                               Tropical Smoothie                                     

Ingredients:

1/2 of a ripe red papaya

1/2 of a ripe cantaloupe

1 cup plain, organic yogurt (if you're dairy-free use organic soy yogurt)

2 cups organic vanilla soy milk or organic dairy milk*

4 Tbls. agave nectar

Directions:

1. Slice, seed and peel both the papaya and cantaloupe, then cut into bite sized pieces.  Place the fruit in separate zippered bags and freeze for up to 4 hours. 

2. In a blender, chop the fruit thoroughly.

3. Add the rest of the ingredients and blend until smooth.  

Serve fresh.  If you have left-overs just store in an air-tight pitcher or jar for the next day.  

Stir or re-blend the left-overs until smooth, because the liquid will have separated.   

Makes 4 servings

*If you would prefer to have the consistency of an icee, just add half the milk.
