You Choose the Fruit Smoothie

Ingredients:
* 1/2 cup of your favorite fruit, such as blue berries, rasberries, strawberries, peaches, pineapples, bananas, etc. p
* 3/4 cup of yogurt
* 1 cup of milk
* 1 tablespoon of sugar (optional)

Preparation:
Peel the fruit, if appropriate, and cut them up into small pieces.
Put all of the ingredients into a blender and puree them together until smooth.

Pour into a chilled glass and serve with a straw.
Keep in mind that you may have to add ice or use frozen fruit if you really want to serve it cold. Also, a banana may be needed to get the smoothie to the right consistency (thick and creamy).

If you want to make your Smoothie Healthy you can choose to use these healthier ingredients:
* use nonfat yogurt
* use skim milk
* use an artificial sweetener
* add a supplement, such as Carnation Instant Breakfast Mix, to get more vitamins, minerals and calories into your smoothie
* keep the skin on when using fruits like apples and pears to get extra fiber into your smoothie

I have a smoothie at least once a week, they are a really great way to get the servings of fruit you need.
