This morning I decided to try to make a smoothie... not hard... but I'd never done it before. I had a bunch of yogurt around and some leftover strawberries and blueberries from the fillo cups I made on Monday.
I started by just using the yogurt and the berries but it was a little too thick and too sweet. The milk was the perfect addition to thin it out and also balance the sweetness. Jeremy liked it too (although I drank all of this for breakfast... just gave him a small sip). This made 2 16 oz. glasses of smoothie.
I will certainly be trying this in the future with frozen berries for when I don't have nice fresh berries around. This was a great change for breakfast. :)
Recipe:
6 oz. fat free strawberry yogurt
6 oz. fat free blueberry yogurt
6 oz. fat free vanilla yogurt
1/2 c. fresh strawberries, tops removed
1/2 c. fresh blueberries
approx. 1/3 c. skim milk
1. Add all ingredients but the milk to a blender. Blend until smooth.
2. Add milk as needed until it's the desire consistency. (I added about 1/3 of a cup and still had a slightly thick, delicious smoothie.)
3. Pour into a glass and enjoy!
