Mixed Berry Smoothie

smoothie-done

My oldest daughter has been on a smoothie kick lately.  If “lately” can be considered the last few years.  She loves smoothies and often makes them for herself.  (Now, if I could just convince her to wash the blender.)  Mixed berry is her most recent favorite.

Here’s what you’ll need to make your own:

smoothie-ingr

1 1/2 – 2 cups of frozen mixed berries, thawed a bit in the microwave

1/2 cup or so of vanilla yogurt

1/4 – 1/2 cup orange juice

1/4 – 1/2 cup milk (which didn’t make it in the picture, sorry!)

1 ripe banana, optional

Throw all the ingredients in the blender.  Measuring is optional.  Blend till smooth.  Top with whipped cream if you feel fancy.  Remember to wash your own blender.
