Recipe of the Week: Matt's Famous Orange Smoothie

Matt is a smoothie-maker extraordinaire...and it's orange season around here! We are surrounded by orange trees in both the front and back yards, so what better way to use oranges than a smoothie for breakfast or a nighttime snack? This is Matt's fantastic recipe - be sure to use a high powered blender or food processor - amount of ingredients may need to be reduced depending on the strength of your blender :o)
