Swimmers need to make healthy food choices, including 'good carbohydrates' to fuel them through practices and swim meets. It always helps when snacks or meals taste good too ;) I'm a Trader Joes fan and one of my favorite quick meals is my Trader Joe smoothie, so dubbed because almost all of the ingredients are found at Trader Joes. Using my single serve blender, I combine:1 Cup TJs Soy Essential (soymilk)
1/2 ripe banana
1/2 to 3/4 Cup TJs 0% Plain Greek-style Yogurt
1 Tablespoon Honey
1 Cup (or a little more;) Frozen Strawberries
1/3 Cup Frozen Wild Boreal Blueberries (optional)
2 Tablespoons Quick Cooking Oats (optional)
Blend till smooth. Yum!
(Also try the Mango/Strawberry version by using frozen mango chunks.)
