Hi Everyone!
I love making smoothies as a meal as often as possible. I love all sorts of smoothies (green, fruit, ect) but I've run out of ideas for smoothies and would like some new suggestions. If anyone has any recipes they make or ones they enjoy, please let me know! If you know the calorie count, that would be helpful as well. Thank you! :)

    One of my favs:

    1/2 cup vanilla unsweetened almond milk
    2-3 vanilla unsweetened almond milk ice cubes
    2 tablespoons vanilla non-fat Greek yogurt (or any flavor you prefer)
    1/2 pack of a 100 calorie pack of dark chocolate roasted almonds
    2 dried figs (soaked in water to soften)
    1 tablespoon chia seeds
    1 tablespoon flax seeds
    1 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder
    1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
    1 tablespoon Jiffy Whipped chocolate peanut butter
    a few semi-sweet chocolate chips

    blend all together for about 2 minutes - makes 1 serving. Delicious.

    Last night I made this (not a smoothie, more like a Wendy's Frostie):

    1 frozen banana
    1/4 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
    1 tablespoon almond butter
    1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
    a few semi-sweet chocolate chips

    blend all together. Yum !

    MMmm! Both recipes look delicious and definitely hit the sweet spot if I'm craving that. I have more ingredients at the moment to do this one, so I'll probably try this out in the next few days. Thank you for the recipes! :)
