Banana Yam Smoothie

(4 servings)

  • 1 medium yam
  • 1 cup low-fat vanilla yogurt
  • 1 cup low-fat milk
  • 1 cup ice cubes
  • 1 teaspoon white sugar
  • 1 medium banana - sliced
Prick yam with a fork, and place on a plate. Cook in the microwave for 8 to 10 minutes, turning once, until tender. Cool, peel and dice.

Combine the yam, yogurt, milk, ice cubes, sugar and banana in the container of a blender. Blend until smooth.


I thought a yam smoothie sounded wierd too until I tried it. I like it now. Not low-carb, but provides a nice morning boost.
