Healthy smoothie recipes

I'm pretty terrible at cooking/recipes. But my go-to smoothie is:

1 frozen banana (chopped up pre-freezing)
2/3 cup of frozen strawberries
1 scoop of Aria protein powder
and honey to sweeten a bit
fill with water.

It's yummy, super filling, simple, and only about 250 calories. Of course, strawberry-banana is my favorite flavor. A lot of people prefer to use almond milk or coconut milk to fill, but I hate the taste. Water is good for me, and the frozen fruits still make it thick so that I don't feel like I'm drinking fruity water. Some people also substitute greek/strained yogurts to thicken.

It's pretty sweet, too, which is nice for me since I have a hardcore sweet tooth.

You should really get a magic bullet!! They are so easy to make smoothies in!

I buy a bag of frozen mixed fruit no sugar added.

Orange Juice - Tropicana Trop 50

Total calories for this smoothie is 120!

Berry Smoothie

1/2 cup Vanilla Yogurt (Greek yogurt, or your favorite low-fat yogurt)
1/2 Skim Milk
1 cup frozen raspberries, or frozen strawberries/blueberries, ect.
1 packet Splenda

Blend well. Sometimes, I run it through a strainer to get the raspberry seeds out.

Silk Almond Milk (35 calories per cup); mixed frozen berries, 1 banana, Trader Joe's tart frozen yogurt, Trader Joe's mango sorbet, 1 scoop vanilla bean ON platinum hydro builder.

This sounds great! Always looking for low cal ideas! Would make a great breakfast too! Thanks for posting!

My smoothies are 1 cup frozen fruit (favorite is dole tropical blend), 1/2 cup silk light soy milk, 1/2 cup nonfat plain yogurt or greek yogurt, and 2 tbsp sf flavored torani or davinci syrup. with the tropical blend, my favorite syrup is orange, with the mixed berries, my favorite is chocolate macadamia nut.

I use 1 cup fruit so i can get my full fruit serving in for the day. Using yogurt and milk gets 2 dairy servings for the day. the greek yogurt provides more protein than regular yogurt, but i was able to get a big tub of nancy's organic plain nonfat yogurt for pretty cheap, so that worked better for me, if i can make it to costco, i'll grab large tubs of greek yogurt there. the reason i use soy milk is i have a slight milk allergy, so when i use regular nonfat milk and yogurt, i break out, but using soy milk and yogurt seems fine. That's why i do what i do, but smoothies are pretty versatile as you can see and you can fit them in your day any way you like!

I use 1/2 cup greek yogurt, 1 cup Dole mixed frozen fruit, 1/2 a fresh or frozen banana cut in chunks, and a little of whatever juice I have in the refrigerator or a little skim milk. '

I have also found lots of smoothie recipes on EatingWell.com.

Spinach, pineapple, banana, milk, orange juice, yogurt. That was one of my favourite combos. I don't have specific amounts because I just threw random amounts in until it was the right consistency.

My basic smoothie always starts with spinach and milk/yogurt and banana. Then I just add in random fruits (I've done frozen strawberries, pineapple, plum, peach, saskatoon berries, blueberries) and I like to add in vanilla extract, flaxseeds, cinnamon, peanut butter, coconut oil, etc.
