I made a simple green smoothie this morning using some of my frozen mint and frozen berries. Freezing some of your smoothie ingredients is a great way to make them last longer. I regularly by extra greens just to freeze. Simply wash and dry them before adding them to a freeze safe container and freezing them.

For the recipe, I used frozen raspberries, blackberries and mint leaves. I love mint, (and really just need to grow my own), but it always goes bad before I use it all. Freezing it is a great way for me to make it last longer.

Please help me grow my Pinterest and Instagram following. I am finally on those sites so don't forget to give me some love over there! I'd really appreciate it.
