Cruncy Granoloa Smoothie

March 9, 2010 · Filed Under Breakfast Smoothies · Comment 

No time for a bowl of granola cereal? Take a granola smoothie to go. Great breakfast smoothie.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup 1% milk
  • 1 banana
  • 2 Tbs honey
  • 3/4 cup granola
  • 1/2 cup ice

1 serving, but it is a delicious serving. Feel free to use more or less fat in your milk as you prefer. I like a little milk fat, so I chose 1%.

  • 1/2 cup low-fat vanilla yogurt
  • 1/2 cup 1% skim or 1% milk
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2-3 ice cubes (optional)

Preparation
Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth or to desired consistency then serve in glasses.

Blueberry Plus Smoothie

July 30, 2009 · Filed Under Blueberry Smoothies · 6 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.

Combine bananas, pineapple, milk, strawberries and honey in a blender. Blend until smooth, no lumps. Start adding ice slowly and blending until slushy. Pour into large glasses, preferably chilled then garnish with whipped topping, chocolate syrup, and maraschino cherries. The perfect banana split in a glass.
