Before you start

A blender or food processor will be very useful for this recipe.

Method

  1. Place the cantaloupe pieces in a food processor or blender. Add the milk and vanilla.
  2. Process on the highest speed until a well-blended purée forms, about 15 seconds, stopping to scrape down the sides of the container once or twice. Incorporate the tofu then serve.
  3. For a denser smoothie, increase the amount of tofu and reduce the milk.
