Peach Smoothie

Jump to Recipe

On Saturday I stopped by the Regional Market in Syracuse to browse the selection of fresh, local fruits and vegetables. It was amazing to see the mounds of produce, and it was also amazing to see the crowds of people.  I went at around 10am, and it was packed, and so crowded it was hard to walk.  Clearly many people in the community like the fresh products available.

The best thing this time of year is all the fruit. I can grow some vegetables in my garden, but fruit is a lot harder to grow.  This week for fruit we bought peaches, blueberries and sweet cherries. One of my children’s favorite things to do with fruit is make fruit smoothies. So when we got home we turned the peaches into our favorite fruit smoothie.

  1. My husband makes the yummiest smoothies. The kids love them. He mixes strawberries and raspberries into them. Sometimes he even adds peanut butter for extra protein.

  3. Our favorite health recipe is Chicken Noodle Soup, all done in the Crock Pot overnight with tons of fresh vegetables and herbs. 🙂

  5. We love to cook meals with foods from the garden!! Our favorite right now is Zucchini Chicken parmigiana. We layer slices of zucchini, and layers of grilled chicken breast, pour homemade spaghetti sauce over it and top with a small amount of really good cheese…. my fave is goat cheese or an herbed jack. Bake and enjoy!

  8. My family always love rice and beans. Beans are a great source of protein, and it can be a replacement for meat.

  9. After a family trip to McD’s one night for parfaits, we’ve started making our own with plain yogurt, blueberries, strawberries, and black raspberries.

  19. Our favorite recipe comes right from our garden vegetables at this time of year. It’s zucchini slices, tomato slices, a bit of green tabasco, basil, salt, crushed garlic, olive oil, and 1/4 c Parmesan cheese. You toss everything together and bake it for 30 minutes at 425F.

  25. My son and I love to make smoothies with strawberries we’ve picked at a local farm. Often, we’ll add things like raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, or any other kind of berry we can find fresh. I usually add a scoop of protein powder and a spoonfull of raw honey.

    Thanks for the chance!

  33. Our favorite is a summer time dish we make all the time: you layer tomato sauce, zucchini, fresh tomatos, chicken and top with fresh tomatos and cheese. It is great using garden veggies and very healthy:)

  34. Grilled veggies kabob:

  37. right now we’re juicing, here’s the juice we are drinkings recipe:

    1 cucumber
    1/2 lemon
    3 cups spinach
    2 granny smith apples

  40. Our family has been enjoying a recipe that I recently found on the Valley Natural Foods website. Here it is:
    Rustic Gazpacho

    Gazpacho is the quintessential summer soup. This chunky, flavorful version is easy to prepare and easy to love.

    2 lbs. ripe tomatoes, cored and diced
    1 medium cucumber, seeded and diced
    1 large green bell pepper, seeded and diced
    1 C. jicama (about 1/2 of a large jicama), peeled and diced
    1 small jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced (more if you like things hot!)
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    1 1/2 C. tomato or vegetable juice
    1 1/2 limes, juiced (about 1/4 cup juice)
    1 Tbsp. sherry vinegar (or red wine vinegar)
    1 tsp .salt (optional)
    Ground black pepper to taste
    1 avocado, peeled, seeded, and diced (prep avocado just before serving the gazpacho to prevent browning)

    In a large mixing bowl, stir all ingredients together except for the avocado. For optimal flavor, allow the mixture to sit for a couple hours to allow the flavors to blend. Stir in the avocado just before serving. Serve with crusty bread and additional hot sauce, if desired.

  42. One of our healthiest recipes is fruit kabobs on the grill. The whole family loves them. We usually use cut up (or canned) peaches, pineapples, grapes and apples. Basically, we’ve used most fruits and they all taste wonderful.
    Thanks so much.

  48. We LOVE stuffed peppers, and honestly, nobody can tell that it’s turkey instead of fatty ground beef! This is the base recipe that I use, but I like to spice it up by adding things to the stuffing. Be creative! It’s also easy enough to make more or less based upon your family size. I always tend to do a lot of taste testing while making these too! 🙂

    Ingredients

    3 Green bell peppers, halved lengthwise, seeded.
    1 14.5oz can diced tomatoes (italian seasoned)
    1 lb ground turkey 93% lean

    salt and pepper to taste

    Directions

    makes 5 or 6 – 1/2 shell stuffed peppers. (depending on size of peppers)

    preheat oven to 375

    for al-dente pepperspreferred), par boil 3 minutes and drain / for el-crunchy skip that step.

    In skillet cook onion and turkey until turkey is browned and onion is clear. drain any excess fat

    add water, whole can tomatoes (juice too), rice, worcestershire, seasonings. bring to a boil,reduce to simmer and cover 15-20 minutes.

    after 15-20 min (rice is cooked), remove cover, and allow any additional liquids to reduce on low heat, stirring occasionaly until all gone. (this really intesifies flavors)

    stuff peppers, place in a baking dish, cover with remaining cheese. bake 15-20 minutes or until cheese is melted and just browned.

    serve immediately.

