Blueberry Yogurt Smoothie

Summer is at last going full speed ahead here, after a poor start set apart by electrical storms and cool evenings. This destroyed my vegetable patio nursery, which is as yet attempting to get itself, however I need to say, I adored the impermanent stay from the warmth of our summers. That warmth has now arrived, which means I'm not going out 'til September.

I've truly been appreciating plain, unflavored yogurt of late and have started purchasing two huge containers of the stuff each time I go to the supermarket. I made my hand crafted farm dressing a week ago, substituting yogurt for harsh cream (simply because I'd neglected to purchase the sharp cream) and I was charmingly amazed at how delectable it was. At that point I got to be fixated on my Yogurt Cream, which I've fundamentally slathered over everything in my home that will stop—blueberries, strawberries, grapes, and yes, even Marlboro Man… yet that is another story for some other time. My grandma understands this site.

Since it's been so hot, I've been making smoothies utilizing a plain yogurt and milk base. They're tasty. Rich. Sound. Thus considerably more nutritious than Mountain Dew, which here and there deadheads in and sets up itself as my punks' default summer drink in the event that I don't remain at the entryway and beat it away. I wasn't certain I'd have the capacity to persuade my semi-particular eaters to grasp something with a yogurt base, however here's the thing: I don't let them know. With regards to getting your children to eat sound nourishments, genuineness doesn't generally work.

Have some milk nearby to get the smoothie to the consistency you wish. If you like your smoothie very thick, you can leave out the milk.

Also have a little honey or fruit juice for sweetness. I like honey because it adds only sweetness without competing with the purity of the fruit you chose. I’m kind of a one-fruit smoothie girl. Actually, I’m not. I just made that up. I also prefer honey to fruit juice because it doesn’t thin the smoothie like juice does.

 Also: Ice. Ice makes it yummy and more like a milkshake.

This is a blender. Aren’t you glad you have me here to explain these things.

Throw everything into the blender:

Yogurt…

Equal parts fruit…

And honey to taste.

 
Now blend ’til smooth:

Then give it a quick taste and make sure it’s sweet enough for you. Sometimes, depending on the fruit, you don’t need to add much sweetness.

And that’s it!

I like to serve smoothies in fun glasses. Makes me feel special. I need all the help I can get.

Know what else makes me feel special? This smoothie.

Oh, baby. Will you take a look at this? What good things must this deep, dark hue of violet do to our bodies?

Now, on my honor, I did not Photoshop the color of this smoothie. It’s all natural, no joke.

I know it’s sad that I have to even point that out, but that’s the world we live in today. One can ever know what’s been Photoshopped and what hasn’t. Especially on this site.

 Now, I happen to like the seeds of blueberries and strawberries; they don’t bother me at all, and I actually feel healthier when I gobble them up. But if you’re averse to seeds, try pineapple, banana, melon…

Oooh, yum. A honeydew melon smoothie. That’s next on my list.

Make a smoothie today! Your body will thank you. I promise.
