Maia's Magic Smoothie

After Maia was diagnosed with her third case of pneumonia in fewer than 6 months, I was desperate to try anything to help boost her immunity and overall health.  We started making a smoothie each morning in March, and now the day just doesn't feel right if we don't have one. (I should also note- since we've been making this, my hair has been growing like crazy and is the healthiest it's ever been.  It must be the flax seed oil- highly recommended if you're in the mood for longer hair.)

The quantities for this are intentionally vague- they vary depending on how many people will have the smoothie, daily and individual preference, etc.

Frozen Strawberries

Frozen Pineapple or Peaches or... whatever you're in the mood for

Frozen Sambazon Acai Berry Pulp Smoothie Pack

1 ripe Banana

1 packet Emergen-C powder

2 Tbsp Flax Seed Oil

1 tsp Mother's Necessity Essential Green powder (http://mothernecessity.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=3)

Organic Low Fat Vanilla or Strawberry Yogurt (I prefer Stonyfield Farms)

1 - 3 tsp Raw Agave Nectar (the acai is bitter, we add this to taste depending on what other fruits we've used; less with pineapple for example)

Orange Juice

Put all the ingredients in a blender and blend to the texture and consistency you like.
