Let's wrap up part eight of the Healthy Makeover Summer Eats Series: Fourth of July eats! Here's the duo of two healthier vegan versions of a few red, white and blue eats: (Flag Fruit Plate and Red, White and Blueberry smoothie)....
Red, White and Blue Eats: 4th of July.
1. Red, White and Blueberry Smoothie: Raspberries, fresh strawberries, acai juice, soy milk, fresh blueberries, coconut banana cream on top. Vegan.
*Healthier than a traditional frozen shake, or artificially colored frozen red, white and blue treat.
2. Fresh Fruit Flag Plate: Fresh cut white peaches, strawberries and blueberries. A simple fruit plate is always a winner!
*Healthier than most platter snack plates. 100% fruit means 100% healthy. And delicious. Use organic fruit or was very well.
One more to go in the Summer Eats, Healthy Makeover Series!
Next up, Readers Choice post! Voting closes on July 6th, 12 AM!

Hey Natalie!
Coconut Banana 'cream' is actually made by blending coconut flakes, frozen and raw banana, soy milk, agave, and coconut water ice cubes-see the recipe. Although an actual 'coconut banana' would be quite awesome...

I'm just curious as to what a coconut banana is!
