Freshly squeezed orange juice, fresh mango and banana blended with organic honey-flavored yogurt fresh from the dairy farm.  Yeah, it’s what’s for dinner.  Or at least it could be, if you’re into thick, delicious healthy drinks that fill you up.  It could be dessert, too.  Or just a really groovy way to get things going in the early morning.  Really, I can’t make all the decisions around here, you’re on your own for this one.  But you do need to make this smoothie, and soon.

I’d give a recipe but I just tossed in what I had in my kitchen.  I used one whole mango, one very ripe banana (banana ripeness is important in smoothies for maximum flavor), the juice of two whole oranges and that yogurt I mentioned, scored last weekend at the farmer’s market.  You can use any yogurt you’ve got on hand, but if it’s not sweet enough for you then toss in a tablespoon or two of honey.  I prefer my smoothies without all that ice to water down the flavors, but I suppose you could toss some in if you feel you must.  Or just stick it in the freezer for twenty minutes if it’s not cold enough for you.  But can you really wait that long before all the healthy goodness starts doing its work?

Didn’t think so! ;-)
