Anti-Inflammatory Smoothie
I love to incorporate turmeric into our diets because it is a powerful herb to say the least. It makes food a pretty color, so it isn't hard to get your kids to eat these options!

*Tips- To get your nice cream to set on top without sinking freeze smoothie just until it starts to freeze and get thick, then top with nice cream.
*Always buy good quality organic turmeric. If you buy cheap not only is it irradiated, but it may possibly not be 100% turmeric, and therefore you will not receive the benefits.
*"Nice"cream is optional. If you want to make it, a couple of hours before making smoothie place peeled banana, cherries, and raspberries in the freezer.
