June 8, 2009 · Filed Under Fruit Smoothies, Yogurt Smoothies · 1 Comment 

Yeah, yeah, I know. Carbs are bad. Well, not when they are being delivered in a great smoothie recipe. Most fruit smoothies are full of delicious “evil” carbs, but this one pours it. Now you can pour it out, the Carb Smoothie, that is.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup yogurt (any flavor, but vanilla is a good base)
  • 1 cup apple juice
  • 1/2 cup blueberries
  • 1/2 cup strawberries
  • 1 small banana
  • 2 cups of ice

Blend, drink and exercise off all those carbs. ;-)
