Peach Strawberry Smoothie

I wanted to make a peach-strawberry smoothie with silken tofu but I was not coming up with a recipe that sounded good to me, or one that used ingredients that I had on hand. I used this recipe as a starting point then changed the yogurt to tofu, added sweetener and soy milk. This is an awesome smoothie! I made it with honey, vegans use agave syrup or another sweetener.

Peach-Strawberry Silken Tofu Smoothie
8 slices of frozen peaches
10 small frozen strawberries
1/2-1 cup silken tofu, drained
1/2-1 cup vanilla soy milk
sweetener to taste
dash ground cinnamon if desired

Blend until very smooth. Serve immediately.





Vegan Fudge Pops

In this recipe, the Catherine of Food Snob make a vegan chocolate pudding and froze it into pops. Since she says they are the "best fudge pops ever" I knew I had to try them. They are amazing, rich, creamy, smooth and chocolaty....try these!

Chocolate Pudding

1 (12.3 ounce) package silken tofu, drained
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
1 tbsp. vanilla
1/2 cup maple syrup

Blend tofu until very smooth, blend in remaining ingredients. Pour into Bathroom Cups and place Popsicle
Sticks into each one. Freeze for at least 6 hours.


My silken tofu package......don't you think it is pretty? You won't use the whole package of this type, the measurement is for the Mori-Nu "Juice Box" aseptic package. However, it was cheaper to get this bigger package and I can save the leftover tofu for smoothies.
