Smoothies

One thing I love to have in the spring and summer is smoothies! I have a basic recipe I use for most that I make. For every cup of milk, I add 3 Tbs. sugar and then about 1.5 cups of fruit. If I am using fresh fruit I sometimes add some ice-cubes, but I would rather use fresh fruit, then add some frozen fruit for the ice-cube effect. I found some milk the other day that had probiotics in it, so I didn't have to feel so bad that I wasn't using yogurt. This one had a cup of fresh strawberries and 1/2 cup of frozen peaches... It was a really good combo!
