    I didn't have time to read all the other posts (although I can't wait to come back and get some ideas!) but I do one with one cup of either spinach or kale, one cup of almond or coconut milk, 1/2 a banana, a scoop of vanilla protein powder and sometimes strawberries or blueberries. Sooooo good!

    1 cup Silk (any flavor), 1 scoop chocolate protein powder, 1 small banana, 1/4-1/2 cup frozen blueberries and/or mixed berries. Blend very well. I use a magic bullet, so this is only one serving, usually for breakfast. The frozen berries make it thick.

    I found this recently and it is surprisingly tasty and creamy while being high in protein and good vitamins. And you cannot taste the cottage cheese at all. I was hesitant as I'm not a fan of cottage cheese but really all it does is make the shake super creamy.

    2 cups Fresh spinach
    1/2 cup Low fat cottage cheese
    1/4 cup Vanilla or plain protein powder (I use vanialla)
    2-3 drops Peppermint extract (1/8 tsp for stronger peppermint taste)
    1-3 pkts Packets of stevia or sweetener of choice (or to taste. I find mine is sweet enough that I do not need to add sweetener)
    5-10 Ice cubes (more or less depending on how thick you like it)
    1/2-1 cup Water or milk of choice (I use almond)

    Blend it all together and enjoy.

    I have two that I use and I don't vary much because I like them so much

    1 cup Blue diamond Almond breeze (almond/coconut) UNSWEETENED - very important
    1 4oz musselmans lite cinnamon applesauce
    1/2 cup unsweetened canned peaches
    2 tbsps. FLAX USA flaxseed
    4 ice cubes.

    the other smoothie I make is I substitute 3 frozen strawberries (fresh but I froze myself) for the peaches.
    Very inexpensive and you dont' have to worry about fruit being in season etc.

    I stopped putting bananas in my smoothies as it takes over the flavor. Sometimes I will make a smoothie with 1/2 banana and I fresh orange and the almond milk if I want the "orange Julius" smoothie

    Many people think you can throw in a bunch of fruit, fruit juice milk and it will be healthy, however be sure to watch the sugar. Too much sugar turns to fat.

    I have a smoothie every other day with my boiled egg whites for breakfast

    good luck!

    I forgot to add that I sometimes buy kale and grind up a leaf or two of that in the smoothie. It does change the flavor though and I don't like it as well, but Kale is very healthy!

    Looking to try out some smoothies so please post any recipes you have! Looking for ones using fruit and things you usually have at home (bananas, yoghurt etc) but willing to give anything a go! :)

    I used to use bananas in all my smoothies but I would advise against it now. It's a high carb fruit and doesn't really have enough micro nutrients to justify the calories. As for a recipe, here's something you can do with almost all the recipes you try:

    For the liquid base that is needed for blending, use a half cup of non-fat plain greek yogurt instead + a little non-sugar sweetener to balance out the tartness. You get a creamy texture smoothy while adding in extra protein.
