 Recipe: Fruit Smoothie
Cool and refreshing, smoothies are a delicious and nutritious way to quench
your thirst and even satisfy a minor hunger.
| Yield |
1 smoothie |
| Time |
5 minutes |
| Tools |
- Blender or food processor
|
| Ingredients |
- 1½ c frozen fruit
OR
1 c fresh fruit + 3 ice cubes - ¾ - 1 c liquid
- Additions (optional)
|
| Directions |
Place all of the ingredients in the blender or food processor and process until there are no visible chunks of fruit. If smoothie is too thick, add more liquid. Too thin, add more fruit. |
| Notes |
For ideas on which fruits, liquids, and additions to use, see my page on smoothie ideas. If you use frozen fruit, be aware that the first minute or so of blending will be *very* loud, so if you have neighbors or sleeping kids, don't make smoothies too early in the morning. |
