Anytime Smoothie

Here is a yummy snack to feel good about.

This great-tasting pick-me-up is packed with vitamins and tastes as rich as a milk shake. Blend one fruit or several with frozen yogurt. Don't forget the orange juice and banana; they add extra sweetness.

Morning Energizer Smoothie

MAKES 3 TO 4 SERVINGS

PREP: 10 MIN.

As bananas ripen and brown, they actually become sweeter. Instead of throwing them away, slice and place in a zip-top plastic freezer bag. Simply toss the frozen slices directly into the blender.

1 cup vanilla frozen yogurt

¾ cup orange juice

¾ cup fresh pineapple chunks

¾ cup sliced fresh strawberries

¾ cup fresh raspberries

1 large banana, sliced

1. Process all ingredients in a blender until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides as needed. Serve immediately. WENDY BRAKE
