Creamy Blueberry Banana Smoothie

Creamy Blueberry Banana Smoothie

If you create this smoothie with a Vitamix you will absolutely love the fluffy, creamy texture.  Mmmm Deee-Licious!! Definitely one of my favourites. Very high in vitamins A and C, a great source of iron and calcium and lots of fibre! Not to mention the antioxidants from the blueberries.  All in all a nutritious powerhouse!
