You may use any fruit in season, make sure @ least one of the fruits is frozen for thickness in the smoothie. You may add ice, but that will dilute the flavor a bit.

Watermelon/Banana

3 c. fresh watermelon, cubed
1 banana, peeled
1/2 c. vanilla yogurt
2 ice cubes
Put all the ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth. I like to use the "liquefy" button.

Cantaloupe/Blueberry

2 c. cantaloupe, peeled and cubed
1 banana, peeled
1/2 c. frozen blueberries
1/2 c. vanilla yogurt
1/4 c. orange juice
Blend in the blender until smooth; you may have to stir a little if the fruit gets stuck.

Substitutions

Fresh or frozen strawberries
*Grapes w/ peel
Fresh or frozen peaches
Nectarines
