Coconut berry smoothie is light, refreshing, flavorful and low in calories. Perfect for breakfast or a snack for adults and kids.
Sometimes I need something to drink from time to time that isn’t water or a carbonated drink and fruit smoothies are a great alternative. Often times, smoothies and other drinks can be high in calories and it’s typically not worth sabotaging your goals for a drink, but this smoothie is ow in calories. The best part is it only takes 4 ingredients, plus ice. You can make this for breakfast, or a snack in between meals.
What are the benefits of eating strawberries?
Strawberries are very healthy and are an excellent addition to a healthy diet. They are very rich in antioxidants. Fresh strawberries are high in water and low in carbs and are a good source of vitamin C, manganese, folate, and potassium.
When are strawberries in season?
The peak season of strawberries falls between April and June, though the strawberry growing season runs from January through November.
Do I need to keep my strawberries refrigerated?
Yes, strawberries should be kept in the fridge because they are a perishable food that does not continue ripening after being picked. The will rot much quicker being left at room temperature.
Do I need to wash my strawberries before eating them?
Strawberries should remain in their packaging until they are ready to be used. They should be washed before being eaten by placing them in a colander and rinsing them under cool water.
