Frozen Fruit Smoothie
These healthy yogurt based smoothies are a go to quick meal at my house. This strawberry smoothie with hints of citrus is one of our favorites. If you have a blender, you have all the tools you need to make this easy recipe. The ingredients are simple and include orange creme yogurt, strawberries, ice, lemon juice and milk. You can even substitute the milk out for water if you prefer.
How to Make a Strawberry Smoothie
This is why I love to make smoothies, all you have to do is put all the ingredients in a blender and process until smooth. That’s it. You might have to make minor adjustments to accommodate the thickness of the frozen smoothie.
This is a thick smoothie, so feel free to add more milk or water to make it thinner if necessary. Also because it is so thick, some blenders may have hard time, if this is the case try leaving out the ice and/or adding some liquid. I use a BlendTec Blender, which works great and can handle almost everything I throw at it. For a less expensive option, I highly recommend this KitchenAid Blender.
Dairy Free Smoothie Option
Sometimes I like to make a dairy-free fruit smoothie, so I use a coconut based yogurt and orange juice or water instead of milk.
Different Fruit Flavor Options
I have also made this with blueberries and vanilla yogurt rather than strawberries and orange yogurt. Feel free to mix and match based on your tastes or what you have on hand.
Fresh Fruit Smoothie Option
Fresh fruit will work well too, but it won’t be quite as thick.
