Because I’m a bit of a freak, I didn’t want to have to look at chunks of brown {ripe} bananas in my smoothie bags. So as I was placing the yogurt into ice cube trays, I went ahead and pureed a bunch of peeled bananas in the blender and pour them in to some additional ice cube trays. Once the yogurt and bananas were frozen, I simply popped them out of the trays, measured 2 cups of fresh fruit and a 1/2 cup of yogurt {about 4 cubes} and sealed them into quart sized freezer bags.

To make a smoothie, simply empty the contents of the smoothie bag into the blender, add 1 cup juice {or water} and hit the blend button until the concoction is nice and smooth.
