Smoothie Tuesday: Nectarine, peach blast cacao smoothie
Posted on March 2nd, 2010
The nectarine ranks amount my favorite fruits, I love the explosion of flavors! Sort of makes me wonder why I don't buy these more often.
This smoothie now ranks among my favorite. I still seem to be on this chocolate kick too, maybe it’s the two 16oz bags of cacao I recently purchased. But, this one turned out to be pretty amazing I think. Next time I will probably try it without the cacao, because I think it will be equally as delicious.
The Recipe
- 1 ripe peach (pitted, leaving the skin on)
- 2.5 oz of frozen peaches (1/4 of a 10 oz bag)
- 2.5 -3 oz of frozen mangoes (or about 1/4 of a fresh one)
- 1 banana
- 2 TBSP of raw honey (or agave for 100% vegan)
- 2 TBSP of cacao powder
Combine all ingredients into a blender and whiz until smooth!
A random though just popped into my head… I should create a page listing out my favorite smoothie recipes. So, look for that in the hopefully near future.
And, on a side note. I might be running the Dallas Rock and Roll Half Marathon in two weeks. I will be sure to post if that happens. It will be hard to work in another long run before then though since I will be out climbing in Arkansas this weekend, but seeing how I just did 13.1 last weekend I think I will be okay getting in an 8 mile run sometime next week.
