Last week’s CSA included a strange looking melon I had never seen before. It one of the things I love about the CSA program, getting to know new foods. This melon, I’ve come to find out, was a Galia melon. Its taste is like a cross between a cantaloupe and a honeydew… very sweet! I cut up the melon and ended up with a very large bowl of fruit. After a few days I realized we weren’t going to finish it all so I did what I do with all my fruit in order to preserve it: stuck it in the freezer. Then I came up with a quick and easy smoothie recipe that I can continue to make during the week.
Melon Smoothie Recipe
- 1 cup frozen melon
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp Agave nectar (to taste)
- A dash of cinnamon
Combine all ingredients in a high speed blender, enjoy!
How refreshing! I have never heard to that kind of melon before either. Thanks for enlightening me 🙂
Come and add this delicious smoothie to this week’s CSA link party…http://inherchucks.com/2012/08/02/whats-in-the-box-37/. See you there!
