Recipe: High-Fibre Peach Ginger Smoothie

by | Jun 10, 2026

This High-Fibre Peach Ginger Smoothie is a subtly warming, anti-inflammatory take on a high-fibre breakfast smoothie. Frozen peaches bring a natural sweetness, fresh ginger adds a clean bite, and a pinch of turmeric rounds out the anti-inflammatory profile. With 27g of protein and 9g of fibre in just 315 calories, it is one of the lighter options in the smoothie lineup without sacrificing nutritional impact.

Makes 1 serving. Nutrition calculated using unsweetened almond milk. Substituting 2% dairy milk adds ~60 cal and ~6g protein.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt (2%)
  • ½ cup frozen peach slices
  • ½ tsp fresh ginger, grated
  • Pinch of turmeric
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tbsp flax meal
  • ½ scoop vanilla protein powder
  • ¾ cup milk of choice

Optional: Use peach or vanilla-flavoured Greek yogurt instead of plain to enhance the flavour.

Instructions

1. Blend and Serve

Add all ingredients to a blender. Blend on high for 45–60 seconds until smooth and creamy. Pour into a glass and enjoy immediately.

Dietitian Tips

  • Fresh ginger makes a difference. Pre-ground ginger works in a pinch but fresh ginger delivers a brighter, cleaner flavour — grate it directly into the blender. Start with ½ tsp and increase to taste.
  • Turmeric is optional but worth adding. A small pinch does not affect the taste noticeably but contributes curcumin, a well-studied anti-inflammatory compound. Pair it with a crack of black pepper to enhance absorption.
  • This is the lowest-calorie option in the series. At 315 cal with almond milk, this fits well into a calorie-conscious day while still delivering solid protein and fibre numbers.
