Hi everyone,

i like home made smoothies but all of them I know are sweet (fruity) even if i add some kale or broccoli.

Do you know any salty smoothie?

Thanks

    I haven't personally tried any of these but a simple search for salty smoothie gives many results, here's one:

    In my opinion you hit the nail on the head, every smoothie you make is sweet because they all have fruit in them. If you make a completely veggie based smoothie without any fruit or sweetener it won't be sweet. I have done a few spinach and broccoli based smoothies with a few veggies and some fat free greek yogurt and I was happy with the outcome.

    interesting recipes. I also tend to put mint into vegetable smoothies, it gives it a good taste without the sweetener. I also like to add come chili or jalapeno for a little kick if you are a fan of spice.

    I would also recommend adding plain greek yogurt, cottage cheese or unflavoured whey protein isolate to the smoothie for protein/healthy fats.
