My Smooooothies…
My
Smooooothies…
1 6 Oz can of Pineapple Juice
8 Oz Plain Non-Fat Yogurt (You could use vanilla or a flavor, but I try to stick to the plain)
2 Bananas (frozen or not)
A couple of handfuls…cups of FROZEN Fruit… Take your pick-berries, mangos, peaches, pears… NOTE: I find that pineapple do NOT do well in the blender, that’s why I use juice.
A squirt of lemon or lime juice (to use as a preservative)
Blend it all up in pulses.
The key, I think is in using the frozen fruits. It gives it a good consistency and makes it instantly COLD!
I came up
with this basic concoction for fruit smoothies after seeing or trying some
other recipes that just didn’t work for me.
You can change it up however you like- but the basics are: Juice, Yogurt and FROZEN Fruit.

You could
also add a dash of vanilla extract and or cinnamon. Cinnamon is nice when you use peaches.

You can keep
this in the fridge for a day or two… but I find mine are gone within 48
hours! I like to drink them in a fancy
looking margherita glass, sitting on the porch in the sun. I usually get a hankering for these in the
spring and summer, but you can really enjoy them any time!
