Smoothie Recipe

By Diann Parsons

I wanted to share a recipe for everyone to try.  It’s a good way to get some extra fruit in your diet and feel like you are treating yourself!

Smoothie

1 4 oz container of strawberry nonfat yogurt

1 cup frozen strawberries

1 cup frozen blueberries

1 cup frozen cherries

2 cups orange juice

1 cup fruit punch Gatorade

Puree all ingredients in blender until smooth.

I sometimes add a handful of raw spinach leaves – you can’t taste them but they add some extra nutritional value.  When I have leftovers, I freeze it in individual serving size containers and have it for an evening treat.
