Smoothies | Summertime

It’s summer!! 🙂 Nothing goes better with summer than smoothies…. well actually icecream goes better but smoothies are the next best thing! 😉
If they are made right, smoothies are not only tasty but also an extremely good way to get a couple servings of fruit in. This morning I came up with the perfect mix!! A pretty simple combination of strawberries, peaches, and bananas but I added a punch of flavor with pineapple concentrate. 🙂 Add a bit of organic cream top yogurt and a splash of vanilla for a deliciously creamy texture… almost taste like a milkshake! OK, so this recipe isn’t rocket science BUT it’s good! What’s your favorite smoothie combination?

Yields: 1 smoothie
