I've made a few attempts at making smoothies and they never seem to come out right. Any recipe suggestions are greatly appreciated!!

    You can't miss with a frozen banana, a scoop of protein powder, a T of peanut butter, and a cup of coconut milk. Yum! My favorite dinner smoothie. Sometimes I throw some mango in too.

    Had a great green smoothie for lunch today.

    Green Smoothie Recipe
    2 handfuls baby spinach
    1 cup yogurt (I used Light and Fit Vanilla)
    1 cup water
    1 cup pineapple chunks
    2 bananas

    I used frozen bananas and mixed in some ice cubes with the water. Very tasty and filling.

    My basic smoothie is a cup of unsweetened almond milk, 1 tbs peanut butter, 1 scoop of protein powder. To that I usually add baby spinach or frozen blueberries, sometimes both. You can add any fruit you like, yogurt, and flavorings. I sometimes add some instant coffee for flavor and a caffeine hit.

    My two favs are super easy. I like to crush ice with them cause I like that texture but anways.

    1) I blend ice, and orange, a cup of vanilla yogurt, and a scoop of van. protein powder.

    2) Ice, grapes (About a cup) and banana and the protein powder.

    If I have spinach or kale around I usually throw in a handful into either and you can't taste it or feel it with the ice. MmmMmm
