Sunday Smoothies: Peach-Grape-Melon with Grapefruit Juice and Tofu

Green Girl Goodies, September 2012

I used the rest of my delicious golden melon for this smoothie.  The grapefruit adds a nice citrus element which is a great complement to the sweetness of the melon, peach and grape!

Yield 1 extra large 44 oz serving or 4 small 11 oz servings 

1 c Grapes

1 c Peaches, fresh or frozen

1 c Watermelon

½ Block Silken Tofu “Firm”, preferably Mori-Nu

2 c Spinach

2 c Grapefruit Juice

2 tb Honey

2 tb Chia Seed

-     Place the grapes, peaches, melon and spinach in the blender.

-     Add the grapefruit juice then the agave, being careful to pour in the middle so it doesn’t get stuck on the sides of the blender.

-     Use your hand to crush up the tofu as you place it in the blender.

-     Blend well.  Pour into your desired serving glasses and split the Chia seeds accordingly amongst your servings.
