothies fit the bill perfectly as my husband and I can throw them in travel mugs and be on our way.  This recipe makes two very large servings; I break it down into four to feed both parents and children.  My kids loved the flavors produced by the fresh fruit, yogurt and the juice which contains peach, plum, pineapple, and others in addition to the pomegranate.  I threw in the ground flaxseed as an afterthought; using it in smoothies was a suggested way to use it on the bag, and a great way to increase the amount of alpha-linolenic acid (plant version of omega-3) in our diet.


INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 1/2 cups MOAB Pomegranate Superfruit Blend (in the Pittsburgh area, available at SHOP 'n SAVE)
  • 2 bananas, peeled and sliced
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 1 cup fat-free Greek yogurt
  • 1 T flaxseed meal (optional)
DIRECTIONS:

  1. Combine all ingredients in a blender and liquefy.
  2. Enjoy! 

Difficulty: Easy
Time: 5 minutes
Source: An original by me!
