It’s Time for another #RecipeRedux – If you don’t remember, this is the healthy cooking challenge I’m taking part in. This month, we’re not cooking at all… we’re drinking!

Especially when it is hot out, we may not feel like eating much… this is why I love my healthy and delicious banana split smoothie recipe! (Talk about #MeFirst, huh?)

Prep Time:

Makes 2 Servings

Ingredients:

  • ½ cup pineapple (fresh, frozen, or canned)
  • ½ cup of strawberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 ripe banana, sliced
  • 1 container of Greek-style yogurt, fat-free or low-fat (8oz)
  • ½ cup fat-free milk
  • 1 tablespoon chocolate sauce
  • 1 cup ice

Place all ingredients in a blender and mix well.

Variations:

  • Non-Dairy Option: use soymilk and soy yogurt.

Try this the next time you and your family are in the mood for a cool treat. This “banana split” recipe is an easy and delicious way for your family to prepare a healthy meal or snack together. Made with nutritious fruits and low-fat dairy, it’s a smart choice for a healthy breakfast or on-the-go in the hot summer.

    Friends or perhaps an artist shouldn’t get his money until his boss gets his.
