A healthy smoothie… a great way to end the week.

I bought a big bag of oranges… so now I am trying to find ways to use them all up. I actually wanted just a couple of oranges, but it was more expensive to buy the oranges individually than to buy a whole bag.

Really it shouldn’t be that hard to use them up in recipes. I love baking with oranges… as you saw in my last post with the orange and cinnamon scones.

With the weather finally starting to warm up, I thought it would be a great opportunity to make some smoothies. Plus the fact that it was Friday, I couldn’t think of a better way to end the week than with a nice healthy drink.

Since we loved the orange and cinnamon scones that I mention earlier I decided to slip a little cinnamon into this smoothie. I am a big fan when it comes to cinnamon and was curious if it would taste as yummy in the smoothie as it did in the scones.

I had mixed reactions on this. My daughters who were at our house when I made this, loved the cinnamon. As for Mike he was not quite as sure as they were, he thought it was just okay. As for me I thought it was a great addition to the orange smoothie.

Have you had cinnamon in an orange smoothieย before? What do you think?

Ingredients

  • 2 cups frozen orange segments
  • 2 cups orange juice
  • 1/2 cup vanilla yogurt

Instructions

  • Peel and break the orange segments apart. Place in plastic bag and freeze. I froze mine for about 8 hours.

Notes

If you prefer you can add the cinnamon at the end of the blending process and add the cinnamon to taste.

    Yeah, it always kills me when I can get a big bag of something cheaper than 2 or 3. Weird, isn’t it? And I can never resist buying the bag either! Anyway, terrific idea for a smoothie — really like this. Thanks.
