The S um m er M iracle S hake By: William M . In the summertime, everyone is battling the heat at barbecues, lakes, and pools. When arriving home, no one wants to spend time in the kitchen to prepare a meal. However, they crave something refreshing, yet filling. I created a recipe for a summer shake that is not only refreshing and filling but also nutritious. I refer to this shake as the summer miracle shake, because it satisfies everyone?s appetite, thirst, and nutritional needs. The bananas and soy milk in the recipe will satisfy anyone?s appetite. The ice cream in the recipe makes the shake refreshing and creamy. Lastly, the oats and flaxseed will meet parental approval. Recipe 2 cups of soy milk ½ cup of butter pecan ice cream ½ cup of chocolate ice cream 1 tsp. of vanilla 1 banana 2 strawberries 2 tbsps. of oats ½ tsp. of cinnamon 2 tbsps. of brown sugar 2 tsp. of flaxseed Add all of these ingredients to the blender and blend for one minute. Makes one shake. Enjoy!
