Note about making smoothies ...
| Mon, 06-18-2007 - 2:45pm |
So this Sunday I went to make my green tea smoothie and I decided to try something different. Instead of using my normal frozen yogurt I buy in the ice cream department, I froze a little container of vanilla yogurt (I don't really like eating the vanilla ones that come in my pack).
Then I used Crystal Light instead of juice and added some fruit. I ended up with a smoothie that was under 80 calories, and it still tasted great!
Here's the comparison for the regular frozen yogurt and the frozen Vanilla yogurt container:
