Thirsty Thursday: Tripleberry Soymilk Smoothie with @Truvia Sweetener


We're now into the second month of the new year. Are you still keeping up with your goals or resolutions you made? I know it's hard. For me, being in my second trimester, I'm finding that I'm having a somewhat difficult time controlling my cravings. There are just days that I want to eat a big juicy burger and fries and there are days where all I can think about eating is ice cold fruit. Luckily, my hubby has been helping me stay focused on eating healthier throughout this pregnancy, so when I crave a burger, I get one, but it's a turkey burger and although it's not the same as beef, it sure did the trick in satisfying my cravings.

If you remember some time last Summer we had the pleasure of reviewing and creating a nice cool Strawberry Lemonade drink with Truvia Sweetener. It's a calorie free sweetener from the stevia leaf that replaces the need for your every day use in sugar. You can use it on a number of food and drinks. We've used it in coffee, baking, cooking, fruit, drinks and so much more. I love that for every 1/3 teaspoon you get the same amount of sweetness you would if you used sugar.

Replacing your sugar with Truvia Sweetener can bring you one step closer to eating a bit healthier and keeping you focused on a new you this year.

That's why the first Thirsty Thursday of 2014 for Just Us Girls is this Tripleberry Soymilk Smoothie for instance. Drinking this in the morning for breakfast is a great way to not only start your day, but make you feel like you're getting the best of both worlds since it's super delicious. This drink makes for with a total of only 100 calories. How awesome is that?!
