Fruit Smoothies

I had the biggest taste for a fruit smoothie this evening. The best home made smoothie I've ever made was Jewel's Banana Smoothie Mix. Just throw in a banana or two, add some milk & chop up your ice-better chop up that ice first and blend! Yummy! Jewel carries the mix in the produce section. Of course, I've never looked at the ingredients or nothing because I figured I was offsetting it with all the good stuff I was adding!

So, what I did was go look up what I thought were the easiest and best looking and probably best tasting smoothies I could find,




Island Fruit Smoothie (Recipe Courtesy of Curtis Aikens) and the Food Network


1 small banana, peeled and cut into chunks

2 tablespoons coconut milk

2 tablespoons lime juice

1/4 cup orange juice

1/4 cup pineapple juice

1/2 teaspoon ginger, grated

3 ice cubes


In a blender, blend all ingredients until smooth.



Cheers!
