homemade fruit smoothie!

today i was looking through our kitchen cupboards when i came across a cook book called squeezed. we got it as a wedding gift and as i was flipping through the pages i realized that i needed a frutasia smoothie. so off to walmart we went to get mangos, strawberries, pinneapple, bananas, kiwis, orange juice, and vanilla bean ice cream.
Now i have this issue where i choose not to follow cooking directions because i am a picky eater and sometimes i just think that food will taste better with certain things left out. so i cut up the mango, strawberries, kiwi, banana, and pinneapple.

but i only decided to put in mangos, strawberries, and bananas :)


So into the blender goes the fruit and vanilla bean icecream. I added some pinneapple and orange juice for a little extra zing.

and hit the smoothify button! and out came these delicious fruit smoothies!
