Blender Foods and Juices!!

Alyssadleon2 · December 2016

Hey everyone! (:
I'm wanting to make more on the go smoothies, shakes, and other " breakfast" juices & blended options. My friends got us a little blender you can take with you after use. I don't have any recipes to go off of, so any recipes for this kind of thing would be great!

Especially if it's also sweet. Also, are there any extra ingredients besides protien powder I can throw in for growing muscle??

Nothing better than a good juice to start the day or even as a filler between meals, anything that is high in Protein like spinich is perfect, although you need to blend in some sweetness to counter act the blandness of spinich. i find apple's, carrott, beetroot and a little bit of ginger work well together

Thanks! I will definitely try that!

A couple of my go-to protein shakes (on the rare occasion I drink them). Amounts are to your own liking and goals:

milk
banana
peanut butter
protein powder

milk
banana
frozen berries
protein powder

Here's my go-to green smoothie recipe. I change up the leafy greens week-to-week (usually kale, spinach, swiss chard collards or romaine, sometimes supplemented w/ bok-choy, dandelion greens, etc). It makes ~1.25 liters, so you might have to adjust the quantities to fit your blender. As a a general rule of thumb, I usually strive for a 3:2 ratio of veg to fruit.

1.75 cup, Water
0.50 cup, Orange juice - Raw
2 tbsp, Chia Seed
150 g, Leafy greens
100 g, Cucumbers
0.27 cup, Frozen Dark Sweet Cherries
0.38 Cup, Organic Mixed Berry Blend
40 g, Arugula, raw
60 g (1 slice), Sliced Fresh Del Monte Gold Pineapple Spears
7.00 g, Ginger root - Raw
125.00 g, Celery, raw
120 g (14 Pieces), Mango Chunks (Frozen)

I'm definitely going to try it with some berries and banana! Looks simple enough!

I love how it cuts my comment. Anyway, I like how you add chia seeds! I'm going to add either that or hemp seeds into my smoothies.
