Smoothies...

[Seeker64]

My family and I are ice cream lovers - unfortunately it isn't all that good for us. So, I recently started making smoothies for a more healthy and satisfying treat. (We still love ice cream, but we limit it to a McDonalds cone for $0.59)

You will need a Blender.

Any frozen or fresh fruit that you would like to be the base flavor of your smoothie. I buy frozen bags of strawberries, peaches, and blueberries from Wal-Mart.

I start off with 3/4 cup of Soy Milk.
2Tblspns of wheat germ.

Add the fruit till it fills up the blender about half-way and then blend.
2Tblspns of honey
1 tspspn of vanilla
1 cup of plain yoguert

Blend again until all smoothed together.

I then add various amounts of yoguert, honey, and fruit to suit it to my taste.

My kids love it and so do I - it is very refreshing!

God Bless,

Add a tbsp. or 2 of flax seeds. It adds Omega-3 (the same thing you can get from fish without the fishy taste) among other health benefits.




God Bless!!

I hate yogurt so in our smoothies we use ice, fruit, and splenda.

that is so cool, cuz that is my exact smoothie recipe and u used it!! it disturbs me when ppl use ice instead of frozen fruit becuz it gives it such a nasty consistency as opposed to smooth...
