Cinnamon Peach Smoothie

Preparation time: 10 minutes

Serves: 1

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup diced peaches (fresh, frozen or canned)
  • ½ cup low-fat plain yogurt
  • ½ cup any liquid (milk, soy milk, rice milk, Boost, Ensure, Boost Plus, or Ensure Plus, or a generic version of one of these products); use more than ½ cup if needed to blend
    1 tablespoon honey
  • Cinnamon to taste (1/8 teaspoon is a good place to start)

Instructions:

  • Clean, peel, and prepare the fruit and place in the blender.
  • Add liquid ingredients to blender.
  • Blend all of the ingredients together to your desired consistency.
  • Add additional liquid to the blender if needed to thin out consistency for better blending. Depending on the strength of your blender, you may need more or less liquid to make the mixture blend.

**In any smoothie recipe, you can use whichever liquid that you like. Examples of liquids that work well for making smoothies include soy milk, rice milk, almond milk, oat milk, or regular nonfat milk. You can use a liquid nutritional supplement, such as Boost® or Ensure® as well. To maximize the calories and protein in any smoothie or shake, try using Boost Plus®, Ensure Plus®, or a generic version of one of these products as your liquid.

If you can’t finish the whole smoothie at once, you can store the unused portion in the refrigerator or freezer. You can re-blend the smoothie later that same day by adding a little more liquid. Do not store any unused portion of the smoothie in the refrigerator for more than one day.
