Green Girl Goodies, September 2012

Loved the golden melon smoothies so much I decided to buy another one and continue the streak.

Yield 1 extra large 48 oz serving or 2 24 oz servings 


1 c Golden Watermelon


1 c Cantaloupe


1 c Honeydew


1 c Peaches, fresh or frozen
1 c Mixed Berries
1 c Grapefruit Juice
2 tb Honey Flavored Agave
2 tb Chia Seed

-     Place the melon, peaches and berries in the blender and add the grapefruit juice.


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


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

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.
