Chocolate, Banana, Cranberry Smoothie with Selefina Spices #Sponsored #SundayFunday

When I am busy preparing for the holidays but need to make sure that I keep my energy up, I turn to smoothies for a quick, easy and nutritious breakfast that I can sip while working in the kitchen.

The Sunday Funday Bloggers are sharing Thanksgiving Breakfast Ideas today......

Amy of Amy's Cooking Adventures is hosting today and asked us all to share some recipes for Thanksgiving Breakfast asking......

What do you serve on Thanksgiving morning knowing that a big meal is in store? Let's share our ideas!

Anxious to see what the others fuel up on for Thanksgiving Breakfast?  Let's take a look......

• Mayuri’s Jikoni: Bread Egg Kottu 
• A Day in the Life on the Farm: Chocolate Banana Cranberry Smoothie 
• Amy’s Cooking Adventures: Donut Hole Turkeys 
• Cook with Renu: Open-Faced Celery Avocado Sandwich
• Palatable Pastime : Pork Cracklin’ Breakfast Scramble 
• Sneha’s Recipe: Sabudana & Potato Khichdi 

 I was approached by Selefina Spices and offered an opportunity to receive free product for use in recipe creation and product review on this blog.  I did not receive any monetary compensation and all writings and opinions are strictly my own.

I really appreciated that Selefina provided me with a gift code so that I could choose the spices and seasonings that I wanted and needed.  I was intrigued when I saw the Cranberry Juice Powder, especially with Thanksgiving right around the corner.  

I had never heard of nor tasted Cranberry Juice Powder before so I was anxious to give it a try.  This smoothie is my second experiment with it.  I was very pleased with the wonderful tart goodness it gave to the glaze I used on my Sweet Potato and Cranberry Quick Bread so I knew it would be perfect for flavoring this smoothie as well.  

I used one teaspoon of the powder in this smoothie which will give me all the health benefits as if I had used cranberry juice or cranberry sauce.  This is a wonderful product to have in my spice drawer as I don't always have juice or sauce on hand and I can still get the same taste and effect.
