Blueberry Plus Smoothie

July 30, 2009 · Filed Under Blueberry Smoothies · 4 Comments 

Here is a wonderful smoothie packed with fruity goodness. It all starts with the simple blueberry.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups plain yogurt
  • 1.5 cups orange juice
  • 1.5 cup skim milk
  • 1 cup frozen blueberries
  • 1 cup frozen strawberries
  • 1 cup frozen peaches

Put everything in the mixer. Blend. Drink. Serves 4 or so.

A pinch of salt will help bring out more flavor, but I usually avoid it. If you think the drink is still too sour (and it will have a bit of a tang to it) you can add honey or even sugar, but you really shouldn’t need to.

Using frozen fruit means you don’t have to use ice which waters down the drink.

I like a tart smoothie better than a sweet smoothie and I bet a few of you are like me. This smoothie recipe is for all of us who like a little pucker during our smoothie sipping. Let’s keep this smoothie recipe simple. And please give some feedback in the comments below if this was a hit or a miss.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups of lemonade
  • 2 cups of frozen strawberries
  • 1 cup of fruit yogurt. I like either strawberry or raspberry flavored. I also choose low fat.
  • 1/2 cup of ice
  • Garnish with a slice of lime if you want to get fancy

Not much else to do but blend and enjoy the tartness of life.

Blackberry Smoothie with a Twist

February 22, 2009 · Filed Under Dessert Smoothies, Fruit Smoothies, Strawberry Smoothies · 2 Comments 

Blackberries pack a punch of antioxidants and this blackberry smoothie will keep piling on the healthy nutritional value with loads of other great, healthy ingredients. Yeah, yeah, it has ice cream too, but you can swap out non-fat vanilla yogurt if you like.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup frozen blackberries
  • 2 cups ice cream (vanilla will do nicely)
  • 1 cup frozen strawberries
  • 1 cup 1% milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon of lime juice

I would like to try this with 2% milk as well or even using lemon instead of lime. So please leave a comment if you try this and let us know what you think of your smoothie tweaks.
