I got this Blueberry Bliss Smoothie recipe on the back of my Vanilla Jay Robb Whey Protein Powder. This is a great tasting smoothie and is loaded with antioxidants from the blueberries and lots of protein from the 2 scoops of protein powder. We like to add almond butter to our smoothies around our house, it adds a nice nutty flavor…that statement totally reminded me of the Austin Power’s movie where Mike Myers drinks Fat Bastard’s poo and said “MMMM, NUTTY”! After totally being grossed out now let’s get back to Bliss, Try the Blueberry Bliss Smoothie today…thanks for the recipe Jay Robb=}

Orange Blueberry Pecan Muffins

These muffins are unbelievably orangey-(if that is a word) and packed full of blueberries and just enough nuts for crunch….  I love blueberries so I always put a lot into the recipes I have—so if you are tempted to add more, trust me—you wont need too!!!

Preheat oven to 375F degrees.  Put muffin cups in 12 cup pan.
Mix in med bowl the following wet ingredients:
3/4 cup Blueberry Kefir  ( buttermilk or yogurt will work)
1/4 cup melted butter
1/2 cup honey
1 egg
2 Tablespoons orange juice
2  1/2 Tablespoons grated orange peel
IN SEPERATE BOWL add the following dry ingredients
1 cup flour
1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1 & 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp Baking Soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 over full cup of chopped pecans

Blend dry ingredients together and fold into the wet ingredients.
Fold in 1 and 1/2 cup blueberries.
Fill muffin cups full… and bake for 25 to 30 minutes..

Not too sweet and lots of flavor…. Its hard to have just one!!!!   I cant do it!!
And sooooo easy to make….
