Cranberry & Honey Smoothie & A Giveaway

Cranberry Honey Smoothie

I couldn’t help myself – making smoothies with my new Nutri Ninja is appreciably effortless.  I had to try this Cranberry & Honey Smoothie!  I love cranberries and lets face it they are in abundance in the stores right this minute, canned whole, jellied, fresh and frozen.  Oh and you know I love honey too!  Cranberry relish is one of my favorite condiments on Thanksgiving and I love biting into those juicy little bursts in cranberry orange bread or muffins.  I knew these little red gems would be a yummy addition to a morning smoothie!

Today I needed a quick get-out-the-door breakfast and this healthy smoothie was perfect.  Light yet filling.  I assure you using my new blender makes smoothie prep super simple.  All you do is add the ingredients, starting with the heaviest ones, like nuts or fruit; then add liquids and ice, place the container on the blender, hit “Auto iQ” and you’ve got time to kiss your honey goodbye while the blender does the rest.  Seriously, once you hit the button the machine pulses all on it’s own and turns out a delicious smoothie.  Leaving you ready to pop the lid on and hit the road.
