Doc Watson

These hot dog days of summer can leave you listless and not wanting to cook or eat. For something refreshing and also nourishing try my Doc Watson's Basic Protein Shake.

8oz of Fluid (4oz fruit juice, 4oz chilled water)
1 Serv Protein Powder
1 Serv Essential Blend
1 Tbsp Essential Fatty Acids (Flax Oil)
Handful of Frozen Fruit (optional)

My favorite juices are tangerine and pineapple juice. Best tasting proteins are Source Naturals Whey to Health or Peaceful Planet Rice Protein. Number one Essential Fatty Acid combination is Udo's Choice Oil Blend in liquid form. The best blend of green superfoods and herbs is Circle of Life Essential Blend. Essential Blend combination can give you much needed nutrients you are not getting in your daily diet, especially if you are not eating 5 to 8 servings of vegetables per day, which most of us are not.

Blend up all the ingredients listed until smooth and enjoy something refreshing and tasty. Just the ticket for these hot days of summer. Great for an after workout pick-me-up, too. If you like ice cream, but don't eat it much, think about adding some plain yogurt to the recipe and whip it up until frothy then fold the contents into a container and place in the freezer for several hours. The results are delicious. Try orange juice and peaches with small pieces of peach added after the blending just before freezing. Be prepared for ambrosia.
