11766 Fruity Smoothie Under 5 mins Under 5 mins 2 to 3 servings Thu May 29 05:07:00 -0700 2008 Thu Aug 27 17:16:24 -0700 2009 Easy American CHOW http://www.chow.com/recipes/11766 Fri, 28 Aug 2009 00:16:24 GMT A healthy start to the morning This tofu smoothie makes for a healthy start to the morning. Yes, this smoothie has tofu in it, but don’t let that be a turnoff—it’s only there for texture and the health factor. A blend of fruit, yogurt, and a touch of honey, this drink makes for a tasty breakfast or snack.

What to buy: Silken tofu has a custardlike texture, and is ideal for puréed dishes like sauces and smoothies. It can be found in vacuum-packed, shelf-stable containers in the Asian section of your grocery store.

Game plan: If you’ve made your own regular soft tofu you can use it here, though we prefer this recipe with silken tofu.
