Easy, healthy & delicious berry smoothie

I came up with this recipe on one of these days where I felt I needed something fast, easy and healthy.

It makes one serving, as pictured, and I really like it..

Ingredients

* 1/2 cup cranberry juice (100% juice)

* 1/2 cup Greek vanilla yogurt

* 1/2 cup strawberries (I used fresh)

* 1/3 cup raspberries (I used frozen)

Put it all in the blender & blend till smooth.

Enjoy!

Fruity Shake Recipe

This is my favorite way to add something healthy to our lunches! And, it is super easy (and quick) to make this fruity shake.

I usually start with fruits, like bananas, strawberries, blueberries, whatever I have on hand. Frozen berries work really well, too. Then I add milk, and sometimes yogurt. Turn the blender on for a minute or so, and you're done. I usually take a spoon to see if I like the taste. Sometimes I add some more of an ingredient.

My kids love this, and so do I, and I know I am feeding them fruits, milk and yogurt at the same time. Bonus: works great for slow eaters too!

Pineapple Orange Smoothie

I really enjoy this drink, it's so simple, I just made it up last week, but am sure this is going to be one of my summer favorites this year. My kids like it, too! Can you tell I am ready for a change of seasons??

INGREDIENTS

• 20 oz can of pineapple (in 100% juice)
• 2 cups of ice cubes
• 2 cups of orange juice

Put all ingredients in the blender.

Cover and process for 15 seconds or until smooth.

Enjoy!

(Variation: you could add a banana too, for extra vitamins, flavor and sweetness...)
