Yield: 2 medium smoothies

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups plain or vanilla almond milk (I really like almond milk and/or hemp milk in this smoothie, but you can use another non-dairy milk if preferred)
• 1/2 cup water (or more non-dairy milk)
• 1 1/2 cups frozen sliced banana (fairly ripe/overripe is best)
• 1 cup frozen strawberries (or fresh)
• 1/4 cup goji berries
• 2 tbsp whole flax seed
• 1/4 tsp cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

1) Add all ingredients to a high-powered blender and puree for a few minutes to ensure the goji berries and flax seeds are pulverized and well incorporated. Makes 2 medium-large smoothies.
