    I have 2 regulars now.

    Mochacino Iced Smoothie
    1 medium banana
    10 ice cubes
    1/2- 3/4 cup milk (fat free to 2% your choice ... I use 2%)
    2 Tbsp Hershey's Chocolate
    1/2 Tbsp instant coffee granules

    This one is under 250 calories and really gets me past the whole I'm addicted to coffee or takes care of my sweet tooth

    Strawberry Blueberry Smoothie

    100 grams fresh blueberries
    150 grams fresh strawberries
    1/2 cup milk
    1 banana
    .about 6 ice cubes

    This one is under 300 calories and the ice with milk almost creates an ice cream smoothness

    Tried the spinach in 2 different smoothies now and love it! I'm doing about 1/2 a cup per smoothie, does this sound right?

    If you want a full serving of spinach in your smoothie it's 1 cup. But you don't taste it with all the fruit.

    2 cups spinach
    1 cup unsweetened almond milk
    1 Tbsp unsweetened peanut butter
    1 frozen banana
    1/2 cup blueberries
    Blend!

    I feel so good after drinking this and I'm full until lunch.

    Do you remember the commercials for Chia Pets? Who knew that the grain used to create crazy characters that grew "hair" before our eyes is considered a super food. According to Dr. Oz it, "delivers the maximum amount of nutrients with minimum calories." The chia seed helps to curb appetitie because it can absorb 12 times its own weight (it swells to make you feel full) and it is packed with fiber, omega fatty acids, calcium, antioxidants and protein. I don't have whey powder but I use 2 tablespoons of ground chia seeds in my bananna smoothie. It doesn't contain as much protein as using the whey powder but it sticks with you a long time!
    1 cup almond milk
    1 bananna
    2 tablespoons cocoa
    2 tablespoons ground chia seeds

    Bump. Need to try some of these.
  • I use a cup of Plain Kefir (rather than Greek yogurt). Add in a few frozen stawberries and blueberries along with a packet of Truvia. Fast and easy and only 137 calories!
