Lucky Leprechaun Smoothies


1/2 cup lowfat vanilla yogurt
1/2 cup lowfat milk
1 tablespoon instant pistachio pudding powder
1 drop green food color


Combine all ingredients in a shaking container, cover tightly and shake (may also be stirred with a spoon or whisked). NOTE: May be made with just milk, but consistency will be runnier.

  • 3/4 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 cup crushed pineapple, drained
  • 2/3 cup low fat vanilla yogurt

    Combine all ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend on high speed for 2-3 minutes, or until frothy. Serve immediately. (Recipe is an adaptation of “Frosty Pine-Orange Surprise” created by Elizabeth Ward found on www.3aday.org )
