It's Smoothie Time!

Over the past several weeks, a thin layer of yellow pollen now covers everything. Spring is here and it is only March. Today the high was in the low 80s. Well, I think that winter is over. Time to put up the jackets and sweaters and find the shorts and flipflops. With this change in temperture, has come the much loved smoothie back to our house. It makes a great refreshing afternoon snack and has been a favorite in our home for years. I make it different each time depending on the fruit that I have available. Here is the basic reciepe but feel free to make it your own.

Fruit Smoothie

Greek yogart
Honey
1/2- 1 cup juice
Frozen fruit (pinapple, blueberrries, strawberries, kiwi, peaches-- these are our favorites)
Bee pollen (optional)

The key is having frozen fruit. This gives the smoothie a great slushy consistancy without adding ice.
