This healthy and tasty treat carried us through the long, hot days of summer 2011. I don’t follow any recipes. I just try to stay stocked up on frozen fruits, yogurt, and 100% pineapple juice concentrate. Then I make it up as I go. A daily dose of this fends off those ice cream cravings!
To try one of our favorites, mix the following in a blender:
2 cups of frozen strawberries
2 cups of frozen blueberries
8 ounces of vanilla or plain yogurt
1/2 container of frozen 100% pineapple juice concentrate
2 cups of water
Blend this mixture, then add ice until it is the consistency you desire (about 2 cups).
Serve, and enjoy! What am I watching for on Craigslist? A Vitamix blender!

I found one on Craigslist for $80 and we are loving it! It’s old school Vitamix, but still works great. So happy to have it. I’m sure you are enjoying yours, too.
