It’s May and it’s smoothie season.
Forget the protein powders. Forget the yogurt. Tofu is the smoothie star now.
Yep, you read that right- we’re having tofu for breakfast! Trust me, it’s genius. Tofu delivers a creamy texture and a lovely boost of whole-food, plant-based protein and calcium. This version, the Tropical Tofu Smoothie, is tart, sweet and rich. And the nutrient profile is killer. 20 grams of protein and 8 grams of fiber. Badda-bing.
- 8 oz. silken tofu (1/2 package)
- 1 cup unsweetened frozen strawberries
- ½ cup unsweetened frozen pineapple or frozen mango (or ¼ cup of each)
- 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
- 1 cup unsweetened soymilk (or any nondairy milk)
- Juice of ½ a lime
- Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.
