Smoothies! Yes, I know I could have a smoothie anytime I wanted, but it just seems like a summer thing to me. Here's our favourite classic smoothie recipe, using some frozen fruit for convenience, a good creamy texture and a nice degree of coldness without watering it down with lots of ice.
Makes 2 large servings.
Into a blender place in this order: the juice of 1 or 2 oranges, 1 cup low fat or non fat plain yogurt, a squeeze of honey or other sweetener (optional), 2 small or 1 large banana, 1/2 to 1 cup each of frozen strawberries and blueberries (I freeze my own when the organic local ones are in season) and 6 ice cubes. Put on the lid. Whizz. Drink. Yum.
