Berry banana smoothies

I make these once in a while as a snack/dessert. They are great on a hot day! It makes 2 pretty big glasses or 3 smallish ones. The measurements are pretty eyeballed but you can always add more to taste and re-blend.
Combine in a blender:
3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 1/2 frozen bananas (peel and break up when they are getting too ripe and store in a zip-loc bag)
1/3 package frozen mixed berries
2 packets splenda

Pour in soy milk or orange juice (don't need the splenda if you use OJ) to about cover the ingredients and blend until smooth. If the blender gets stuck add a little more liquid and blend again.

Using orange juice makes it a little sweeter and using soy milk makes it a little creamier.

  1. I have lots of frozen bananas in the freezer that I throw in, skins and all, when they are starting to get too ripe, and I always forget to use them up as smoothies. Thanks for sharing this! Patty
