Chef’s Notes
- Use any fresh or frozen fruit, such as peaches, blueberries, raspberries, or mangoes. Use fruits in season when you can.
- For a creamier smoothie, use nonfat, soy, or 1% milk instead of orange juice.
- Freeze slices of fruits that are about to go bad. Use these in your smoothies.
- If smoothie is too thick, add water or ice. If smoothie is too thin, add more fruit.
- If you don’t have a blender, use a fork to mash the fruit. Whisk in the other ingredients. Serve over ice.
- To ensure this recipe is truly gluten-free, use ingredients labeled "certified gluten-free." Some foods, like oats or soy sauce, can contain traces of gluten depending on the brand or processing methods.
