Disclaimer:  Since I have to test these recipes and make sure they are fit for human consumption, I changed her recipe just a tad. . .  I needed to make sure that I had my daily count of friut and vegetables, so as you can see from the picture;  I added an orange slice, blackberry, marcino cherry and blueberry.   VERY HEALTHY don't you think
