4-5 oz. carrots
1 med apple
1 banana
your choice spinach, kale, or broccoli (aprox. 1 bunch)
4 oz. yogurt (i love greek yogurt, but any lowfat yogurt is just ducky)
2 tbsp peanut butter (optional, but great for some extra calories, protein, and nummy fats)
1 1/2 cups filtered water
1-2 tbsp psyllium husk (optional, but fiber is your friend)
I add a full scoop of vanilla or chocolate mint protein powder to this and I'm good to go
Enjoy!0 -
Pinterest is great for smoothie recipes!
My two quick favorites are:
4 ounces vanilla greek yogurt
1 sliced frozen banana
1 cup almond milk
1 scoop almond butter
fill to the top with baby greens
1/2 cup cooked oatmeal
1 scoop almond butter
2 bananas
2 cups ice
1/2 cup yogurt (I always use greek, but I am sure any would taste fine)
My husband actually tried this oatmeal shake and it was a disaster b/c 2 cups of ice there was no liquid in it. What did we do wrong????0 -

I have been playing around with smoothies off and on for several months now. It is such a great way to pack in more fruits or veggies than you would normally be able to eat at one time, but to drink them all in a juice or a smoothie is much easier!
I just found this recipe for a creamsicle smoothie that I am so excited to try after my zumba class tonight. I already have the fruits in the freezer!
1 large ripe banana, peeled, sliced, and frozen
1/2 small avocado, chopped and frozen
3 Clementines, peeled, broken into segments and frozen
1/2 cup coconut milk
1/2 cup almond milk
1/4 tsp almond extract
1 Medjool date, pitted and roughly chopped
juice from half a small lemon0
