Note: The culture starter and the yogurt starter are two different starters. The culture starter will not make yogurt and the yogurt starter will not make cultured vegetables. They have different species of beneficial bacteria in each and will yield different, possibly less than desireable results.

THICK & CREAMY FLAX SMOOTHIE - submitted by Vidya P. of Great Neck, NY
Ingredients:
3 heaping tablespoons freshly ground brown and golden flax seed meal
1 cup Raw Milk -or- Milk Kefir (diluted with water)
A handful of ice cubes
1 scoop undenatured whey protein (such as ImmunoPro)
1 tablespoon unsweetened organic cocoa -or- non-alcoholic flavoring (Frontier Brand is best)
1 scoop FOS (such as EcoBloom)
Liquid Stevia drops to taste
Instructions:
Place freshly ground flax seed meal into a large mug. Cover with hot (NOT BOILING) clean, filtered water. Cover with a paper or kitchen towel. Let this mixture stand for one hour then place in the refrigerator until cool. It will become very thick.
Spoon this chilled flax seed mixture into a blender of Vitamixer. Next, add raw milk or diluted milk kefir. Blend thoroughly. Add remaining ingredients and blend until smooth and creamy! Adjust cocoa and stevia to taste. If you have a dairy intolerance, simply leave out the raw milk or milk kefir suggested in this recipe. In place of the milk, dissolve 2 to 3 scoops of whey protein into 1 cup filtered water.
** Don't forget to take your Assist for Dairy and Protein Digestive Enzymes along with this protein-rich smoothie to further aid in digestion! **
