You can make fruit smoothies a million different ways. Sometimes I use yogurt. Sometime I don't. Sometimes I use ice, sometimes, just the frozen fruit. I always save the juice from canned pineapple and canned peaches in a container in the freezer for smoothies later. Here is a typical fruit smoothie that I make.
1 cup fruit juice (I like grape and pineapple the best.)
1/2 container of yogurt, any fruit flavor
1 capfull of lime juice
1 T sugar (totally optional)
1/2 bananna
3 or so cups of fruit
pineapple, canned or fresh
peaches, canned, fresh or frozen
strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, fresh or frozen
In a high speed blender, blend juice, yogurt, lime juice and banana first. Then add fresh or canned fruit and blend. Last add frozen fruit. You may need to add some water if the mixture is too thick. You can add shaved ice if you like. This amount makes 2 large smoothies. Trying to make 4 smoothies at one time in my blender is too much for the machine. I just do this twice.
This blog is a place for me to share pictures, tell stories and write about our family, our farm in Dover, Arkansas, our Faith in Jesus Christ , and our love for nature, animals and people. I hope it often makes you laugh, sometimes causes you to think, and sincerely gives you insight into who we are as we travel this amazing journey.
