Do you remember when I said yesterday that fruits, vegetables, and herbs contained natural sweeteners in a natural state? Well, a great way to harness that sweetness in a drink is by making a smoothie!

I love my NutriBullet and use it often. I don’t add sweeteners. Here’s my favourite recipe:

• 1 banana
• 1 small pear
• 1 small apple
• 4-5 frozen mango chunks
• handful of baby spinach leaves
• cold water

Cut banana, apple, and pear into chunks. Place everything, peel and all, in the large Nutribullet cup. Add the blade and blend. Enjoy!

These sweet fruits make for a sweet smoothie. The spinach adds a veggie serving to your day. Plus, there is natural fibre in the leaves and peels.
