GRANOLA PEACH SMOOTHIE
You can throw just about anything in a fruit smoothie to enhance its flavor such as honey, tofu, jams, any combination of fruits, peanut butter, juices, etc., but keep in mind it will effect the nutritional values.
1 ripe, medium-size peach 2 teaspoons lemon juice 2 teaspoons honey 1/2 cups yogurt 2 tablespoons granola or buckwheat crunchies
Blend the first four ingredients. Sprinkle granola or buckwheat on to.
The low fat granola tends to be dryer than traditional granola, and may indeed be healthier if the recipe is not further modified to add sugars or other empty calories.
"Peach is rich in beta-carotene , which the body converts into Vitamin A", says Mary Ellen Camire, Ph.D., professor of Food Science at the Univerity os Maine at Orono."This nutrient fortifies membranes so they're more resistant to infection.
