1/2 cups chopped date
1 banana, chopped, (about 1/2 cup)
1/2 cups orange juice
1/2 cups plain nonfat yogurt
1/2 cups crushed ice

BERRY BLISS SMOOTHIE

2 scoops raspberry sherbet
4 strawberries
15 blueberries
5 blackberries
16 ounces orange juice (or juice of your choice)

Put all ingredients in a blender, juice last, then blend until smooth.
To add thickness try adding more sherbet or ice to the smoothie.
Pour into a tall glass to serve.

BERRY BANANA SMOOTHIE

1 large banana, peeled, sliced and frozen
3/4 cups frozen or fresh strawberries,
raspberries or blueberries
3/4 cups low or non fat vanilla frozen yogurt
1 12ounces can or bottle of regular or diet
ginger ale, chilled

Place all the ingredients in a blender or food processor.
Cover and blend at highest speed until smooth.
Note: if you use fresh berries, try to use a frozen banana,
and if you use a fresh banana, go for frozen berries.
Otherwise your drink will be too thin.
Both fruits being frozen will give you a satisfyingly thick drink.
