NutritionBabes Strawberry Smoothie

This recipe has been a favorite of mine for a few years.  It is simple, and much lower in sugar than traditional smoothie recipes.  It makes a great 100 calorie afternoon snack or a quick breakfast paired with a hard-boiled egg, low fat cheese stick or one of our whole grain muffins. Play with the fruit choices to find your favorite blend.

1/4 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt 

1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk

1 cup frozen whole strawberries, unsweetened (or any frozen fruit where the serving equals approx 50 calories)

1 packet Truvia

a few ice cubes, depending on your blender and how icy you like your smoothie

Add all ingredients to blender and process until smooth.
