B. and Dan love biking, and after a workout they love the refreshment of a chilled fruit smoothie. Use your blender or food processor, and add brewer's yeast or protein powder if you want. It's a healthy drink any time of day. Freezing the fruit first makes the shake thicker.

Categories     Smoothies

Time 5m

Yield 2 large glasses

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 cups frozen mixed field berries
1 banana
1 cup vanilla frozen yogurt
1 cup milk
6 ice cubes (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in a blender.

Tips:

  • Prep your berries: Before making the smoothie, wash and dry the berries to remove any dirt or debris. If using frozen berries, thaw them slightly so they blend more easily.
  • Use a variety of berries: To create a smoothie with a complex flavor and nutritional profile, use a combination of different types of berries. Some popular choices include strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries.
  • Add other fruits and vegetables: For an even more nutritious and flavorful smoothie, add other fruits and vegetables, such as bananas, spinach, kale, or avocado.
  • Use a good quality yogurt: Choose a yogurt that is plain, unsweetened, and has a high protein content. Avoid yogurts that are flavored or sweetened with added sugars.
  • Add a liquid base: To make the smoothie blendable, add a liquid base such as milk, almond milk, or coconut milk. You can also use water, but it will result in a thinner smoothie.
  • Add healthy fats: For a more satisfying and nutritious smoothie, add a source of healthy fats, such as chia seeds, flaxseeds, or avocado.
  • Sweeten naturally: If you find your smoothie too tart, sweeten it naturally with honey, maple syrup, or a few dates.
  • Adjust the consistency: The consistency of your smoothie can be adjusted by adding more or less liquid. If you want a thicker smoothie, add less liquid. If you want a thinner smoothie, add more liquid.
  • Blend until smooth: Blend the smoothie on high speed until it is smooth and creamy. If you have a high-powered blender, you can blend the smoothie for a shorter amount of time.
