Strawberry-Banana Yogurt Smoothie

TrebleClef's Note:

This can easily be adapted to whatever you have on hand. Substitute milk for juice, or peaches and raspberries for the strawberries and bananas. I purposly don't add sweeteners, because the juice is naturally sweet, but also because I like the tartness of the fruit. Yummy for those of you who need energy in the morning, but hate eating breakfast (like me!).

I don't like my smoothies overly sweet, and this one was perfect. I used plain nonfat yogurt, which isn't sweetened, and frozen berries, which helped thicken it a bit. Cranberry juice for the juice. Will be making this again! Made for Fall 2012 PAC game.

Fabulous smoothie recipe! I especially loved the organe juice addition, it made the smoothie so much better than the ordinary. Yum!
