I love smoothies and they are fast to prepare.

Here is one of my favourites

Mango Cream Smoothie
3 servings—Dairy-free

Mango makes this drink a rich tropical blend. Different yogurt flavors vary the effect–peach is my favorite, but orange or apricot are good too. Don’t worry about mashing the mango flesh when removing it from the pit and the skin, because it’s going to be pureed. Adding soy powder boosts the protein to 17 grams.

1 cup mango flesh, frozen (from 2 medium mangoes)
2 Tbs. frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
1 cup peach or orange soy yogurt
1 1/2 cups vanilla soy milk
Juice of 1/2 lime
Directions:

In blender, combine mango, orange juice concentrate, soy yogurt, soy milk and lime juice and blend until smooth and creamy. Serve right away.

PER serving: 247 CAL; 8 G PROT; 6 G TOTAL FAT ( 2 SAT. FAT) ; 44 G CARB.; 111 MG SOD.; 4 G FIBER;

grin I had it today

I forgot half of the ingredients (I think the lime is a really good idea, adds some zest), but put some oatmeal (2 spoons) and some walnuts, and it was DELICIOUS !!!

Content and happy 4 hours later grin

It’s important to know that at the end of the day it’s not the medals you remember.  What you remember is the process-- what you learn about yourself by challenging yourself, the experiences you share with other people, the honesty the training demands—those are things nobody can take away from you whether you finish last or you’re an Olympic Champion.

To tri is to risk failure, not to tri is to guarantee it!

There you go Emmi,
1 1/2 cups diced fresh mango
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1/2 cup ice cubes
2 tablespoons honey
1 1/4 teaspoons rose water
1 1/2 cups plain yogurt

In a blender, combine the mango, orange juice, ice, honey, and rose water. Process on high speed until well-combined, about 30 seconds. Add the yogurt and process until frothy, about 45 seconds. Serve.

You can also add cardamom seed for a little extra flavor.

Sometimes I put some ocean spray in the blender with ice and make a slushy!

I add some Bacardi, but don’t tell anyone!(or else they’ll come over and drink the whole bottle on me!)

Hmmmm, that’s one I haven’t heard of before. I might have to try that after the semester is over.

That’s one big Smootie, dude!

Hey I’m trying your smoothie recipe, Shawn, for tomorrow’s breakfast. I’m curious what the rose water is going to do. I’ve never used it before. I bought some for this and when I got it home and opened it I was tempted to dab some on my wrists and under my ear lobes! It smells very pretty.
