I don’t necessarily think that New Years means that you HAVE to immediately start dieting, but I feel like it is a good time to start out fresh. I like to refine my eating and exercising habits after the holiday bingeing is over. I recently did a cleanse to start out fresh before my move. One key component to a cleanse is flushing out your system and getting detoxifying nutrient, which makes this smoothie perfect for a cleanse.
This smoothie uses unsweetened cranberry juice and no dairy, yet it tastes SO good! If you are not trying to cleanse, you could add milk to the recipe; I am sure it would be delicious. I also think coconut milk might be pretty tasty too. Keep your eyes peeled for the core of my cleanse, a detox green machine soup, which I will be posting next week!

Umm. It looks lovely.
Wow, it looks so thick and creamy, I’d never guess there’s no milk/yogurt involved! Tasty!
Smoothies are such a lovely way to start the morning. I usually have a smoothie a couple days a week to start off my day. I usually add milk but I bet the unsweetened cranberry juice would be so delicious! Good luck with your cleanse!
I made some blueberry smoothies last week that used green tea! They were delicious! I wish I made time every morning to make a smoothie. It is a great way to start the day! Looking forward to that coconut smoothie recipe!
Oh Yum! I want this tomorrow for breakfast!
The cranberry addition looks interesting! Will surely get some next time i make my foodie run! I’m a smoothie lover!

My problem is that I hate bananas. Any suggestions for a substitute?
Well if you want the milky feeling without the milk, I would say bananas, but if you are OK with milk I would just substitute milk in, or even almond/soy milk.
