Super Healthy-No Fat Smoothie

Submitted by Kasha

"This is inspired from a recipe I saw yesterday on a French TV cooking show. Couldn't be healthier or easier. This is for one large serving. It could easily serve two, or just multiply the recipe. You really need a blender to do this correctly."

 

• Ready In: 5mins
• Ingredients: 3
• Serves: 1

ingredients

• 1 apple
• 1 orange
• 1⁄3 cup water

directions

1. Peel, seed and cut the apple and orange into large chunks.
2. Put the chunks in the blender with the water, and, honey, some sugar, or fake sweeetner, if desired.
3. Blend until it is thick, it takes a minute or two, and I went up to the higest blender setting to get it really smooth.
4. Pour into a glass and have as part of a really healthy breakfast.
5. Can use an apple and a pear, as an alternative.
6. Or other fruit would work as well.

Great! I used an apple and some fresh pineapple which is properly food combined as per http://detoxifynow.com/Images/foodcombining%20(Small).jpg I will be trying this with different fruits.

This is really good. I used a Green apple and an orange. Both were room temperature so I used a couple ice cubes and substituted the water with a splash of milk. I was really curious how this paring would taste, and definitely impressed. Next time I'm going to add some pineapple for a bit more tartness.

This is such a healthy and filling drink, so satisfying and nutritious. I used a pear with an apple and no sweeteners. I just drank this with my 2 yr old son. We both loved it and we're huge fans of fresh fruit drinks, will try apple & orange next time. Thanks for posting Kasha!

DH and I shared this and while he thought it could be sweeter, I thought it tasted perfect. I did use about a pinch of sugar in this. I think next time I may use more orange to apple ratio but that's just a personal preferance, as this tasted great! Thanks for sharing such a wonderful recipe Kasha!

Been doing that blend for some good time. Try these suggestions: Use some LowFat milk instead of water. A tablespoon of honey. 3 helping of lowFat yogurt and BlendAway... EnjoY!
