While hot tea is my go-to during the Fall and Winter, I've mentioned before how I love to have frozen fruit in the freezer for making smoothies all year round.
Today I have a smoothie giveaway for you...two coupons for free Yoplait Frozen Smoothies and a 3-Speed KitchenAid Blender (that also includes a smoothie setting)!
Yoplait (in cooperation with My Blog Spark) also sent me two coupons to try out their frozen smoothies and my hubby and I enjoyed them on two different nights after we had put Squishy down for bed. The Yoplait smoothie package contains pieces of frozen fruit and frozen yogurt--you toss it into the blender with some milk and whal-laa! Your two smoothies are ready.
Our thoughts?
Delicious! Our favorite flavor was Triple Berry.
The caveat?
Personally, I never add sugar when I make homemade smoothies. The fruit is typically sweet enough. However, the Yoplait smoothies do contain sugar. With that in mind, I would consider these smoothies better fit for dessert than for breakfast.
Do you drink smoothies all year round (Psssst...if you don't...you can just save your smoothie coupons for when it warms up a bit!)?
If you'd like to try Yoplait Frozen Smoothies (along with the KitchenAid Blender), just leave a comment on this post to be entered to win. Don't forget to leave me your email address so I can get in touch with you.
For an additional entry, if you subscribe to Alicia's Homemaking via reader or email, leave an extra comment telling me so!
This giveaway will end on December 8th, 2010.
Disclosure: Yoplait and Kitchen Aid provided me with coupons for free Yoplait Frozen Smoothies and a KitchenAid Blender in partnership with My Blog Spark. All opinions are my own.

I can't have smoothies regularly (too much dairy for my Crohns to handle). However, my husband has one EVERY DAY!!! Doesn't matter the weather. He has one. So, this would almost be a gift for him wouldn't it!!!

Oh! kathill2006 at gmail
Look at you! What a great giveaway and pleasant gift of a blender! We love smoothies and my favorite way to make them special is by adding a little fresh mint.
ReplyDeleteI love these little smoothie packets!! I have bought them in bulk from Costco, and they are a delicious snack or dessert. If you mix them with orange juice, it is equally good with a different flavor, and for extra sweetness you can add honey, though you don't need to with these smoothies~!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!

ReplyDeleteWe love smoothies for snack time. I typically add a little frozen broccoli or spinach as well. Adds a little more veggie into our day, but the fruit usually overpowers any veggie taste.
ReplyDeleteSince our blender is pretty weak we could totally use this giveaway!

We make protein smoothies with frozen strawberries (plus whatever other frozen fruit we have) and one banana, plus a scoop of whey protein powder. After adding these to the blender I fill it mostly with milk and add a little bit of O.J. Yummy and a good easy way to get protein in the morning.

What a fabulous giveaway! Our blender magically leaped off of the counter and onto the floor (not really..one of my toddlers knocked it over), so smoothies have been scarce around here. Normally we would make them ever Sunday afternoon (regardless of the time of year), and sit down to enjoy a family movie. Now we've been subjected to eating our fruit instead of drinking it. THE NERVE! lol just kidding. We love fruit and yogurt in all forms.
ReplyDeleteThis would be an AWESOME win for us as ours is in blender heaven.
