Healthy Goodness

Late last night fhbf and I were feeling the munchies. We made a vow not to eat after 9pm but that's when we get the hungriest. Instead of eating junk food, which is usually the first idea that comes to mind, I made a drink I like to call "Royale".

In a blender add to taste the following:
- yogurt
- fat free milk
- peaches
- mangoes
- strawberries
- pomegranate juice (I removed the seeds, blended them and strained the juice)
- orange juice
- sugar or simple syrup
Add the liquid ingredients first and then the fruit. I used frozen fruit except for the pomegranate. I didn't add ice since the ice from the fruit will make it a cold drink. Start with chopping and then puree. If you like chocolate as much as I do, rim your cup or glass with chocolate syrup. There is also the Royale v.2 aka Royale Flush. It contains all the same ingredients but with a touch of alchohol. I tried it with Cruzan Rum Cream and it's ok. White rum gives it a better taste. Next time I will add coconut and keifer instead of sugar. Mmmmmm =)

You can have late night snacks but make sure they are healthy and small portions.

Enjoy!
