Basic Smoothie Recipe

Weekly health tip:

If you're looking for a healthy summer snack for you and the kids,
try this basic smoothie recipe:·

16 oz. liquid (soy milk, milk, juice, coconut milk, etc.)·
8 oz. plain yogurt·
1 ripe banana (If you have ripe bananas, peel and cut them into chunks, then freeze them for later.)·
1 ½-2 C. frozen fruit·
I Tbs. honey if needed-most fruit combinations don't need any extra sugar. Put all ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth.

Get creative. When you feel brave, here are some other things you could add: peanut butter, fresh mint, nuts, seeds, granola. For a naughty twist, try chocolate syrup with cherries. Yum!
