Peach Basil Cottage Cheese Smoothie

I love this flavor combination! Peaches and cottage cheese are a classic pairing while the basil adds a slightly peppery taste. Look for bags of frozen fruit on sale to keep in the freezer just for smoothies or for a quick snack. If you don’t have fresh basil, a dash of cinnamon would also complement the “peaches and cream” flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • ½ cup milk (cow’s milk, soy or nut)
  • ½ banana, frozen
  • 1 cup frozen peaches
  • 1 tsp fresh basil, chopped
  • ¼ tsp vanilla extract

Blend all ingredients in a blender on high speed until smooth. Divide between two glasses and serve immediately.
