Grab & Go Smoothie Recipe

Have left over browning fruit? Don't throw it out, instead take it and remix it in to a fast, healthy snack.
As we all know produce is expensive and it would be a shame to let it go to waste. Here I had leftover fruit salad, with strawberries, mango's, pineapples, bananas. Its was delicious but its started to brown and become unsightly but I didn't want to just toss it. Light Bulb! Frozen smoothie cubes. What are those you ask, well just read on...
 
Here's what you'll need:
  • Fruit of your choice, chopped and ready to blend - Perfect for using up what ever you have laying around that's the glory of this recipe.
  • Milk of your choice, soy, almond, etc.-I used two percent.
Add ingredients to blender and puree. Because the fruit amount will differ, approximate a three to one ratio of fruit to milk.
Pour into clean ice cubes trays, cover, and let freeze.
Once frozen remove from trays and seal in a freezer bag until ready to use.
Blending the smoothies are totally up to personal preference or whatever you have laying around. Here are some possibilities that I like to use.
