    My favorite green smoothie recipe is:

    -1 banana
    -1/2 cup frozen peaches
    -1/2 cup frozen mango
    -a couple handfuls of spinach
    -coconut water (about 1/2 - 1 cup)

    It tastes very tropical! :)

    I have a cheap blender that sucks at crushing ice. But it does a decent job with frozen fruit and raw spinach.

    I usually do:

    1/2 cup of coconut water
    2 handfuls of spinach
    1/2 cup of blueberries
    scoop of vegan proteins + vanilla protein powder

    so good and I sometimes do mango instead of blueberries but thats really high carb

    One of my favorites and I know it probably will sound gross and I was very hesitant to try it at first but I actually have grown to love this smooothie for breakfast.... Green Peanut Butter and Banana

    1 sliced frozen banana (I will peel and slice a banana the night before and stick it in the freeze overnight)
    1 cup greek vanilla or plain yogurt (I actually have down away with the yogurt to decrease the calories in it)
    1 cup almond breeze vanilla
    1/2 tbsp peanut butter
    1-3 cups baby spinanch (I usually put about 1 to 1.5 cups)

    Blend together and enjoy!!!!!!

    What is your knock off brand of vitamix? I want one so bad, but can't bring myself to spend $400 on it when there seem to be a few options in the less than $200 range.
