Smoothies are Yummy!
Something about summers says smoothies to us. I don't know why because they really are good anytime of the year and I usually use frozen fruit anyway. But my daughter has been begging to make smoothies. So we did. We only had lemon yogurt and she really wanted to have a kiwi drink. So she made an interesting smoothie mixture but it was good. Here's her recipe for Banana Kiwi Lemon Smoothies.
Banana Kiwi Lemon Smoothies
Ice cubes
Container of lemon yogurt
1 kiwi sliced into pieces
1 banana cut into pieces
Splash of milk
Put all items into a blender and then mix until well blended.
She drank a glass full through a straw of course. Then she put the leftover smoothie mixture into Popsicle forms. We always do that when we make smoothies. That way we don't waste any and we have a healthy summer treat for another day. Not a bad idea, right?
Those smoothies were okay but here's the recipe for my favorite kind.
Berry Smoothies
Ice cubes
Container of vanilla yogurt
Frozen strawberries
Frozen blueberries
1/2 banana sliced
Splash of Orange Juice
Mix all ingredients in blender until well blended.
One of my favorite things about smoothie recipes is that you can really customize them for everyone. If you want mangos or pineapple or any other fruit (or vegetable) then add it. You probably just want to make sure that you pick flavors that go well together. But interesting combinations can be fun too. So this summer take some time to enjoy an icy treat or breakfast drink. It's always fun to change things up!
