hi there! as my new blog showed (before it got all messed up...) that people have lots of smoothies during the summer, so I decided to post some recipes for smoothies that are healthy but delicious at the same time!




Green Tropics Smoothie

I love mango in a smoothie and adding pineapple makes for one of my favorite flavor combos. So it tastes good, but adding spinach makes it a green smoothie and that makes it healthier.

Ingredients:

2 cups of spinach
1 mango
1 banana
1 cup pineapple chunks
1 cup water
Serves 2, but you won’t be surprised if you finish it by yourself.

Classic Blueberry Smoothie

1 pint fresh blueberries or 2 cups (10 oz.) frozen blueberries, slightly thawed
1 cup pineapple, orange and strawberry juice blend or pineapple-orange juice
1 container (8 oz.) low fat vanilla yogurt
2 teaspoons sugar

Directions:

In the container of an electric blender, combine blueberries, juice, yogurt and sugar. Blend until smooth, about 1 minute. Serve immediately in tall glasses. Garnish with blueberry skewers spiraled with thin strips of orange peel, if desired. Yields 2 portions.
