Smoothies A La Post Dental Surgery

For this recipe you will need a blender. Due to the consistency of the the liquid, you may have to take the jar off the stand and stir it up with a spoon to prevent clumping on the bottom.

What you will need:

3/4 C yoghurt -- plain

1/2 C apple sauce

1 1/2 tsp vanilla

2-3 Tsp brown sugar

1/2 C ice

3/4 C frozen berries of your choice. I used mixed berry medley

Place the ingredient is the blender in the order and puree for about 30-45 seconds until desired consistency is achieved.

Avoid using straws after dental surgery as it my cause the bloodclots in the sockets of your mouth to become dislodged and cause a VERY painful condition called dry socket.
