It’s good news that sometimes eating well can feel like cheating.  Like when you make something that’s tasty and healthy like this Strawberry Peach Smoothie.  Chock full of healthy yogurt, it even has two servings of fruit!  How good is that!

Even better, in the last days of winter, starting the day with fruit can feel like a breath of spring. 

Of course I first made this in late summer when fresh peaches were practically dripping from the trees.  But frozen fruit is also great for getting fruity goodness into your life. All year round!  Read more
