If you feel
like you’ve packed on a few extra pounds over the long, cold winter, now’s the
time to start taking them off and shaping up. After all, swimsuit and shorts
season is right around the corner! To help you out, I dug around our recipe
archives and found a terrific green tea smoothie recipe that’ll fill you up and
energize you. Swirl it up in the afternoon to send your hunger pangs packing.
Heat a cup of
water until it’s almost boiling. Add the tea bag and steep it for 3 to 5
minutes. Sweeten the tea with 1 teaspoon of honey, and then pour it into a
blender. Add 2 cups of frozen blueberries, 1 banana, and 1 ½ cups of fat-free
milk. Process until smooth, then pour it into two glasses for you and a friend
to enjoy.
New research
suggests that drinking green tea with every meal may boost your metabolism—so
you’re getting that fat-burning boost, and a lot of other nutrients with every
sip of this ingenious little whip-up. Enjoy!
