Easy Berry Smoothie for Camping

Starting with frozen berries, this summer time delight is a treat!

It's those lazy, hazy summer days in Iowa... You know, the kind where everyone is craving ice cream, iced tea, lemonade and such.  I've been longing for something with berries in it and came up with this simple recipe that can be made when camping.  You don't need ice.  Just start with a bag of frozen berries!  I used an Aldi brand mix of raspberries, strawberries, blackberries, and blueberries, along with some low sugar yogurt and a bit of G2 (low calorie) Gatorade.  The result was a tasty antioxidant and protein packed treat.  Enjoy!



No pretty fufu glass here... I was in a hurry to drink it!



VT's Berry Yogurt Camping Smoothie

1.5 cups of frozen mixed berries
1 small container of low sugar flavored blueberry yogurt
3/4 cups fruit punch flavored Gatorade  G2 (or Aldi N2 equivalent)
2 Tablespoons half 'n' half

Blend all together using an immersion blender (or an upright blender).  Serve at once while it is still cold.  The half 'n' half is optional but gives the drink a wonderful texture, color, and taste.  Enjoy!
