    1 carrot
    1 stalk celery
    2 cups fresh baby greens (spinach, kale, etc)
    3/4 cup frozen mangoes
    3/4 cup frozen three berry mix (blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
    1 medium banana
    1 cup water
    1 tsp Omega oil

    I usually try to blend vegetables into my morning smoothie. From what I have read online, as long as you have 60% fruit and 40% vegetables, you probably won't even taste the vegetables. If you are new to 'green' smoothies you might want to add a little less veggies than this recipe. The dark color of the berries makes this smoothie purple so it is good for people who are off-put by brown or green colored smoothies.

    -one cup raw & organic homemade almond milk
    -one cup organic coffee
    -one organic banana
    -two scoops Sunwarrior vanilla protein
    -half a teaspoon organic cinnamon
    -one tablespoon homemade superfood mix (maca, hemp powder, spirulina, flax meal and chia seeds)

    Optional items:

    -liquid calcium/magnesium
    -bee pollen

    I like to freeze mine and eat it still slightly frozen. Yummy!

    I got a Vitamix for my birthday and am trying to get a lot of use out of it. Also, I eat more fruits and veggies when I do smoothies, so I am always looking for new combinations. What went in your smoothie today?

    Last night, mine was:
    1 cup frozen cherries
    1/2 cup low fat chocolate milk
    1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
    1 tbs chia seeds

    It was really a dessert smoothie. ;) In fact, I think I could freeze it and eat it as ice cream.

    Note to self...get frozen cherries! This sounds amazing!

    Those of you who use water - and/or ice - doesn't the smoothie get, well, watery? I like mine thick! And I have never tried adding vegetables yet.

    I just put in 5 ice cubes and about 2 inches of water and it's still pretty thick. I just have a lot more of other stuff that it doesn't really get watery. Also I have trouble getting it to blend if the water isn't in there.
