i recently tried a strawberry spinach smoothie and it was awesome....could not taste the spinach at all. So i was wondering if anyone has any more smoothie recipes for someone who hates the taste of vegetables...plus i also find it hard to get in extra calories after all my workouts....i going out to buy a nice blender and wanting to put it to good use!

    Frozen kale and frozen peas go well in smoothies too.

    cucumber is easy and refreshing - esp with lime or lemon. Spinach is one of the easiest to disguise, it's quite mild. Sometimes the colors can be - alarming - but once you get past that.

    Zucchini and squash are other vegetables that have no taste, like Spinach. Mix with any fruit (banana are best to a dominating flavor).

    I just started using kale. First experiences good. Last not so. I think I will try freezing it. I need it to break down more. Here is a recipe my sis sent me:
    • 1 med-large Banana
    • 1/2 cup Kale
    • 3/4 cup Mango
    • 1 cup Spinach
    • 1/2 cup Pineapple
    • 1/2 cup or one large leaf Collard Greens
    • 1 cup Almond or Coconut Milk
    • 1.25 cup Water
    • 1.25 serving Chocolate (or vanilla) Protein- (1 scoop and a quarter)
    • 5-10 cubes Ice
    • 2 dashes Stevia
