Cooling down with a summertime smoothie

I love making smoothies all year round, but on hot summer nights they are simply the perfect treat. When I have a craving for something sweet I’ll mix in some ice, strawberries, bananas, mangoes and whatever other fruit I picked up that week in a blender – and voila! Also, if you find yourself making a lot of smoothies, but don’t have time to pick up fruit as quickly as you eat them, keep a stack of frozen fruits in the freezer.

Mango-Peach Smoothie Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 peach, sliced
• 1 mango, peeled and diced
• 1/2 cup vanilla soy milk
• 1/2 cup orange juice, or as needed

1. Place the peach, mango, soy milk, and orange juice into a blender.

Can’t get more easy that that! If you’re looking to add some nutritional benefits to your smoothie try adding some flax seed oil.
