August Family Fun Recipe: Peach Pie Smoothie

Celebrate Family Fun Month and National Peach month this August!

In celebration of Family Fun Month, we’re sharing one family-friendly recipe each Friday. Cooking doesn’t have to feel like a chore, it can also be a time for you and your loved ones to learn and have fun together. Your family will gain basic cooking and nutrition skills that they can use for the rest of their lives. And because we’re incorporating food and beverage products that can be recycled in every recipe, your family will learn how to take care of their bodies and the planet at the same time. It’s also National Peach Month, so we’re kicking off this four-part series with this Peach Pie Smoothie. Enjoy!

Ingredients for 2 cups:
1/2 cup nonfat or 1 percent low-fat milk in a carton
1/2 cup nonfat plain yogurt
1 cup frozen unsweetened peaches
1 tablespoon honey, plus more to taste
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch ground nutmeg
Pinch ground ginger

Blend it all together and encourage your family to toss the milk carton in the recycling bin once it’s empty.
