Banana Smoothie

I've dropped the ball on the fitness and healthy eating recently and it's time to get back on that horse.  There is no better way to jump start your day then with a smoothie.  This recipe makes 2 adult servings. 
  • 3 frozen bananas, first slice the banana in 1 inch chunks and place in a plastic container in your freezer overnight.
  • 6 oz container of Greek yogurt, vanilla or honey flavored.
  • 1 cup pureed peaches, I had 2 containers of baby food peaches that I am trying to use instead of throwing away but you could use any fruit in it's place.
  • 1/4 cup oatmeal
  • 1 Tbs. honey
  • 1/2 cup milk
Place all the items in the blender and process until smooth.  You may have to add more milk or water until it reaches it's desired thickness.

Can you use any kind of yogurt instead of Greek? This looks good.

Oh yeah! You can totally use any kind of yogurt. I personally prefer Greek because it's double the protein of normal yogurt and I don't eat a lot of meat.
