  1. This is a very refreshing, fruity smoothie with a lovely consistency. Mine came out very thick and yummy. But somehow there was something missing for me tastewise -maybe some cinnamon or a little maple syrup...This is a great base for experimenting and adding different things, though. Thanks for sharing this wonderful treat with us, Mandy! Made and reviewed for June Bevy Tag 09.
     
  2. 5 Stars, the orange juice is the perfect counterpoint to the blueberries and the blueberries-n-cream low-fat Green's Ice Cream I used, it sets the taste. I used 1/4 cup additional blueberries to offset the "cream" in the ice cream I had to buy (out of season). Loved it, this ice cream lover claims this as one of her favorite desserts! Made for Zaar Stars Tag.
     
  3. A flavoursome smoothie which I made with Greek yoghurt - so not frozen yoghurt - as that's what I always buy and it enables me to make smoothies the night before, put them in a Tupperware container to enjoy as an in-the-car-on-the-run breakfast. I made my smoothie with a cup of fresh blueberries and about 1/4 cup of sunflower seeds, a pretty standard ingredient in most smoothies I make. Even after blending, there's still a bit of crunch. I also added a pinch of cinnamon. For my taste, this didn't need extra sweetness, but those with a sweeter tooth may well want to taste test it and add a bit of honey if they want their smoothie a tad sweeter. Made for the Aussie Forum's MAKE MY RECIPE tag game. Thanks for sharing this recipe, Mandy!
     
  4. Fantastic! I used strawberry yogurt and then thinned it out a bit with milk. My blueberries were frozen, so my smoothie turned into a nice frosty drink. Will definitely make this again. Thanks!
     
  5. The kids liked this one. I used vanilla yogurt and a combo of blueberries and raspberries. They were gone in no time. Glad there is no extra added sugar, doesn't need it! Thanks, Mandy. Made for my Babes for ZWT4.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Melbourne I live on a 5 acre property in the Dandenong Ranges Victoria, Australia, having moved from the burbs when I became pregnant with my now 15 year old daughter Alyssa. Once my daughter was born I became a stay at home mum as I couldn't bear the thought of putting her in daycare. She is the light of my life, I never imagined myself as a mum when younger but now wouldn't have it any other way. Alyssa was made a big sister on the 19th April 2010 when our cheeky little boy Blake was born. I love cooking and experimenting with new recipes so quickly become addicted to Zaar as it was previously known & still use it regularly. In addition to being my kids taxi :lol: I also spend my time, reading, gardening and of course shopping. I'm lucky enough that we have the space & so love growing our own fruits, vegies & herbs, this also means we have plenty of room for animals & at the moment have 2 dogs, Max, a Jackshund who's 6, Fletcher, a Kelpie who's 4, 6 cats Snowpea, Fergus, Ginger, Tango, Annie & Cookie, 4 chooks & 2 Ducks. As well as our pets, we also have a lot of native animals around our area, we have kangaroos, wombats, echidna's, possums as well as rosella's, galah's & Cockatoo's hence the name of where I live..
