    I want to start making smoothie's. Does anyone have any good recipes I can use? I really appreciate it :):happy:

    I'm a smoothie fanatic! Here's the link to my blog post about how I make mine and the lessons I learned along the way:

    Questions for Mossonga: where did you get the glass tupperwares listed on your blog?

    They're literally tupperware brand. They only offered them in 16 & 18 oz (and big mixed sets with 12 oz) on their direct website when I looked about 1.5 years ago. I ended up finding the 12 oz glasses on ebay for dirt cheap. Not in the color I wanted but eh I'm over it.

    my new found fave.

    1 cup chocolate almond milk
    1/2 cup strawberries
    1/2 cup bananas
    1/2 150g container of banana tofu dessert.

    I blend this and split it with my wife...150 cal each but tastes like 4 times that.

    This sounds really good... I am trying to sneak healthy food to my SO... this may just work.

    I have a few standards that I enjoy either for breakfast or post-long-run.

    Pina Colada smoothie (this is my fave breakfast!):
    1 container Yoplait Greek coconut flavor yogurt
    3/4 Cup fresh or frozen pineapple chunks
    1/2 Cup Silk coconut milk, or more for thinner consistency (can sub almond milk, cows milk, Coconut Dream, whatever)
    1/2 scoop Sun Warrior raw vegan protein powder, vanilla flavor (any vanilla protein powder would do, I'm sure)
    ice

    Favorite recovery smoothie (tastes like mocha):
    1 frozen banana, broken up
    Glob of chocolate peanut butter
    1/2 cup skim chocolate milk or soy milk
    1/2 cup coffee
    ice

    Tart, refreshing smoothie:
    Frozen or fresh mango (2 to 1 ratio with raspberries)
    Frozen or fresh raspberries
    Frozen banana, broken up
    nob of fresh ginger, crushed
    1/2 cup yogurt
    squeeze of fresh lime juice
    coconut water or regular water (if desired thinner)
    ice

    Have one or two of these a day.

    1 cup Cranberry Cocktail (Blue Menu - Superstore) - 30 calories
    5 large Strawberries - 30 calories
    3 cups of frozen Spinach - 25 calories

    85 calories total.

    I blend for 60 seconds ... comes out creamy army green :)
    can add a pinch of ground Chia powder (Bulk Barn) - helps control hunger.

    Good Luck.
