This cookbook has some other really fantabulously good healthy food recipes but the one that topped my list and also made me a junky, is the “Cherry-Pineapple” Smoothie (p.39), which I literally eat for breakfast almost every single day.
Below is my adapted version of the original Recipe which was already totes awesome. I’m guessing the calories of my version are around 200 or so (about 30 calories less than the original) and it’s super low in fat/sodium and high in protein.
INGREDIENTS
- 1/2 cup of light soy, coconut or almond milk
- 1/4 cup fat-free, sugar free vanilla yogurt
- 1/2 cup of frozen unsweetened “sweet” cherries
- 1/2 cup of frozen pineapple chunks
SHAKE IT UP
Throw all of those tasty ingredients into a blender and use the ice crush function. I find that if I put the milk and yogi into the blender first, the fruit blend smoother. I also use a Ninja Blender which makes my smoothie making life pretty darn perfect.
ENJOY!
