I Got Lucky Smoothie
- 6 ounces Greek yogurt
- 1 cara orange, supreme
- 1/2 avocado
- Juice of 1/4 lime
- 1/4 teaspoon sea or kosher salt
- Healthy pinch of cumin
- Honey or agave nectar, if desired
- This is so worth the effort of cutting a supreme of the orange. It's a frilly French term for basically removing the top and bottom ends of the peel, then removing the rind and pith with a series of curving, vertical cuts, then cutting between the membranes to remove just the orange segments. It gets juice everywhere, and you'll want to be sure you start with a sharp knife. It's worth every step. Your smoothie won't taste like it has pieces of pureed plastic in it. Oh, and be sure to squeeze all the juice out of the membranes right into the blender.
- Place all ingredients in a blender or bowl of a food processor. Turn it on. Puree until completely smooth (obviously). Taste for seasoning. If you like yours a bit on the sweet side, add a drop of honey or agave nectar.
- Pour into a glass. Mine was almost a custardy consistency, which I loved. It slowed me down, made me linger over each marvelous mouthful.
