So this is totally reminiscent of an orange creamsicle. Don’t believe me? You should make it and see for yourself. It’s a blueberry blend of creamy citrusiness (yeah I made up a word, so what? lol)…..IT’S TOTALLY YUM! It may not have the traditional orange flavor of a creamsicle, but it’s a nice berry-citrus infusion that’s a welcome treat.
During the last 2 week challenge in my Challenge Group (my Facebook group, learn more here), one of the guidelines was to have more smoothies. I was looking for some new Fuel Pull shakes to enjoy and I came up with this one. (Fuel Pull is a Trim Healthy Mama term meaning low-carb, and low-fat) I really enjoy being able to have a giant smoothie entirely on its own as a meal. So they need to be protein packed and hearty enough to carry me those 3 hours THM suggests you wait between your meals. This Blueberry Lemon Creamsicle Shake, is delicious, filling and protein packed and it’s a giant of a glass full …..I can easily fill a 32 oz (1 quart) glass jar with this recipe. I’m not joking, it’s gonna fill you up good. ♥
Really any excuse to use my super-duper fantastic OmniBlend blender is good enough for me. My OmniBlend blender makes up the best smoothies I’ve ever had, I just ♥ ♥ ♥ it.
