Get ready to ditch your hats, coats, and snow boots and get ready for some delicious sweet treats like cupcakes, cookies, sweet breads, and cocktails!

Welcome to #SpringSweetsWeek 2019 hosted by Heather from Hezzi-D’s Books and Cooks and Christie from A Kitchen Hoor’s Adventures! What better way to celebrate the coming of spring than with food and a fun giveaway? This week, 30 bloggers from around the country have come together to share over 100 sweet recipes perfect for spring. Our #SpringSweetsWeek sponsors – Swiss Diamond, Dixie Crystals, Nancy’s Yogurt, Sprinkle Pop, Adams Extracts, Barleans, Melissa’s Produce, and PEEPS® – are helping us give away some great prizes. Big thanks to them for their generosity! We have an incredible giveaway below the recipe and would love if you would take a moment to read about it and what you can win!

So yes, you have a week of sweet treats – sorry, not sorry. But don’t worry – I’m kicking the week off with something sweet AND HEALTHY! A smoothie – ideal for busy weekday mornings for breakfast or for a sweet but healthy snack.

I’m no stranger to smoothies – my husband and I make them a few times a week, but I had never blogged them before because I don’t have a real recipe that I follow. It’s more of a formula.

Recipe Notes for Strawberry-Raspberry Smoothie:

So taking this formula, you not only get the Strawberry-Raspberry Smoothie recipe below, but hundreds of tasty variations. Ready for it? Here we go:

• 1 – 1 1/2 c. frozen fruit – berries, mango, peaches and pineapple are my favorites. I always use frozen fruit because I like the thicker consistency. Buy prefrozen bags or freeze your own (which we do after berry picking, or when we’re unable to use up our fresh fruit, to avoid having to throw it out)
• 1/4 – 1/2 c. yogurt – Greek yogurt is my preferred, because of the protein boost but today, I wanted to use Nancy’s Yogurt – a natural yogurt that is made from only milk, honey, yogurt cultures and probiotic cultures. They’ve got the clearest ingredient list that I’ve ever seen – I seriously LOVED how easy that label was to read, and how I knew or could identify all of the ingredients. Bonus? The family owned company practices sustainable farming, which makes me like them even more!
• 1/2 c. milk – to thin out the smoothie and to add the extra calcium.

The recipe is just below, but I want to remind you one more time to check out #SpringSweetsWeek. You can follow the hashtag on social media to make things easy for you. (Prize descriptions and rafflecopter were removed a year after the contest closes, for better reader experience.)
