Ingredients
1 Cup Sunny D of any flavor. Or 1 cup of orange juice.1 Cup unsweetened frozen berries.I do not thaw the berries before using. 6-8 oz. of yogurt, any flavor. 1 bananaThis recipe is easy to customize by substitution any of the above ingredients. Just keep in mind the change it may cause in the nutrition values.
Directions
Blend yogurt, juice, and banana on low speed. Add frozen fruit, and blend until smooth. Add ice cubes and blend until the smoothie is at the texture that you prefer.

Makes three 8 oz. servings or two 12 oz. servings. Nutrition values are calculated on two servings.

If making ahead, freeze rather than refrigerate to prevent ingredients from separating. Remove from freezer before bed to have a smoothie ready to go at breakfast time! Would also make good popsicles at snack time or sorbet for desert!

    I made this for myself and for my kids this morning. For the kids I did nonfat vanilla Greek yogurt, banana, pear (their request), mixed berries, and oj. They loved it. For myself I did mixed berries, the same yogurt, oj, banana, and added a tbsp of ground flaxseed. Awesome! - 2/10/11

    This looks great - love that it's "make ahead" as I've found that's the key to my staying on track each day.
    Also looks like something my kids will love! - 6/3/09

    Anything you could think of to replace the banana? I've never been a fan of bananas in smoothies but would LOVE to try this one. - 10/25/11

    This is so yummy!! I made it without the banana (they make my throat itch lol) but other than that I followed the recipe exactly, I used vaniila yogurt. Will definitely make this again!! - 7/29/11

    Can't go wrong with these for breakfast, or even a snack! I didn't use any orange juice because I didn't have any available, so it turned out thicker (more like a frozen treat, which I like). Very easy to keep frozen and use as needed, which I love. Will make again! - 5/11/11

    This was great!!! I didn't have mixed berries or a banana to use but I did have frozen mixed fruits. so my smoothie was actually a combo of strawberries, peaches, pineapple and mangoes. :-) Even the kids liked it! - 4/21/11

    I used simply orange juice with pineapple and low fat vanilla yogurt. I must say this recipe is quick and easy and the whole family will love it!!!! - 1/16/11

    I'm not a big fruit eater so this is a great way to get the good stuff in me. I use "lite" yogurt and the taste is great! - 1/13/10
