Blueberry Plus Smoothie
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.
