PAPAYA 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.

2 papayas, ripe
1/2 cups orange juice
1/2 cups vanilla frozen yogurt 
 
Peel, seed and coarsely chop papayas. Combine all ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.

Makes 2 servings. About 2 cups of papaya cubes  would make two tall glasses of smoothie. Select the ripest for best flavor.

If not ripe enough, you may have to add a little sugar to the smoothie.

Papaya is an excellent source of vitamin C, with 82mg per 100g (4oz), and is rich in carotene. After treatment with antibiotics the use of papaya juice will quickly assist the restoration of the normal bacteria in the gut which will have been destroyed by the treatment. Papaya is good for many digestive disorders and is excellent for improving poor digestion.
