Lots of Fruit Smoothie
All begin with a base of:
1?2 c. plain, vanilla, or strawberry yogurt
1?4-1/2 c. milk then perhaps some fruit juice, usually orange or Dole specialty juices, 1?4-1/2c.
Followed by fruit in many varying combinations, always including either banana or melon.
1 banana
Handful frozen or fresh strawberries or blueberries
one 4-5″ wide slice out of a cantaloupe or honeydew melon
1 kiwi
Then I’d blend it till I was pleased with the result. I found that melon added a lot of sweetness and made a nice background taste. I don’t always use juice when I use the melon. We especially liked melon and blueberries, bananas and strawberries.

Here is a cool tip. Use your ice cube tray to make frozen juice cubes to use in your next yogurt smoothie recipe.
And also you can peel a banana and cut it into four or five pieces and place them into a freezer bag and store in the freezer to always have a smoothie ingredient on hand.
Remember to always add liquid ingredients first then yogurt and fruit and powders or supplements and ice last and you will have consistently great smoothies!

I just bought one of those bullet blenders, so I'm just getting into smoothies. My first creation is similar to yours. I will use pom juice next time, but all I had on hand was cranberry juice. I used that with blueberries, blackberries, strawberries, raspberries (all frozen) and nonfat yogurt. I was astounded at how much liquid I had to keep adding as it turned out like a milkshake until I added enough. Ummmmm - it IS SO TASTY!!!
Apple juice instead of pomegranate ...
Add wheat germ and/or flax seed (a teaspoon or so - great health benefits!) ...
Sesame seeds, sunflower seed nutmeats, or finely chopped walnuts ...
(OK, sometimes my smoothies get lumpy!)
Banana ...
Frozen peaches ...
I've thrown dozens of things in there. The only time my kids and I didn't like it was when I tried adding soymilk.
Here's an interesting one for you!!
