North Pole Strawberry Smoothie
Ho, ho, ho! Fix this strawberry and yogurt smoothie as an extra-special breakfast treat after the excitement of opening presents from Santa.

1 (10-ounce) package frozen strawberries in syrup, partially thawed and undrained
1/4 cup water
2 cups vanilla frozen yogurt
2 tablespoons vanilla reduced-fat yogurt
1 (about 6-inches) strawberry-flavored or peppermint candy cane, finely crushed
Green decorating gel

Place strawberries and water in blender. Cover and blend on medium-high speed until slushy. Blend on medium speed until smooth. Transfer to 2-cup measure.
Wash and dry blender. Place frozen yogurt and reduced-fat yogurt in blender. Cover and blend on medium speed until smooth.
Place crushed candy cane on small plate. Pipe decorating gel around rim of two 12-ounce glasses. Dip rims into crushed candy.
Carefully pour yogurt mixture and strawberries at the same time into glasses, creating a half-and-half design.
Serve with large drinking straws if desired.
Makes 2 servings.

Special Touch:
Host a Santa’s Breakfast for the neighborhood kids! Enlist a Santa (the earlier the better) to join the kids for breakfast, and have a small wrapped gift at each place setting or in Santa’s sack to be distributed.
