2 years ago we posted Cameron's Prickly Pear Slush...but I wasn't a huge fan. It just had a funny aftertaste; he loved it though. Today I played around until I had a Prickly Pear Raspberry Smoothie that I LOVE.
Ingredients
- 1/2 c. frozen unsweetened raspberries
- 1/2 c. prickly pear fruit puree
- 1 c. plain yogurt
- About 2-3 TBS of water
- About 1-2 tsp. olive oil (I know...seems weird, but your body needs good oils in it and olive oil's not bad...if you have sunflower oil that works great too)
- Sweetener (sugar, truvia, jam, whatever you want to use)
- And then I added a tiny squirt of Berry Pomegranate MiO to help cancel out the prickly pear aftertaste (I love the initial prickly pear taste...it's the aftertaste that's a little odd)
- If you have prickly pear juice and not the puree, then omit the water in this recipe
Combine all ingredients in the blender and blend till smooth. I accidentally added too much water so I had to add a small handful more of frozen raspberries to give it the right consistency.
This looks really good! This is Ethan by the way.
