How to vacuum-package fresh fruit for smoothies:

Line a baking sheet or pan that fits in the freezer with wax paper or plastic wrap.

Cut slices of bananas, peaches, nectarines, mangoes or other fruit 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. For easier blending, do not freeze fruits in pieces larger than 1 inch cubes.

Arrange sliced fruits or whole berries in a single layer. Or, stack fruit in multiple layers separated by wax paper or plastic wrap. Cover top layer with plastic wrap. Freeze fruit until solid.

For individual smoothie servings, place about 1 1/2 cups (about 8 ounces)

frozen fruits into a quart-size Food Saver bag.

Label, vacuum-package according to manufacturers instructions (or wrap tightly, using freezer-wrap materials). (Note: During vacuum-packaging, gently press fruit flat in bag for easier stacking and freezer storage.) Store in freezer for up to 2 years.
