One of my favorite things about January is the abundance of citrus popping up in the grocery stores. Just the other day I was in Whole Foods and sweet Texas grapefruit, juicy navel oranges, and gorgeous yellow lemons were on display near the front of the store. Their fresh citrus aroma sucked me in and of course I had to fill my basket full of them. When I got home I knew the first thing I wanted to make with those beautiful navel oranges was an Orange Creamsicle Smoothie!
I don’t talk a lot about the things I miss from Arizona, but aside from my family there is one other thing that I really miss, fresh citrus growing in the backyard. From the time I was a baby until a year and a half ago I have always had some sort of citrus tree growing in my backyard.
Growing up my parents had two orange trees (and still have them to this day) that were always loaded with sweet oranges this time of year. It was so nice to be able to walk outside and grab a couple for eating or juicing whenever I felt like it.
- 3 oranges, peeled
- 1/2 cup plain non fat Greek yogurt
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 tablespoons honey, more if you want it sweeter
- 2 cups ice
- Add all of the ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth.
- Pour into 2 glass and serve immediately.
