Ingredients
1 medium banana, peeled
1 cup fresh peaches or strawberries, washed and cut into chunks
1 (8 ounce) container low-fat vanilla yogurt
1/2 cup 100% fruit juice
Directions
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water before beginning.
Peel the banana and break it into chunks. Wash the peaches or strawberries, then cut them into bite-sized pieces, removing any pits or stems.
Add the banana chunks, cut fruit, low-fat vanilla yogurt, and 100% fruit juice to a blender.
Blend on high speed for 1 to 2 minutes until the mixture is smooth and creamy, with no visible chunks remaining.
Divide the smoothie equally between 2 glasses.
Serve immediately while still cold and frothy for the best flavor and texture.
Comments
The ingredients are grocery-store basics available everywhere in Charlotte, and at four simple items the cost per serving runs about $1.50-$2.00, driven mainly by peach pricing depending on season. The stated 5-minute time is honest—just blending, no real prep work. This is genuinely fuss-free and works well for breakfast or a quick lunch, though it's best consumed immediately and doesn't reheat well; peaches are peak North Carolina summer fruit, making this especially economical June through August.