  49. Thanks for the giveaway…our kids love fresh fruit as a snack, especially mango, topped with vanilla greek-style yogurt.

    senorpiero [at] yahoo [dot] com

  53. favorite is chicken breasts in spaghetti sauce, seved over rice with frozen peas cooked and added to the rice and a salad

  55. I ate this salad at a restaurant and liked it so much, I reproduced it at home. The base is spring mix. Top with feta cheese, dried cranberries, cherry tomatoes, sunflower seeds, and mandarin oranges (or apple slices). Dress with a balsamic vinaigrette. For a heartier salad, add some grilled chicken or fish.

  56. We make our favorite fruit salad. It has apples, raisins, mango, strawberries, and cantaloupe in it.

  58. We love fresh fruit with yogurt and granola! Blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, bananas, whatever you like is great for this… and super easy!

  59. I like to make a Fresh Summer Vegetable Soup from all the great veggies that are in season.
    ceriehl at gmail dot com

  61. We make our own thin crust pizza with Flat Out Wraps, Weight Watchers Cheese and Turkey Pepperoni. Delicious!

  62. Our favorite healthy recipe is the one for roasted vegetable soup we make all year round:

    Ingredients:
    1 large red onion, peeled
    8 ounces carrots, peeled
    8 ounces sweet potatoes, peeled
    8 ounces butternut squash, peeled and seeded
    8 ounces sweet red peppers, deseeded
    6 ounces tomatoes
    1 head garlic
    1 -2 tablespoon olive oil
    2 sprigs fresh rosemary
    1 1/2 liters vegetable stock
    fresh ground black pepper
    2 -3 tablespoons low-fat Greek yogurt

    Directions:
    1 Preheat the oven to 150°C.
    2Chop the peeled and de-seeded butternut squash, sweet potato, sweet peppers, onion and carrot into nice big chunky pieces – 2inch diameter will be fine.
    3Cut the tomatoes into similar sized chunks, and remove the seedy-jelly bit.
    4Toss the vegetables with the olive oil until they’re nicely coated and add the rosemary.
    5Place in the oven for about 1 1/2 – 2 hours, adding the whole garlic bulb after the first hour. The veg should now be cooked, slightly caramelized and almost chewy, with a much more intense and mellow flavor.
    6Remove the rosemary sprigs and place all veggies in a pan. Squeeze the garlic out of their papery husks into the pan too and add stock.
    7Liquidize the soup in batches and reheat. Check seasoning and serve in big bowls with a swirl of greek yogurt on top.

  64. My favorite healthy recipe is sirracha aoli grilled corn with cojita cheese!

    SUPER simple!

    Grill corn.
    Take mayo, dash of garlic powder, and a dash of siraccha hot sauce and mix together.
    Spread thin layer on grilled corn.
    roll in cojita cheese.

    Impossible to mess up, and the layer of mayo is so thin (just enough to bind the cheese to the corn) it is technically still really healthy!

  65. Here is one of our favorite recipes:
    Vegetable-hamburger soup:
    -1 lb hamburger
    -1 can beef broth
    -11.5 oz vegetable-tomato juice
    -1 cup water
    -5 red potatoes diced (skin left on)
    -2 carrots peeled and diced
    -2 celery stalks diced
    -1 can diced tomatoes
    -1 cup frozen corn
    -1 cup frozen green beans
    -small diced onion
    -salt and pepper
    -minced garlic (I used lot’s of garlic, but put as much as you like)

    -Brown hamburger in a large pot. combine remaining ingredients with the hamburger in the large pot. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer, simmer for 30 minutes, or until vegetables are tender. Serve with yummy bread 🙂

    –Add any other veggies you would like, mushrooms would be yummy too! I add more potatoes than the original recipe calls for, but add as many as you’d like. The more veggies you add, the less “soupy” it will be.

  67. We cook a lot of stir fries and we use 1 lbs boneless, skinless, chicken breasts cut into bite sized pieces and cook in a little oil. When nearly done, toss in equal parts minced ginger and garlic. Remove chicken and set aside, then add more oil and add in 2 cups of seasonal vegetables, when nearly done add in the chicken, mix and add a bit of soy sauce.

  70. Our favorite healthy recipe is to make our own home made raw almond, cashew, or walnut butter. The basic recipe is to take a 2 cups of raw (unroasted) almonds, blend in a food processor, adding in a little honey and sea salt. I prefer to make my own so Im sure it’s additive free.

  71. During the summer months, we’re really big fruit eaters. I will leave a bunch of fruit in a big bowl in the fridge with a box of toothpicks… works like a charm! As for dinner, we eat a ton of chicken as our standard meat and a great protein!

  73. This is my favorite smoothie:
    I cup yogurt
    1 cup strawberries
    1/2 cup banana
    1/4 cup apple juice
    1/4 cup ice.
