College Dorm Smoothie
Most of us don’t really have a package of frozen strawberries or a container of plain yogurt (not to mention flaxseed) lying around, but we crave smoothies too! So this is for you, ESPECIALLY if you’re a college student and you can swipe all these items from your dining hall.
Ingredients:
- 4 ice cubes
- All-fruit Popsicle (I used Edy’s strawberry Fresh Fruit bar)
- 1/2 cup of orange juice
- 1/2 cup of milk
- 6 oz flavored yogurt (I used Yoplait light banana creme pie)
- 1/2 banana
- 1/3 packet of instant oatmeal (I used Quaker Low Sugar Strawberries and Cream)
and just blend it all up!
Submitted by a college student, obviously.

Banana Split Smoothie
Too lazy to eat a banana split? How about drinking a banana split? Bananas are great smoothie ingredients so why not bring the split to the smoothie? You can add a scoop of vanilla ice cream if you wish, but it tastes great without it.
Ingredients:
- 2 bananas
- 8 oz. crushed pineapple, drained
- 1 1/4 cup of milk
- 1/2 cup of unsweetened strawberries (frozen or fresh)
- 2 tbs. honey
- 6 ice cubes
- 1 scoop of vanilla ice cream (optional)
Garnish
- whipped topping
- chocolate syrup
- maraschino cherries
Preparation
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.

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.

- 1 1/2 cups of frozen blackberries

Blend until you can’t wait and then add the whipped cream.
