    1 container of Kroger carb master vanilla chai yogurt
    1 cup Kirkland mixed berries

    I don't know that I have a favorite. Mine are random flavors, but the base remains the same.

    Any type of fruit
    1 cup of lowfat yogurt
    Half a package instant oatmeal, flavored or not.
    1/4 cup milk. Almond or regular
    baby spinach. (handful)

    blend it all up and it's breakfast time.

    handful of spinach
    handful of kale
    a couple of mint leaves
    squeeze of fresh lemon juice
    half a banana
    1/2 cup of frozen sweet cherries or frozen peaches (really, you could do any fruit)
    1 cup liquid (I do 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk and 1/2 cup of whatever fresh juice I have in the house)

    I am a smoothie-a-day person, and this one is always my favorite. I make about 20 freezer bags at a time with everything except the liquid (spinach, kale, mint and lemon juice in blended ice cube form) and just pull one out every morning, add the liquid, blend, and go.

    check out incrediblesmoothies.com They have lots of "green" smoothie recipes on there.

    I found this one and I like it very much

    1 banana
    1 cup blueberries (I'm using frozen because that's what I have available)
    1/2 - 1 cup water
    1 stalk celery (I only use 1/3 - 1/2 stalk because I don't really care for celery)
    2 cups spinach (add this last)

    It's great, and you don't even taste the spinach~

    It sounds a little odd but this is my favorite right now. I will add the PB if I need a little protein.

    1c Original Almond Milk
    1c. Costco 3 berry mix
    2c. Baby Spinach
    1tbs Chia Seed
    1tbs Peanut Butter

    With the PB it's 305 calories 210 without.

    Spinach
    Strawberries
    Watermelon
    Flax seeds

    I normally fill it about half way with spinach and half with fruit then add a table spoon or two of flax seeds. Throw in a bit of water so it will mix nicely and I normally add some chunks of ice near the end just to make it nice and cold (though I'm sure you could just use frozen strawberries instead). It comes out so good I love it! Can't wait to see the watermelons out again to make more.

    Dark chocolate almond milk (this is the key, it makes everything awesome)
    banana
    peanut butter
    spinach

    I haven't made in a while because I killed my blender. I actually drank part of the gasket that came loose and got mixed into the smoothie, but it was so delicious I had no idea. I never measured I just made it until it looked right

    I made some that I like lately :)

    1 banana
    a handful raspberries
    yogurt
    Cacao nibs(little pieces of raw cocoa beans... Amazing source of anti oxidants and healthy too)
    teaspoon coconut oil(makes smoothies creamy... interesting consistency.

    Also this:

    Orange - peeled or freshly squeezed orange juice(depends on where you want the skin or not)
    about 1 cup carrot...
    a teaspoon ginger or two
    aaannnd... flax seeds :D

    I liked it! x_x But so sugary due to many fruits.
