Yoplait Frozen Smoothie Gift Pack Giveaway

This giveaway has ended. I love smoothies! Always have, always will. When I was a kid my mom used to make an orange smoothie with a raw egg in it (until everyone realized that was bad) and my dad used to make "Orange Stuff" with orange juice, vanilla ice cream, powdered sugar and ice (yes, nice and sweet!) after he finished mowing the lawn on the weekends. Once smoothie shops became popular my favorite treat has been a toasted bagel and a nice fruity smoothie. (Is is just me or do smoothie shops always seem to be located next to bagel shops?)

Well, living in a small town now and on a small budget, smoothie shop smoothies are not exactly the best economical choice nor easy to find where I live. For quite a while now, I have taken to making my own smoothies at home (see my Fruit Smoothie recipe). I don't think anything will top homemade for me but you can often find yourself without all the ingredients you need to make your smoothie and this can be a tragedy when you've been craving that fruity, frosty snack.

A few months ago, Yoplait introduced their new line of frozen smoothies. Each package of Yoplait Frozen Smoothies contains one full serving of fruit (1/2 cup) and 110 to 120 calories per serving. Not only does Yoplait yogurt contain live and active cultures, but when prepared with skim milk and made according to package directions, Yoplait Frozen Smoothies are a good source of calcium. They come in four great flavors: Blueberry Pomegranate, Triple Berry, Strawberry Banana and Strawberry Mango Pineapple.

Each package of Yoplait Frozen Smoothies makes 2-8 oz. smoothies and all you need to do is add milk and mix in the blender. Great to have on hand when the cravings strike!

Save! - You can print a $1.00 off Yoplait Smoothies coupon when you like them on Facebook.

Win it! - Yoplait has offered to give one prize package that includes a free coupon to try Yoplait Frozen Smoothies, a drawstring backpack, a water bottle and a fitness journal.
