Peach Mango Smoothie

two smoothies with frozen fruit, a top healthy convenience food

Peach Mango Smoothie

I’m finishing up my Summer Smoothie Series with one that might qualify as dessert. Another recipe I developed for Cooking Light Magazine, this peach-mango number delivers a generous dose of fruit while tasting like a real treat. Using frozen fruit instead of fresh doesn’t skimp on nutrients and makes for an especially cold and frothy blend. The smoothie works well poured into pop molds and frozen for several hours as well.

Sitting up here in a blanket of summer fog, I envy your sunshine, Aida.

Hi Katie! What kind of fruit yogurt do you use? They all seem to have so much sugar.

That’s part of why I call this a dessert smoothie since it is higher in sugar than my typical smoothie. Brands vary by region, but I generally like the Stonyfield Farms brand. Sometimes I’ll opt for a fruit-at-the-bottom variety and then not scoop up all the syrupy fruit, thus cutting some of the sugar.
