Healthy fruity drinks recipe - Papaya Yogurt Drink

A couple of days ago, I bough a huge papaya at $2.99 at the supermarket. I always pick the biggest one when they go by a fixed price. This one I picked weighted almost 3 pounds! I know we can't finish the whole thing in one shot so I made a drink out of it.

Ingredients
1/2 papaya, 1/2 grapefruit, 2 cup drink yogurt (Yoplait), maple syrup or honey to taste

Steps:
Blend all the ingredients using a blender. Put ice cubes and maple syrup to taste after blending.

Facts about papayas
Papaya has papain, a natural digestive aid which breaks down protein and cleanses digestive tracks. Great food for people who are trying to lose weight. It's also rich in vitamin C, folate, and potassium. It has 30% more vitamin C and 50% more potassium than an orange.

  1. I made this drink with replacing grapefruit juice with orange juice since I didn't have any and it turned out great. I will be making it again for sure.... :)
