These refreshing orange creamsicle smoothies taste just like the ice cream bar, but they're healthy enough to serve for breakfast.

Ingredients

  • 1 (11-ounce) can mandarin oranges in juice
  • 1/2 cup pineapple (frozen chunks)
  • 1/2 cup yogurt (vanilla, or vanilla soy yogurt)
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 cup soy milk (vanilla)

Steps to Make It

  1. Gather the ingredients.

  2. Open can of oranges and drain.

  3. Place in a zip-top plastic bag and freeze several hours.

  4. Place the frozen oranges and pineapple chunks in the bottom of a blender, Vita-Mix, or food processor.

  5. Add the remaining ingredients in the order listed. Puree until the mixture reaches the texture of a milkshake. Add more ice, if desired, until an icy consistency is achieved.

  6. Serve and enjoy!

Tip

  • If you want to get that icy, milkshake texture, it's best to freeze the mandarin oranges first. But if you're in a hurry, you can use the oranges right out of the can and add more ice.
