Lots of Fruit Smoothie
All begin with a base of:

• 1⁄2 c. plain, vanilla, or strawberry yogurt
• 1⁄4-1/2 c. milk then perhaps some fruit juice, usually orange or Dole specialty juices, 1⁄4-1/2c. Followed by fruit in many varying combinations, always including either banana or melon.
• 1 banana
• Handful frozen or fresh strawberries or blueberries one 4-5″ wide slice out of a cantaloupe or honeydew melon
• 1 kiwi

Then I’d blend it till I was pleased with the result. I found that melon added a lot of sweetness and made a nice background taste. I don’t
always use juice when I use the melon. We especially liked melon and blueberries, bananas and strawberries.
