Looking for Supernutritious Smoothie recipes

lizlkbg

Hi all,

My husband has health problems that affect his appetite and he has dropped a lot of weight. We have been told to try making smoothies with isolated whey protein. We've been using the protein, greek yogurt, and frozen bluberries, with either a little fruit juice or coconut water. They are okay, and much better than nothing, but I bet we can do better.

Do you have suggestions and/or recipes?

Thanks!

I use chocolate or vanilla whey protein for all of my smoothies. I usually throw in a banana, peanut butter, flax seeds or chia seeds, raw spinach (can't even taste it). In the vanilla ones I usually use frozen berries, I've even thrown in 1/2 an avocado before and that makes them really creamy/ smooth (yummy)!!! Just experiment with different things, I make a pumpkin smoothie with vanilla protein powder, 1/2 cup canned pumpkin, 1/2 banana, 1 cup almond milk, and flavor with nutmeg and cinnamon, mmmmmmm.
