Peachy Keen Smoothie

February 25, 2014 By Kristen Feola

Peachy Keen Smoothie

Peachy Keen Smoothie

I like smoothies, especially green ones. When I made Peachy Keen for the first time, I loved it. But, I decided to get my husband's opinion before posting the recipe. Justin is not a big fan of weird-colored drinks. He's more of a Strawberry-Banana Smoothie kind of guy.
Justin's first comment was, "It doesn't taste like it looks." (In other words, I'm surprised it tastes so great because of the color! ) Then, after a few more gulps, he said, "This is excellent, babe!" If my husband approves, I know you will, too.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsweetened non-dairy milk (almond, coconut, rice, soy or water)
  • 1 cup sliced fresh or frozen banana, peeled (about 1 medium banana)
  • 1 cup sliced fresh or frozen peaches
  • 1 cup fresh spinach or kale leaves
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped walnuts (about ½ ounce)
  • 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal, optional

Instructions
 

  • Place all ingredients in a blender, and process until smooth.
  • Yield: 2 servings (serving size: about 8 ounces or 1 cup)

Notes

  • If your smoothie is too thick, add a little more non-dairy milk or water.
  • Make sure either the banana or peaches are frozen so your smoothie is chilled.
  • To freeze bananas, remove peels before placing in freezer. Put in a plastic zip-top bag until completely frozen.
  • Flaxseed meal is a powder made from ground flaxseeds. It's high in fiber and a good source of Omega-3 fatty acids.

Hi, April! I’m sorry for the delay in replying. It’s always best to avoid as many chemicals and additives while on the Daniel Fast. Some brands of nut milk are healthier than others, so try to find the brands that are the purest as far as ingredients. The almond milk you are using is acceptable; however, you might take a look at other brands to see if you can find something better. Thanks for your question!

Thank you for your wonderful recipes! I am allergic to almonds. What would you recommend to substitute?

Are you referring to the use of almond milk? The recipe calls for any non-dairy milk, so you can use rice milk, cashew milk, soy milk, etc. Thanks for your question!

Hi Kristen, I am a diabetic doing the Daniel Fast for the first time and thanks to your recipes & smoothies I have been quite successful! Prior to finding your site, I just wasn’t sure what I could eat and still maintain a healthy glycemic level so I wasn’t able to join my church in the fast. Now I have so many ideas to incorporate into my meal planning! God’s richest blessings to you for all you do to assist us who desire to keep our bodies healthy in obedience to Him!

You can substitute any fruit you like! The bananas add a nice, creamy texture to the smoothie. You can also add a little avocado to get a similar result.

Would it be OK to use just regular flax seeds instead of the flax seed meal? Seems you would get the same amount of fiber. Thank you.

From the Mayo Clinic: “Most nutrition experts recommend ground over whole flaxseed because the ground form is easier for your body to digest. Whole flaxseed may pass through your intestine undigested, which means you won’t get all the benefits.” 🙂

I have been told that it is better to grind your own flaxseeds because the nutritional value is lost when you are using ground flaxseeds as you don’t know how long it was since they were processed. I buy flaxseeds and keep in the refrigerator. I love using flaxseed oil on salads and baked potato.

Hi, Donna! Yes, that’s a great suggestion. What type of grinder do you use?
