We have a blender at work, and I was running late this morning. So I grabbed 2 peaches, a banana and an orange and took them in with me, then made a smoothie using the fruit and a bit of ice. As I was blending up my gorgeous, peach-colored concoction, a co-worker came in to get a Diet Coke. He made a joke about how much healthier mine was, and I couldn't help thinking:

Given the choice between a smooth, delicious fruit drink and a carbonated, chemical-filled soda, I'm so grateful to have fresh, organic fruit!

Anyway, if any of you has a blender at work or is inspired to get a cheap one to keep there, this is a great breakfast when you don't have time to grab it at home. :)

Good morning!

I've wanted to use peaches in smoothies...do you have to skin them first?

Hey, Dahlila! Nope, I threw them in skin and all. I blended everything really well to break down the skins and it turned out great.
