A Great Anytime Smoothie

Since I’m trying to eat healthier lately, I’ve really been trying to incorporate more fruit into my diet. But I often get bored just snacking on an apple or banana. While I was sitting at home this morning I started thinking about what I wanted for lunch. I didn’t want a salad or sandwich, and I don’t have any leftovers in the fridge so I decided to make myself a smoothie. I had a couple bananas quickly turning on the counter so I decided to use one of those. I also had a variety of fat free yogurt flavors in the fridge. So this is what I came up with. It was so delicious, very filling and under 300 calories. This would a great smoothie for breakfast or a snack as well.

By the way, I just realized, this is my 100th post!!

Banana Peach Smoothie

1 small banana
1 6 oz container fat free peach yogurt
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup ice
1 Tbsp whipped topping

Break the banana into chunks and place in a blender. Add the remaining ingredients and pulse until the ice is crushed and all ingredients are combined. Pour into a glass and top with a dollop of whipped topping if desired.

Strawberry Banana Yogurt Smoothie

When I woke up this morning I didn’t want my usual oatmeal or cereal for breakfast. Then I remembered I still had a few strawberries left in the fridge and some ripe bananas that needed using. So I came up with this. Very refreshing!

Strawberry Banana Yogurt Smoothie

3-4 strawberries, chopped
1 small, ripe banana, cut into chunks
1 6 oz container fat free strawberry banana yogurt
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup ice
1 Tbsp honey

Place strawberries, banana, yogurt, ice, and honey in a blender. Pour milk over ingredients and blend for about a minute or until all ingredients are combined.
