Here's a good reason to grab some extra pints of berries from the local farm store during your next market run. Fresh berries, tossed into the blender along with quinoa flakes, apple and pomegranate juice, makes for a healthy, nutritious, lip-smacking smoothie.

Frozen fruit works better than dried fruit.

Hi OneMessy Chef, I think your berry smoothie is as sweet as you ! Hey, I'd like to ask you one thing, is strawberry gelato really required in this ?

MessyMom says :

Gelato is NOT required, it's a special treat. Our basic every-day smoothie is 1 cup strawberry yogurt + 1 banana. Then we add fun things from there.

Hi OneMessyChef, can you please tell me what is quinoa flakes? Is it some kind of cereal? If I don't get it, is there any substitute for this ??

MessyMom says :

Quinoa is a small round grain. It is similar to rice. It's probably healthier, tastes milder and nuttier, and is very versatile. Quinoa flakes are simply flakes made from Quinoa. Some people serve them like oatmeal. We bought them at a health food store.
