Easy Banana Peach Smoothie

Submitted by healthnut in college

"super simple, common ingredients, just throw it in the blender"

 

• Ready In: 8mins
• Ingredients: 6
• Yields: 2 medium glasses
• Serves: 2

ingredients

• 1⁄2 cup nonfat milk
• 1⁄4 cup nonfat yogurt (any flavor I use plain or vanilla)
• 2⁄3 cup orange juice (gives good tangy flavor but good without it too)
• 1⁄2 banana, quartered
• 1 peach, sliced
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

directions

1. Throw all ingredients in the blender and mix it up to desired thickness. Add ice cubes if you want it to be thicker.
2. If you don't have a peach, try peach nonfat yogurt in addition to the plain yogurt. Danon Light and Fit brand is great for those watching their figures. (Only 60 calories per serving!).
3. If using fresh fruit, it would probably be best if you added a few ice cubes for a quicker chilling process and a better consistency.

Very YUMMY!!! I substituted vanilla unsweetened almond milk for the milk and omitted the orange juice. I had blueberry yogurt on hand instead of regular yogurt. It really worked out well. My peaches were frozen so I didn't have to use ice cubes. My seven year old loves it, too! ??The two servings are not big so if you like a lot of smoothie, you may want to double the ingredients.

Finally got my DD to try a smoothie with this recipe! Great way to get great nutrition into my kids. I used canned peaches and recipe#99415. We loved the slight taste of oj too. Made this for Fall PAC '08. Thanks for sharing!

Lovely smoothie. I skipped the oj because I have recently tried a very similar recipe and found that I didn't care for the orange juice in it. I upped the yogurt amount and used a whole banana in this. Yumm :D
