yip sounds good to me.............

I was wondering if anyone could share a few different smoothie recipes?
Would fruit, skim milk and ice in the blender be good or am I missing
something?

Thanks,
Wendy

There ya go. That's about it. Some people add yogurt or oat bran or
whatever they feel like. Others add powdered milk to give it a "super
milk" base. I've been making what we call "banana fluff" all my life.
Banana, little touch of cinnamon and nutmeg, milk, and ice. Sometimes I put
in sweetener, other times not. You can put in a small dash of vanilla or a
short squeeze of lite Hershey's chocolate syrup. It's a great way to turn a
cup or a half-cup of milk into a nice long, tall drink.

If you have room in your freezer cut up some bananas and strawberries and
store them.  Use these instead of ice.

Some of our breakfast replacement therapy smoothies:

A quick banana...

2 bananas
1 pint skimmed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla essence

Chuck in the blender: divide between 2 tall glasses...

The Pink One:

1 ripe mango
100g ripe strawberries
OJ - enough!

Chuck the fruit in the blender and just barely cover with juice: whizz.
 Add more juice if it's a bit thick.

The Chocolate One!

3 large bananas
1 tub 0% fat Greek Yoghurt
2 tablespoons Cadbury's Drinking Chocolate
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
1 and a half pints skimmed milk

Blend to a smooth cream, and enjoy!

I never bother with ice.  All the above can be poured as they are into
ice lolly moulds and frozen: allow about half a point per frozen lolly.

works nice, if you want put in some sweetener, Lee

I do freeze & slice bananas so they are
always available -

1 banana (frozen/sliced)
1 cup skim milk
1 ts. vanilla extract
1 TB peanut butter (any kind will do, but if it's
chunky, it's hard to drink through a straw)

Blend
Enjoy!
