Great Tasting Fruit Smoothie Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup of frozen pineapple or peaches (When I am freezing it I separate it into freezer baggies so it is ready to go)
- 4-6 strawberries (depending on size)
- 1/2 cup of milk. Can use soy milk if you prefer.
- 3/4 – 1 cup of plain yogurt (I have also experimented with other flavors but my family likes plain the best)
- 2-3 tablespoons of sugar – or – substitute honey for 1/2 of the sugar.
- 3 ice cubes
- 1 banana
- 1/2 cup of juice (I usually use orange or apple)
- Protein powder or wheat germ can be added if you like.
Directions:
Put it all in the blender and in less than a minute you have two fruit smoothies to enjoy. Sometimes I will freeze the juice into ice cubes and use them.
