This week on bethcakes, it’s Smoothie Week! It’s actually just through Wednesday. But there are maybe two healthy-ish recipes on this blog and I am going to change that.

Partially because everyone and their momma are posting smoothies and healthy recipes right now since it’s January, and partially because I have GOT to start eating healthier. I am such a picky eater and it is beyond ridiculous. People are usually surprised by this and they say, “But you love to cook!” And I’m like, “NO, I really love cake!”

My problem is that I hate the texture of most fruits and vegetables. I do like the flavor of most fruits though. The only vegetables I really like are the “starchy” ones, like potatoes and corn and mac ‘n’ cheese.

Smoothies are a great way for picky eaters like myself to get in their daily dose of healthy stuff. My favorite smoothie of all time is frozen banana, peanut butter, and a little cocoa powder. The thicker and more like ice cream, the better! Strawberries are probably my second favorite thing to put in smoothies (even though I still really hate the seeds). I came across a strawberry cheesecake flavored yogurt at the grocery store when I was buying my weekly amount of vanilla (I know it’s boring!), and knew I had to make a smoothie with it.

It’s basically yogurt and frozen strawberries and almond milk. Pretty simple! I’m not even sure you can call that a recipe, but here it is! 🙂
