We’ve been on a real health kick lately since I started the Nutrisystem plan- we’ve started working out, eating better, and drinking lots of smoothies. There’s a place near us that has AMAZING smoothies, but I’m sure they’re loaded with sugar- plus they’re like $5 each. So, we’ve been making most of our smoothies at home!
Smoothies are fun to make because you can personalize them in several ways- what fruits {or even veggies} you include, the consistency, and most importantly the amount of sugar in it. We’ve found a lot of great combinations, but we’ve really been on an orange juice & apple kick this week.
Here’s the recipe {named by Shane- bonus points if you get the reference}:
Ingredients
- 18 oz 100% Florida Orange Juice
- 1 1/4 cups fat-free milk
- 1 1/4 cups water
- 3 tbsp sugar or sugar substitute
- A whole lot of ice {about 25 pieces}
- 1 medium apple, cored & diced
Directions
- Place all ingredients in a blender and blend!
————————————
I get the feeling we’re going to be enjoying these a lot in the upcoming months as it gets warmer & warmer outside!

Looks awesome! You’re right, too, about the smoothie places. I always want to get one and I’m always disappointed because they’re so SWEET.
All you need is that yummy fruit and they’re awesome!
