Strawberries - you can use fresh or frozen.

Peaches - use canned peach slices in natural juice, fresh peaches, or frozen peaches. 

Banana - use a soft ripe banana to give the smoothie a natural sweetness.

Yogurt - We used our homemade yogurt, but you can use plain Greek yogurt or other flavored yogurts like vanilla, strawberry, peach, or banana. 

To make it dairy-free or vegan, use plant-based yogurt. If you don't like yogurt, you can use dairy milk, almond milk, or other plant-based milk.

All you need to do is put the fruit and yogurt into the blender jug, seal and process until the fruit is smooth.

🥗 Serving Suggestions

• They are great as a quick healthy after-school or work snack.
• In the summertime, freeze smoothies in small leakproof drink containers, use them as ice bricks to keep lunches cold, then enjoy a cool healthy drink with lunch.

🍲 Meal Prepping

Create serving-size packs of prepared fruit and place them into freezer-safe bags or containers and freeze.

When ready to make the smoothie remove a bag from the freezer, place the frozen ingredients into a blender with ½ cup of yogurt, and blend until smooth. Because of the frozen fruit, the smoothie will be extra thick.

If you don't like your smoothies thick, let them stand for 5 - 10 minutes to defrost. Or, blend in some water or more yogurt to get the consistency you like.

🌡️ Storage

• Smoothies are best consumed soon after making, but they can be stored in the fridge for one to two days. 

• Some fruits like apples and bananas tend to oxidize when left for some time and can turn the drink a brownish color.

• The taste may also change slightly depending on how long it's been in the fridge.

• Smoothies or smoothie fruit packs can be frozen for up to three months.

To freeze prepared smoothies - make the smoothies and pour them into individual freezer-safe containers or bottles with lids. Leave about 5 cm (1 inch) clear from the top, which will allow for expansion.
