Cooking with Carrie Cool Summer Treats

During the heat of the summer nothing is better for cool summer treats then the use of lots of berries.  I usually keep bags of frozen berries from the previous summer to help make these delicious treats all thru the summer as my berries get ripe so late in the summer.

Mid day shake for something light and nutritional.

In you blender add 1 cup juice of any kind
                              1 cup soya or almond milk
                              1 portion of your favourite green drink mix
                              green drink mixed are powders fill with all
                              kinds of vegetables and fruits and other
                              nutrients.

                              1 cup frozen berries of choice

Blend until creamy Cooking with Carrie

It may not look pretty, but tastes delicious and is nutritional.
