Hello,

We buy bags of frozen fruit from Trader Joes (they have at least five different kind of fruit at any given time). Each morning one of our two boys gets to choose the day's "flavor" - including strawberry, blueberry, mango, pineapple, mixed berry, raspberry, or banana (fresh - can't get those frozen). They love trying to come up with crazy combos (I usually limit it to three fruits at a time just to keep things easy for myself). The fact that every day can be different keeps them from getting bored.

So we just mix about a cup of the "fruit du jour" plus about a cup of vanilla yogurt (Trader Joes sells big tubs) and about half a cup of orange juice in the blender. You can also sneak in Wheat Germ or unflavored fibre powder if that's of interest.

Hope that helps!

Hi,
My daughters love a smoothie with:
 lime sherbet
 frozen mango
 vanilla yogurt
 frozen pineapple
 pineapple juice - or you could use canned pineapple with juice and      add some ice
Perfect as an after school snack!
