Substitute any fruit that you like for those listed--You can change it up every time. You can also substitute fruit juice for the milk; I like the creaminess the milk provides. Also, use frozen fruit whenever possible. You will need no ice if you do that, & the flavors will be more intense.
MIXED FRUIT SMOOTHIE 1/2 cup cantaloupe, chopped 4 medium strawberries 1/4 cup blueberries 1/2 cup skim milk (approximate) 1/2 tsp vanilla Ice, as needed
Place fruit, milk & vanilla in blender. Blend on high just till combined. Add ice to freeze & thicken. If you are using frozen fruit, add only as much milk as necessary to keep mixture frozen & thick. You may need more or less milk.

I guess it's not really pumpkin-eating season, but I love this smoothie. I should warn you that I'm the only one in my family who likes it! It's very pumpkin-y!
