I thought blackberries were supposed to be black!  Here you go, an ALMOST fat-free smoothie.  Supposedly there's 1g of fat in blackberries and bananas. huh?

Among the several smoothies I've made, this is the first time using blackberries.  I blended a half of sweet ripe banana, a few scoops of non-fat (yes, non-fat) plain Dannon yogurt, 2 cubes of ice and a few black berries.  It turned out a vibrant purple and tasted yummy.  Note that: bananas are sweet ripe when there are black spots on the skin, and I don't use the whole banana because then it tastes like drinking banana, which is too much.

I'm also not on a diet, but for those who are, this is a simple healthy smoothie that is almost fat free.  Now according to nutritiondata.com, there is 1g of fat per blackberry and per banana serving, but since you're using half a banana and a little bit of blackberry, technically I think it would be about 1g of fat.  I wouldn't worry about that because it's a small amount and naturally comes from fruits.  Besides that, the berry is full of antioxidents (the darker the better), and the yogurt has good bacteria that helps keep your colon healthy.   Enjoy!
