Recipe: Healthy Smoothie



I seriously love drinking smoothies, they are delicious & great way to get your daily dose of fruit in.  As I've mentioned before I have a lot of food allergies & am allergic to most fruit, but I've come up with a smoothie that only contains ones I can have & it tastes super yummy together!

Healthy Smoothie

Ingredients:
1/4 cup orange juice, add more if too thick
6 oz. Chobani Greek Yogurt in Vanilla (or any fruit flavor will do)
3-4 frozen strawberries
4-5 chunks frozen pineapple
Handful frozen blueberries

Instructions:
-Add orange juice, yogurt, & frozen fruit to blender.
-Mix until smooth & everything is blended.
-Enjoy!

This recipe is simple & very relaxed, all the ingredients are estimated.  I sometimes add raspberries & blackberries too (a few of each).  I make my smoothie in a Magic Bullet so it basically comes down to how much I can fit in there.  You could add some banana, as well, but I find that its flavor overpowers the whole smoothie.  I really like my smoothies super thick so if you want a more liquid-y one, you just have to add more orange juice.  The great thing about this recipe is that you can play around with the recipe & find out what works for you & the blender you are using.  This tasty treat is packed with antioxidants from the berries & protein from the yogurt.  It makes a great breakfast or lunch & keeps you full for a long time.
