My Breakfast Smoothie

Smoothies are very poplar. That might be because they are so easy. Put fruit, juice, and ice in the blender, and instant smoothie!

1 banana 
1 small orange 
1/2 cup cranberries 
2 tablespoons flax with chia seeds 
1 cup coconut milk
3 ice cubes 


Break up the banana. Put in the bottom of the blender. 
Peal the orange, add the rest of the ingredients. 
Blend until smooth. 
Makes almost 2 cups. 
Oh, and of course it's dairy and gluten free.


Enjoy
