Aloha Smoothies



Here is a delicious treat that will help you feel like you're on a tropical vacation... and might also help you fit into your vacation clothes!  =) 
This smoothie would be perfect as a light breakfast, or as an afternoon or evening treat.

1 fresh mango, peeled and chopped (or 1 cup frozen chunks)
1 cup fresh or frozen pineapple
1/2 of a banana, fresh or frozen (nice and ripe)
1/2 cup lowfat vanilla yogurt
1 cup milk
A handful of ice

Blend all of the ingredients in a blender until smooth.
Pour into glasses and enjoy!

Feel free to take this up a notch by adding a generous splash of coconut rum.
