I do a scoop of chocolate protein powder (mine is 100 calories) half a banana (60grams-ish) and 6-7 ounces of water. The smaller amount of water and the banana give it a nice thick smoothie texture. total it's usually less than 160 calories and I think it's pretty filling0

This is my go-to recipe, which contains the recommended "5 cups"/day of veg and fruit. It yields about 1.25L, which I typically break up into two servings on any given day. When it was originally written, I was using a 2:3 ratio of veg:fruit (I hated vegetables back then), but I've recently changed the ratio to about 3:2, veg:fruit. The leafy greens I use change from week to week (usually kale, spinach or romaine, which is sometimes supplemented with microgreens, baby bok choi, swiss chard or collard greens), but the rest of the ingredients generally remain the same.
14oz Water or Coconut water
6oz Orange Juice
150g Leafy Greens (50g of which is usually arugula because I love the peppery flavor)
125g Celery
100g Cucumber
65g Pineapple
5g Ginger
50g Frozen Berries (Blackberry, Blueberry, Raspberry, Strawberry, or a combination)
40g Frozen Cherries
120g Frozen Mango or Banana
1-2 TBSP Chia Seeds (optional)
Protein Powder (optional)0
