It’s Smoothie Saturday
I hope you had an amazing 4th of July yesterday. One filled with lots of family and friends, relaxing and taking in all the patriotic fun for the day. We enjoyed a festive bbq, I made homemade potato salad + my hubby did the grilling, topped by watching fireworks with the kiddos.
With the holidays over, we are back to our groove here, for another edition of Smoothie Saturday. Each Saturday I feature a new smoothie recipe you can enjoy by yourself or share with the kids - either way this is a great + refreshing drink.
It’s July and summer’s in full swing so here’s what’s on the menu:
Watermelon Smoothie
Ingredients
2 Cups - Watermelon
1 Cup - Apple Juice
6 Strawberries, sliced
1/3 cup - Plain Greek Yogurt
5 - Ice Cubes
Makes 16 oz.
Add all your ingredients into your blender, mix well, and you’ve got yourself a refreshing summer smoothie aka a Watermelon Smoothie.
This one also happens to be my daughters favorite…Once I whip this together, she’s the first to the kitchen to enjoy a cup. This is the perfect smoothie for a hot summer day. We make this one a lot, it’s a great snack for the kids too!
If you’ve ever missed a Smoothie Saturday. Here’s a few more recipes you might enjoy.
A refreshing Pineapple-Mango Smoothie or a fantastic Blueberry Smoothie
Thanks for stopping by for another Smoothie Saturday, one of my favorite days each week to share a new recipe with you. Do you have a favorite so far? Or do you want to see a certain recipe?… If so, drop me a line, I’d love to know!
Watermelon is the perfect summer blend for a smoothie. Thanks for sharing I will be trying this with my kids.
I hope your kids like it just as much as mine did. It’s a perfect summer smoothie, especially for the kids to enjoy. Thanks for stopping by Jenn.
We had a rendition of this for lunch today. My coworker bought a bunch of watermelons and strawberries for the 4th party yesterday and didn’t want them to go to waste. We didn’t have the yogurt though. I bet this one tastes slightly better, haha. Happy Saturday!

I made this TWICE! Once yesterday and once today. Absolutely refreshing and delicious! I shared with my daughter and she requested it for snack today! I made it with frozen cherries instead of strawberries today, and it was so yummy. Thank you for a wonderful smoothie recipe!
