Daily Smoothie

If I'm not having oatmeal you can bet your bottom dollar that I'm having this smoothie. In fact, we (the munchkins and I) probably have this 4 of 7 days a week!

Mango Strawberry Smoothie

1 cup frozen Mangos
8 frozen strawberries
1 whole banana
1/2 cup fat free plain greek yogurt
1 cup skim milk
1 cup baby spinach (optional - the color doesn't go over well with the Munchkins, but the taste doesn't change!)

Put everything in blend and blend until smooth. It makes us 2 tall glasses and a little bit leftover for the littlest munchkin, who eats his from a spoon.

Oh and FYI... a good blender is pretty much imperative for smoothie making. I had been using a blender I had for a few years now and it died from daily use. I decided to just cheap out and go get a blender that was on sale for $20. I literally made 2 smoothies with it before it died. Yes it might have been a dud. But I finally decided to 'invest' in a good blender. Holy smokes it's worth every penny. I got the Ninja....
