- 1 1/4 cups fat-free chocolate milk
- 1 cup frozen mixed berries blackberries, blueberries, and raspberries with no sugar added
- 1 container fat-free mixed berry Greek yogurt 5.3 ounces
Instructions

Notes
- Don’t throw out ripe fruit! Think berries and bananas! Peel bananas and freeze them in chunks. Freeze clean, dry, fresh berries on a tray. When frozen, use it in a smoothie or store in a freezer container.
- Need to make this lactose free? Substitute with lactose-free milk. It has the same 13 essential nutrients but without the lactose. Many people can tolerate Greek-style yogurt because it has less lactose, and its live and active cultures make it easier to digest. Of course, you can purchase lactose-free Greek yogurt, too.
- Mix and match fruits with flavored milks and yogurts for fun new smoothie flavors!
- Hard to clean blenders? Add a few drops of dish soap and some water to the blender jar and blend. Just rinse.
