Smoothies!

Yesterday it was really hot when Adam got home, so I decided to make smoothies. We haven't had them for awhile and I had some really good strawberries this week. Bear in mind, these are some of the BEST strawberries I've ever had!
Here is the recipe for awesome homemade smoothies/lassies. (A lassie is the Indian/Nepali version of a smoothie. It's made with yogurt instead of ice)


Smoothie
1 cup nonfat plain yogurt
1 cup frozen pineapple
1/4 cup orange juice
8-10 juicy strawberries
sugar to taste

serves 2

A few things to note. Generally it's better to use juice concentrate or "nectar" because it has more flavor, although I used orange juice and it was great. Frozen pineapple - I buy them on sale, chop them up and freeze them in baggies of a cup each. Taste it as you go so you can adjust the amount of strawberries and sugar that you need. Last of all - Kick back and enjoy your summer!
