Lime Smoothie

lime-smoothie1

It is time for lime, as in a refreshing lime smoothie recipe. I personally love the taste of lime and you’ll notice there are not too many smoothie recipes for this wonderful fruit. Of course to make it more palatable I have add some great sweeteners. Let me know what you think.

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup lime (sliced)
  • 3/4 cup low-fat milk
  • 1 cup lime sherbet (can be light or low fat)
  • 1/2 cup raspberries
  • 2 cups ice

You can substitute key lime yogurt for the sherbet for a smoother, albeit, slightly different taste.

As I’ve written before I am not a big fan of peaches. I just don’t care for the flavor of a peach. But I’ve been told I’m weird so I try to give the peach its due and include peach smoothie recipes. Here is a healthy recipe for a peach smoothie that I might even try one day.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups of sliced peaches
  • 1/2 cup of fat free milk (or 1/4 fat free milk and 1/4 soy milk)
  • 1 cup lowfat peach yogurt
  • 2 cups of ice
  • Dash of nutmeg
