Papaya Tangerine Smoothie

Today's breakfast was a refreshing flavor treat of creamy, luscious papaya. I added tangerine, coconut milk, and strawberries for a WOW! Intensely luscious smoothie! Look for the healthy organic, non-GMO papaya with real seeds, as many papayas are genetically modified. (If they have NO SEEDS, how can they reproduce?)

Instead of dairy, the ingredients are coconut butter, lemon, nutritional yeast, and optional Vitamin C for a sharp, aged cheese flavor. BTW I ...
