Banana Cream Pie Smoothie
A higher-fiber alternative to plain milk, this smoothie doubles as a smart breakfast or a milk shake-like treat. One serving of the smoothie contains 315 milligrams of calcium, roughly the same amount as a glass of milk. Freeze and store extra bananas in zip-top plastic bags so you can whip up this smoothie in a flash.

1 cup vanilla low-fat yogurt

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Graham cracker crumbs

Arrange banana slices in a single layer on a baking sheet, and freeze until firm (about 1 hour).
