Wish I Were In South Beach Smoothie
Posted in: Beverages Tagged: SmoothieRecipeContest
Sure have had enough snow in my neck of the woods and looking for a bit of sunshine. Transport me to South Beach with this super tropical treat in a glass. Ahhh-rejuvenated!
Ingredients
- ¼ cup toasted old-fashioned rolled oats*
- 1 tablespoon soaked chia seeds (1 teaspoon dry, unsoaked)**
- ¼ cup coconut water
- 1 ripe mango, pitted, peeled, coarsely chopped
- 1 (12 ounce) package silken tofu, drained
- supremes (segments) of 1 fresh lime
- 3 tablespoons agave nectar (I like agave in the raw)
- 4 to 6 ice cubes
- optional garnish: lime slice, toasted oats, diced mango
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a blender. Blend for 1 minute.
- Pour into glasses. Garnish as desired.
Notes
*To toast oats, cook in a dry nonstick skillet over medium-high heat on your stovetop, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until they are golden brown. Cool oats before adding to recipes.
