Tri Color Breakfast Parfait Smoothie

Submitted by Baby Kato

"This quick and easy to make smoothie is very refreshing and makes a great morning treat, it's not overly sweet and is creamy, tart and tangy. What a great way to get our daily intake of fruit. Your family will feel extra special. Best of all your children will never guess how many fruit are in this tasty smoothie. I would recommend tasting the smoothie before adding the strawberries to see if more honey is needed."

Very, very nice smoothie! Loved the combo of fruits, but did leave out a few of the other ingredients ~ I omitted the ice cubes (what with all the frozen fruits) as well as the whipped cream & the lemon zest. A winner of a smoothie, for sure! Thanks for sharing it! [Made & reviewed in Newest Zaar recipe tag]
