After school, my kids are always hungry for a snack.  I try to make them a snack that will hold them over until dinner.    Usually, this will consist of some fruit or maybe some crackers and cheese.  A favorite of theirs is Yogurt Fruit Smoothies.  This fills them up and is not only great after school but great in the morning as well.

Yogurt Fruit Smoothie

Ingredients:

2 Cups of Yogurt(your favorite kind)

1 Banana

1 Cup of Fresh or Frozen Strawberries(sliced)

1/4 Cup of Fresh or Frozen Blueberries

1 Tbs. Granulated Sugar

1/4 Cup Milk

1 Cup Ice Cubes

Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.  That is it! The best part about this recipe is that you can add any additional fruits that you like or take out any fruits you don’t like. We have tried several different flavor combinations and we have even added green tea just for an extra boost.
