I was in the mood for something tropical but nutritious one day and had one can of Ensure on hand. Having tried ice cream shakes made with chocolate Ensure, I gave it a try. It's yummy and easily modified!
Directions:
1
Put the ice in the blender.
2
Add fruit, yogurt, and Ensure.
3
Blend.
4
Top with Whipped Cream, cherries and nuts (optional).
5
Enjoy!
6
**Refreezing the blended mixture for 2-4 hours makes a nice "ice cream" as well. Top with chocolate syrup, whipped cream, cherries and nuts for a banana split sundae.
7
**Add a shot of espresso to the smoothie for a Starbuck's Vivanno-like treat.
