Smoothie Recipes
Try this refreshing smoothie:
Sip your way to a healthier breakfast by blending your produce each morning. These smoothie recipes will get your day started off right by packing in nutrient-rich fruit and vegetables, plus protein-filled yogurt and milk for an energy boost that will keep you going until lunch. And unlike what you might get from store-bought options, they prioritize actual produce instead of the juices, sorbets, and sweeteners that can add tons of sugar to your cup.
In blender, puree 2 cups fresh summer fruit (blackberries, raspberries, hulled strawberries, chopped peaches, and/or nectarines), chilled, with 1/2 cup plain yogurt and 1/4 cup milk (dairy or nondairy), scraping down sides as necessary. If desired, make multiple batches and layer two flavors in each glass.

1 c. frozen canned pineapple chunks
