Summer Garden Smoothie


This one is chock full of summer veggies and fruit.  For something a little different, cottage cheese replaces the usual yogurt or milk.  You might notice that this is really a yellow smoothie, but that little bit of spinach definitely overpowers any other colors.  Either way, yellow or green, it was delicious and energizing, and very filling.

Summer Garden Smoothie


½ c. yellow summer squash, sliced
½ c. cucumber, peeled and sliced
1 c. carrots, shredded
½ c. yellow bell pepper, chunks
½ c. spinach, chopped (frozen)
½ c. mango, chunks (frozen)
½ c. peaches, sliced (frozen)
½ c. cottage cheese
¼ c. orange juice
1 ½ T. Whey protein powder, vanilla flavor
1 t. honey


Blend ingredients in a blender until smooth.
