Smoothies

With winter approaching, I find myself in the freezer section at the grocery store a lot.  When fresh raspberries and peaches are hard to find, frozen bags of this fruit is the next best thing.

And what is the best thing to do with frozen fruit?  Smoothies!

Today, we made smoothies using frozen blueberries, frozen peaches, frozen raspberries, strawberry kefir, orange juice, and raspberry jam. 

Simply add all the ingredients into a blender and mix.  Use your judgement on how much of each thing you want to add.  Also, note that it is very possible that you will need to add water to help get the mix moving around in the blender.

This is a great activity for the kids, I should add.  They have fun helping add the items into the blender, and they also can get a sense of how adding new ingredients can help change the taste of the smoothie.

This is a great way for you to get all the health benefits of fruits and berries in the winter months!

Smacznego!
