Whats your best smoothie?

I make a pumpkin smoothie every day.

1/2 cup pumpkin
1 small banana
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla flavoring
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Sounds so good. Here's mine if nobody has posted yet:

1 c Almond milk
1 frozen banana (small)
1 TB Creamy peanut butter
1 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 packet stevia

I don't know how it's made, but it's banana, orange, and pineapple. I always just throw all kinds of random fruit in the blender and see what happens!

My AM smoothie is great because it gives me the caffeine boost without all the sugar:

1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder
1/2 a frozen banana
1 tbsp psyillum whole husk
1 tsp ground cinnamon
4 oz vanilla coffee concentrate (I buy Cool Brew, but you can make your own with really strong coffee and freeze into cubes.)
2 oz more of water and some ice cubes.

196 calories.

I am definitely not looking for a low calorie smoothie when I make them, but it delicious and filling when you are on the run and need a meal replacement:

A Bit of Sugar Free Maple Syrup
1 Banana
Tablespoon of Peanut Butter
Cup of Soy Milk
Hemp Protein Powder

canned pumpkin? or ...?

1 scoop chocolate protein powder
4 oz cottage cheese
1 cup cold brewed coffee
Spends and ice to taste

Cold brewed coffee
1 pound coffee
1 gallon water
Mix & put in frig for 24 hours
Strain through cheese cloth.

This makes a really smooth coffee concentrate.

I don't have one particular favorite but I add 2 handfuls of spinach to any smoothie and love it!

I have been using Pb2 in my smoothies and I am loving it. It is powdered peanut butter. Only 45 calories for 2 Tblsp, and it tastes yummy with half a banana, flavorless protein powder, 1 cup of almond coconut milk and some ice. You can also add a tsp of cocoa powder if you want. Only about 210 calories.

I use this one for breakfast everyday!

8 oz of water
6 frozen unsweetened strawberries (or any fruit of your choice)
1/4 tsp of maca powder
1 scoop of chocolate whey protein powder

This is sooooo yummy! I love waking up each morning knowing that I get to have this shake!

Water
Handful Almonds
3 dates
Pinch sea salt
1 Frozen Banana
1-2 TB almond butter
1TSP cinnamon and vanilla

You can use almond milk instead of almonds and water if you want.

1 Large Banana
3/4 cup Almond Milk
1/4 cup Dry Oatmeal
1 tsp honey
Blend for 1-2 minutes until smooth
So delicious and filling!

I like Rachael Ray's Green Machine Avocado Smoothie. Here's her recipe:

1 cup plain nonfat yogurt
1 ripe avocado, coarsely chopped
1 small bunch spinach (about 2 cups of leaves), coarsely chopped
1/2 small bunch watercress (about 1 cups of leaves), coarsely chopped
A handful of seedless green grapes (about 1/2 cup)
A handful of flat leaf parsley or kale, chopped (about 1/4 cup)
1 cup ice cubes
3/4 to 1 cup water or orange juice
2-3 tablespoons agave syrup or honey, as needed


I have since modified her version to use Greek nonfat honey yogurt instead of plain yogurt and to add dandelions (about 1 cup). I don't use ice cubes or agave syrup/honey. A little water is necessary because it will be quite thick in consistency.
