This is one of my favorite smoothies that I make at home. I came up with this recipe, but it was inspired by one of my favorites at Tropical Smoothie Cafe. The fruit is sweet enough by itself, so you don't need to add any sweetener. The frozen fruit allows you to get a frozen smoothie without adding ice, which I believe waters down the smoothie and doesn't taste as good. The yogurt adds creaminess, and the orange juice adds enough liquid to make it blend-able. The result is a tasty combination of fruit flavors, which makes for a wonderful healthy breakfast or small meal replacement.
Peach Pineapple Orange Smoothie |

Makes 1 serving
Ingredients
- ~1 C frozen pineapple chunks
- ~1 C frozen peach slices
- 1/2 to 1 container greek yogurt (I suggest vanilla or honey flavor)
- orange juice (1/2 to 1 C or more)
- optional: protein powder (I sometimes add a little BiPro protein powder, which is flavorless and unsweetened, so it can be mixed into just about anything without being noticed)
Instructions
Place all ingredients in blender, with a little bit of orange juice. Pulse on ice setting until chunks are broken up, adding as much orange juice as is necessary to make it blend-able, a little at a time. Puree until smooth.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!
