I would love to make my own smoothies but I don't know how.
Probably not that hard but I don't know what all to put in them.
If you have a favorite smoothie recipe, would you please share it with me.
Also do you know how many calories is in it?
I would love a recipe for strawberry smoothie!!!!! mmmmmm

Mine are pretty simple, but I think that they're DELICIOUS.
1 half a banana
1 cup of frozen berries (or fruit)
1.5 tbsp of flax seeds (for omega 3's and other health benefits, they have a 'nutty' flavour to them)
1 cup of trop 50 half calorie half sugar apple juice.0 -
frozen berries, 1/2 banana, 1/2 cup yogurt, 1 or 1/2 cup skim milk (as needed), 1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder, dash of nutmeg. Or skip the protein powder and put in 1 teaspoon of honey.
another fav: banana, 1/2 tablespoon peanut butter, milk as needed and honey. You can add toasted wheat germ to this and it's very tasty and satisfying.0 -

4 - 6 medjoul dates
big handful of english spinach
2-3 bananas depending on size
dash of honey ( 1 - 3 tsps for adult more for kids)
up to 300ml skim milk or low fat yoghurt - your choice
the kids are told its "shrek's snot" and they love it - I add more honey for the kids
green, full of iron and yet has a curiously addictive taste !
try it and you will see0 -

Frozen banana, frozen strawberries and/or blueberries, a few ice cubes, vanilla almond or soy milk. Bit of yogurt if I have it. Some people like to add protein powder.
I find for me smoothies are a treat...pretty calorie dense for a drink and I am hungry pretty quickly after. But sometimes post work out they are a good idea.0 -

In a blender dump:
* 1 cup of skim milk
* A banana
* A scoop of whey protein powder
* About a cup or cup and a half of frozen whole strawberries.
* If you use fresh strawberries, you may want to add some ice for coldness and thickenss
Whizz it up until it's smooth. It's soooo delicious and refreshing, and very good for a start to the day. About 330-360 calories depending on the size of the banana and how much strawberries you use.0 -
Also, I have one of those "magic bullet" blenders of infomercial fame and they work really well for single size smoothies. Makes portion control easier if you are just making enough for one person.0

Not sure about Kale since it can be kind of bitter, but you can add baby spinach w/o tasting it. It will turn a smoothie a funky color though.0 -

1 banana - 50g
30g raw rolled oats
1 tsp honey
1 tsp minced/pureed ginger

I put baby spinach in my smoothies if I'm using frozen blueberries and mango. Mango is high in sugar so it’s guaranteed not to taste like spinach and frozen blueberries make it a purple smoothie not green. If you use fresh blueberries, it will be freckled and grey in colour, not very pretty.
Trust me, you CANNOT taste the spinach!0 -
1/2c frozen strawberries
1/2c frozen blueberries
1/2c frozen mango or peach
1 banana
1c soy milk
1/2c carrot juice
1/2c pomegranite juice
1 tbsp peanut butter
makes 2 servings - 260 cals ea.
If you're making a fruit smoothie try to use as many colors as possible, different colors = different vitamins.
I use frozen fruit because I hear frozen retains more vitamins, plus it makes my smoothie kind of frozen without using ice.0 -
I supplement whey protein and this is what I have most mornings. VERY yummy.
Gnc - 100% Whey Vanilla Protein - 1 scoop
1 Cup Strawberries and
1/2 A Banana
8 oz. low fat milk, 1% milk, or almond milk.
Hand full of ice.
The calories will vary depending on the milk used but it generally around 250 – 300 calories.
I do P90X and have been using Shakeology as well. VERY yummy too. It curves my appetite, gives me tons of energy and is loaded with nutrients. It truly is one of my best meals of the day like they advertise.0 -
