To make easy smoothies, chop leftover fruit in small cubes and freeze it in a single layer inside of a freezer bag. Later, break the frozen fruit apart (in case pieces have stuck together) and blend with apple juice, orange juice, or another juice. I use 1/2-3/4 cup of juice and 1 cup of frozen fruit for a thick smoothie. Fruits that work particularly well in smoothies are bananas, mangoes, kiwis, strawberries and blueberries.
