Smoothies...

We have been enjoying a new little treat around here: smoothies!  This past year my kids got hooked on the strawberry banana smoothies from McDonald's so I started thinking I should learn to make them.  I am a little embarrassed to even post my "recipe" because it is so easy!  I have been whipping these up each morning and my kids cannot get enough.  Its great, especially for those mornings where they just don't eat a thing...now I know I am sending them off with a full belly.  You can tailor your smoothie to your family's taste buds by choosing their favorite fruits and veggies.  To add a little immune boosting power try adding a vitamin-mineral powder like Emergen-C. 

Recipe:

*this is not an exact science but this makes about 3-4, 8oz. smoothies

handful of ice

1-2 cups of pineapple juice

2 cups frozen fruit

half banana

2 Tbs plain or vanilla yogurt
