Green Shake Help!!

marbat

Hi There! Need some help in some new and easy Green Shakes I want to start incorporating in my diet. I have done Spinach, bananas, frozen fruit with water but not to great.

What are some substitutions for the water to add some flavor?

Almond milk, coconut milk or coconut water

Also use a mix of fresh and or frozen fruit. I find fresh fruit has more flavor, but I enjoy the consistency of the smoothie when I use frozen fruit

Light orange juice, light cranberry juice or 15 calorie juice

marbat

I like spinach with an apple. Ginger root or celery will also flavor the whole shake (not a fan of the ginger but its strong!)

I use Frozen Strawberries, Blueberries, Cranberries then add almond milk flax seed chia seed Hemp hearts and what ever vegetables I want beets and beet greens are good

fruitydelicious

I add a couple spoonfuls of Greek yogurt to add protein - maybe add some fresh fruit juice to help with flavor

When I make a green smoothie I use coconut water, greens what ever you want, pineapple or banana for the sweetness then some other fruit that I like. Oh and I do add greek yogurt too.

I do 4 strawberries, handful blueberries, 1 cup kale, 1 scoop protein powder, 1 cup unsweetened almond milk and half a banana.

I use tea instead of water. I also add plain greek yogurt. Oh and I freeze all my fruit so I don't "dilute" any flavor with ice. Here's an example of one of my smoothies:
1/2 banana
1/2 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries and raspberries)
1 kiwi
1/2 cup celery
1/2 cup spinach
1tbsp chia & flax seeds
1/4 cup plain greek yogurt
1-2 bags of Tazo Ginger Green tea (brewed in 3/4 cup of water, then cooled with some ice-cubes to make 1 cup)
1tsp Truvia

If you use spinach, banana, whatever milk you like, a chocolate protein powder or some cacao or cocoa powder, and peanut butter or PB2 you will get...a peanut butter cup shake.

TRY IT NOW.

Fresh spinach, a medium banana, milk of your choice, a tbsp of peanut butter, cinnamon, and ice. You can freeze the banana after slicing it to avoid having to add ice. I drink this pretty regularly.. be judicious with the spinach and throw a ton in there! I usually use about three large handfuls of farm fresh spinach (so the stems are included).

Try chilled green tea as an addition.
