I’m a fan of quick and healthy, and this Mixed Berry Yogurt Smoothie could not be simpler to prepare. With no kitchen equipment needed, you can stockpile your fridge for a week of breakfasts or have the perfect brunch starter, packed with protein and organic goodness. Best yet, if you are looking for a way to pack more fruits and veggies into your meals, you can do so in a burst of intense berry deliciousness. Who would guess these bottles of juice had 7 strawberries, 1/2 a kiwi, 1 1/2 bananas, the juice of 2 beets, 3/5 carrot and 1 1/6 of an apple? Or 25 blueberries, 23 blackberries,  1 1/16 bananas, the juice of 4 2/3 beets, 3/5 carrot and 2 3/4 apples? I enjoyed the rich vanilla flavor of the Stonyfield Smooth and Creamy French Vanilla yogurt, which provided a wonderfully creamy base for the the True Organic Juice.

Leave the juicer and the blender in the cabinet, grab a mason jar and let’s shake up your breakfast and brunch routine!

    Our juices lasted 2 days. We couldn’t get enough of them. They would certainly make a great smoothie.
