Inspired by Moosewood Restaurant Low-Fat Favorites by the Moosewood
Collective

Because she loves it so much, Annie made this soup for a winter dinner
party. Sitting at the end of her long harvest table after serving it,
she looked up after everyone took their first spoonful, to find that
everyone had turned to stare at her, speechless, until someone found
the words, “What is in this? It is totally, completely, divine!”

Cardamom adds an absolutely priceless touch to this
smooth, sweet soup. Especially heavenly in the winter, bananas and
mangos combine perfectly in texture and flavor to round out this
winner of a soup that is also as good as a smoothie.

1 large ripe mango, peeled and cut into chunks
2 ripe bananas
2 cups orange juice
1/2 cup plain nonfat yogurt
1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/4 cup pure maple syrup (optional)

Add all the ingredients to a blender or food processor, and puree.
Test taste, adding more sweetener if desired.
