Blueberry Smoothie

Packed with antioxidants and vitamin C power, this cool treat disproves the maxim, “If it tastes good, it can’t be good for you.”

1 pint fresh blueberries or 2 cups (10 oz.) frozen blueberries, slightly thawed
1 cup pineapple, orange and strawberry juice blend or pineapple-orange juice
1 container (8 oz.) nonfat vanilla yogurt
2 tsp. splenda
** Add 1 scoop of unflavored Protein Powder

In the container of an electric blender, combine blueberries, juice, yogurt, protein, and splenda. Blend until smooth, about 1 minute. Serve immediately in tall glasses. Garnish with blueberry skewers spiraled with thin strips of orange peel, if desired. Yields 2 portions.
