Mixed Fruit Smoothie


We are such a smoothie house.  My kid's friends come over and ask me what kind of smoothie I'm going to make.  Sometimes we use a recipe, but most of the time we just make them up!

My husband bought me a Vita~Mix blender a few years ago.  This was the first recipe we tried from cookbook that came with it.  The kids love it and it's really easy.  I usually have all the ingredients on hand, so we make it pretty often.  I have no problem making this for them whenever they want.  Cameron actually makes it most of the time.  The girls love it because it's pink!

1 cup frozen strawberries
2 bananas
1 orange
1/2 cup frozen peaches
1 cup vanilla or plain yogurt
1/2 cup ice cubes

Place all ingredients in blender and blend until smooth, about 1 minute.  Serve immediately.

*You can add a little honey or sugar if you would like it a little sweeter.  I used to...now I just leave it out.
