Spring is a great time for smoothies.
I love smoothies as they are a great way to enjoy fruit and they make for a nutritious snack or breakfast. I always have plenty of frozen fruit in my freezer so I can whip a smoothie in no time. Some of my favorite frozen fruits are mangos, peaches, strawberries, and blueberries. I think frozen fruits make my smoothies taste so much better too. My favorite fruit to use is Wyman's of Maine as they process their fruit within 24 hours of harvest, thus locking in the fresh fruit flavor. I just love the creamy texture that frozen fruit gives to my smoothies also. Wyman's of Maine carries so many different fruits so I can make a different smoothie every day. My boys love when I make them a smoothie for an afternoon treat. Their favorite smoothie is made with frozen mango and coconut flakes. It is a wonderful tropical frozen drink. I add chia seeds to give my boys some heart healthy omegas and protein. Check out my recipe and then keep reading to see how your favorite smoothie recipe can win you a top of the line blender and a one-year supply of Wyman's frozen fruit.
