Raspberry-Peach Smoothie (Diabetic)

Submitted by januarybride

"This recipe is from a health magazine and was created by a Diabetes Education Program Director. It has low glycemic index ingredients such as peaches, apples, milk and yogurt. The moderate glycemic index ingredients would be the raspberries and the high index item would be the honey. It is very yummy and not overly sweet! I think it favors a milk shake! They say feel free to sub out blueberries or strawberries for the raspberries."

I made this smoothie for breakfast...it was quite tasty. I subbed vanilla yogurt for the plain since that is what I had on hand and cut out the sweetener. I found the fruit and honey sweet enough. Thanks for posting this recipe January Bride. Made and reviewed for the 37th AUS/NZ Recipe Swap.
