Doesn't that frosty goodness look absolutely delicious?Trust me and 5 kids on a 90 degree day. It was spectacular.
It makes me question why it's only taken Birdie 2 months to convince me to try making smoothies. Even though I bought the frozen fruit for them 6 weeks ago, I'll admit it. I was scared. What if I didn't like them? There's plain yogurt in smoothies. What if it actually tasted nutricious? What if only my kids liked them and not me?
Yeah, I know. I'm still not up for mother of the year.
Healthy or not, I'm considering making another round.
I'll let you other non-smoothie drinkers in on a little secret. It tasted surprisingly similar to a strawberry adult drink I enjoyed while the kids were at camp last week. I'm even considering buying some of that health conscious protein powder to add to them for breakfast. Do you suppose I might be able to get a little protein into my carb-a-holic 13 year old with these frosty delights? Whoo-hoo!
If you too are new to the smoothie idea, here's how we made them.
Berry Delicious Smoothies
- 2 cups frozen strawberries, blackberries, blueberries
- 1/2 cup vanilla low-fat yogurt
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup 1% milk
- A few splashes of cranberry-apple juice
Place all ingredients into blender and puree until smooth.
ENJOY WITH A SMILE!
