Get Up and Goji Smoothie

Fresh and creamy poolside treat!

Get Up and Goji Smoothie Recipe
Makes 2 servings. 

Ingredients: 

• 1 cup orange juice
• 1/4 cup dried goji berries
• 1/2 cup frozen peaches (about 1 peach)
• 1/2 cup plain yogurt
• 1 frozen banana

Instructions:

1. Toss all ingredients in blender.
2. Blend, serve and enjoy.

For this recipe I used Dole 100% Orange-Pineapple juice, Fage Total 2% Greek Yogurt and a medium banana. I recommend removing the skin from the peach before freezing, if using fresh peaches.

Dried goji berries can be purchased from your local health food store. I purchased the 1/4 cup for $0.54 at my nearest Whole Foods out of the bulk bins. Healthy and exotic doesn't have to be expensive! : )
