The Knucker Hatch Fruit Smoothie

I thought I'd shake it up a bit on the blog and offer up a secret family recipe that is perfect for any time of the day during the hot summer. Ken and I have been trying to perfect smoothies for awhile, and about six months ago we pulled a smoothie concoction together that has stuck ever since. I drink this stuff for breakfast, or offer it with dinner sometimes. It's down right good and good for you!

The Knucker Hatch Smoothie

2 Red Label Yoplait Yogurts (any combo of two flavors...you can't go wrong)
1 Cup of Juice (orange juice,or Punch flavored Juicy Juice)
1 Cup of Milk (whole or 2%)
3 Cups of FROZEN fruit (Strawberries, Peaches, Pineapples, Melon, Berries)
2 Tablespoons of Sugar (optional)

Set blender to "Grate" for about 30 seconds and then to "Smoothie" until at desired consistency.

Serves 4 parched family members.

This recipe is so easy, and gives you a giant boost of vitamins (especially Vitamin C). It has been a staple for me while nursing Faith.
