Anyone have some good smoothie recipes?!
Anyone have some good smoothie recipes?
Any kinds are fine. I like strawberry, banana, kiwi, apple, romaine lettuce. I'm also interested in dairy-free smoothies..Thanks!
Answers:
i always go through my fridge every few days and throw the fruit that is starting to go soft into baggies and on into the freezer.
that way, when i want a smoothie, i can just grab them out of the freezer and they're ready to go.
i also add yogurt, honey, and a little ice plus some fruit juice- pulse and go.
if you don't want dairy in your smoothie, just add fruit juice, honey or sugar (i dissolve it in water first). plus- i LOVE sparkling water in my smoothies. gives it a nice little kick of bubbles without being too sweet.
you really don't need recipes for smoothies- just add any fruits and veggies that sound good, plus juice, sweeteners, flavor (like ginger or mint), and go!
strawberry, blueberry, pineapple, then add some ice and some cranberry juice.
(you can then add alcohol if its a weekend smoothie...

1 banana, frozen and chunked
1 cup frozen raspberries
3/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup vanilla yogurt
DIRECTIONS
In a blender, combine banana, raspberries, orange juice and yogurt. Blend until smooth. Pour into glasses and serve.
1 frozen banana, sliced (great when bananas start to get too ripe, just toss them with skins into the freezer)
1/2 cup strawberry yogurt
1/4 (more or less) of 2% milk
Blend and voila ! Tastes better than a traditional milkshake and is much better for you.
It sounds simple but it's oh so good!
Add frozen banana chunks, low-fat strawberry banana yogurt, skim milk, and splena sweetener if needed. It's healthy and sooo creamy and yummy! :)
