Ok, so I have been doing some research on the herb Plantain. The beauty of this plant is that it grows wild all over this area. Free is beautiful. Everyone I know here has plantain growing in their yard. So this morning, I went out in my yard and cut me some plantain and made a smoothie. I took some pics of everything I put in the smoothie. I put in plantain, frozen strawberries, 2 very ripe bananas, chia seeds, 3-4 dates, and a dash of agave to sweeten it.

This is what plantain looks like.

This only shows one banana, but I ended up putting in another because I wasn't used to the different taste.

Not bad at all. My hubby and niece both liked the flavor. It almost had a coconut flavor in it. Yum!
