Pineapple Smoothies - Pineapple Smoothies Recipes

Strawberries are good source of vitamins and nutritional value. These are things that stress can deprive us of and drinking fruit smoothies containing strawberries can help replenish us and keep us healthy.

Ingredients

• 2 1/2 cups strawberries
• 1/2 cup strawberry nectar
• 1 pitted peach
• 1 cup low-fat plain yogurt or strawberry yogurt if you don’t have the nectar.
• 2 cups ice

The key is putting slightly more pineapples than strawberries, and because the fruit is frozen you dont need ice. Tastes great and very healthy!!

Ingredients:

• 2 1/2 to 3 cups of Welch’s strawberry Breeze Juice (or fill blender little less than half way full)
