Tropical Ensure Smoothie - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 (8 ounce) can vanilla ensure (I use banana ensure)
1 cup ice
1 cup low-fat vanilla yogurt
1/2 cup strawberry (sliced)
1 banana (sliced)
1/2 cup coconut (finely shredded works best)
1/2 cup crushed pineapple
4 ounces whipped cream (optional)
2 -4 maraschino cherries (optional)
1/4 cup walnuts (optional)

Preparation

Put the ice in the blender.
Add fruit, yogurt, and Ensure.
Blend.
Top with Whipped Cream, cherries and nuts (optional).
Enjoy!
**Refreezing the blended mixture for 2-4 hours makes a nice \"ice cream\" as well. Top with chocolate syrup, whipped cream, cherries and nuts for a banana split sundae.
**Add a shot of espresso to the smoothie for a Starbuck's Vivanno-like treat.
