Yoplait Frozen Smoothies and a Giveaway

I have always been a lover of a good smoothie. No doubt about it. I hesitate though when it comes to actually making them at home. Sure they’re tasty and nutritious, but if you’ve ever made one at home you know how messy it can get. Not to mention the amount of ingredients you have to put together to make it just right.

With much thanks to Yoplait I can now concoct smoothies for two (or more) in less than 2 minutes and using only the package they sell in the freezer aisle and a cup of milk. Each Yoplait smoothie contains a full serving of fruit and the frozen yogurt pieces already in the package contain your live and active cultures. Let’s not forget about the calcium and vitamin C each contains as well. The taste is incredibly creamy and fruity at the same time. My favorite flavor has been the Very Berry, but there are others to choose from as well.

Each member in our family loved these for different reasons. Personally, I am horrible about eating breakfast. This smoothie is a perfect solution for me opposed to the cup (or 3) of coffee I normally consume for breakfast. For the kids this has been a great solution for afternoon snack. Ryan is always starving when he gets home from school, but I never want to give him too much to eat because then he won’t eat his dinner. One package of Yoplait Smoothie after school makes enough for Olivia, Ryan and a little for myself as well. This gets them another serving of their fruit for the day and it fills them up enough until dinner, but not too much.

Again, they are easy to prepare. You can make these in any blender, however I’ve been making mine in a single serve blender that has just enough space to prepare one package of Yoplait smoothie.  This makes 2-3 glasses of smoothie for kid sized portions.  All you do is poor the ingredients from the package into the blender followed by your 1 cup of milk and blend for 1.5 minutes. It’s then ready to serve and any leftovers can be stored in  your refrigerator.
