Peach Lassi (Smoothie)

Yum
 I love a cool fruity drink like this Peach Lassi/Smoothie to tide myself and the kids over around 3pm.  This hour is well past lunch and a long way from dinner so something small to fill that gnawing in your tummy is perfect.  The fact that this is healthy and ready in 2 minutes is also perfect.  If you do not have peach nectar/juice you can substitute a tropical juice like Splash.



 Ingredients:
1 cup frozen or fresh peaches
2 cups of peach juice/nectar
1 cup low-fat yogurt
ice if needed
honey or agave syrup to taste
pinch of cardamom powder or cinnamon powder (optional)

 Directions:
Throw all ingredients into blender and blend until smooth. Serve immediately while chilled.  Enjoy.

  6. 3pm is always my afternoon snack time too. Mango lassi is my special treat when we go to Indian restaurants. This is a great snack; like a shake but counts as a fruit serving. Yum!

  14. We always hit the 3:00 slump. The kids are hungry because it's been a few hours since lunch, but it's too early to feed them dinner. I'm always looking for a light (and healthy) snack for them. I love this idea because they are usually asking for cookies/candies/ice cream around this time. Peach nectar is really easy to find here and I've actually been keeping peaches in the house as I've found them at a great price recently. Just have to remember to pick up yogurt the next time I'm at the store :)
