To help select the winner, Sandy Gluck, food editor of Everyday Food, will lend her taste buds and expertise.
"A great recipe should not only taste good and look good, but also should be good for you, and Smoothies are a fun and delicious way to incorporate more milk into your diet and help get the recommended three glasses of lowfat or fat free milk a day," says Gluck.
