Smoothies - w/ no banana's

I know you want it before your workout but I have a breakfast smoothie that I make.
1/3 cup of non fat plain yogurt
1/2 cup of mixed berries (either strawberries or blueberries or both!)
1 scoop of vanilla protein powder
3 or 4 cubes of ice
1/3 cup of green tea (instead of juice or milk)
It totals up to around 177 calories, so it gives me the option of having a solid food at breakfast aswell!
I used to make something similar with bananas, but found it was way to many calories /: look at my diary, i've had this smoothie for breakfast the past two days!

Thanks abbeysadler, Sounds like a great smoothie with less sugar. :flowerforyou:

Honestly any green tea would do I guess! You can hardly taste the tea if your not a fan, but you need some type of liquid in the blender for the other ingredients to mix!
I would usually use loose leaf tea and then let it steep for a minute. No particular brand but right now i'm using Murchies Premium Tea and I think the exact type is something called Chun Mee?
Any green tea though would work (:

My simple go to smoothie is 1 cup of any flavored yogurt and 1 cup of frozen fruit.. blend and enjoy!!

I am totally addicted to smoothie's! I have one every night for a snack (usually after my workout) and you really can't go wrong. Go to the frozen food section and buy any frozen fruit that you like, or freeze fresh fruit ( if your fruit is frozen you don't have to add ice) I usually do 2 cups of fruit. 1/4 cup of vanilla fat free greek yogurt, 1/4 cup of water, 1/4 cup of milk or tropicana trop 50 orange juice,and blend! i also like to add 2 tbsp of cool whip free on top to sweeten it up (only 15 calories) You can also add a scoop of protein powder, i like Jillian Michael's Vanilla Whey Protein powder.

I was noticing the same thing with the bananas and I have been thinking about getting rid of them in my smoothies. I've been using Almond Milk at 60 calories a cup along with Spinach, Banana, Protein Powder, and a tbsp of Peanut Butter. It's called the Green Monster, and it packs around 400 calories depending on the protein and peanut butter quantities. I may make a pitcher of green tea and start using that as a liquid instead.

I do smoothies every morning. I am extremely sensitive to dairy (no yogurt) and do not like bananas. My winter smoothie is:

2 large organic honeycrisp apples
1/4 package soft or silken organic tofu
2 generous handfulls organic spinach
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
8 oz Goodbelly or 1 package (80 ml) Goodbelly plus (add 8 oz water to the plus)

Yes, it makes a green smoothie, but you cannot taste the spinach.

My summer smoothie is:

1 fresh mango
1/4 fresh organic pineapple
1/4 package soft or silken organic tofu
2 generous handfulls organic spinach
8 oz Goodbelly or 1 package (80 ml) Goodbelly plus (add 8 oz water to the plus)

Cannot wait for summer to get here. Starting to see mangos again in the market, but waiting for the price to come down a bit.
