I had a smoothie this morning but failed to grab a photo, darn it!

Mine was strawberries, raspberries, vanilla Greek yogurt, almond milk, chia seeds, and a pinch of acai berry powder.

Delicious!

I make a spurlina smoothie every morning with mixed berries, a splash of orange juice and organic yogurt...

thank you for this thread.

For an early lunch -

No picture but it was tasty

1 scoop chocolate protein powder 80 calories
1 tablespoon peanut butter 90 calories
100 grams cafe latte yogurt 35 calories
1 cup water
5 ice cubes



No pic and not a smoothie exactly but cooled us off yesterday after quite a workout

cup or 2 of frozen watermelon
cup or 2 of frozen strawberries
cup or 2 of homemade lemonade
So good, really, really good.

I buy fruit on sale whenever I can and freeze it for future smoothie or frozen drink use.

I am no longer afraid of buying a watermelon that might not be that good. When I cut it and it is less than we had hoped, my wife and I just look at each other and cheerfully say "smoothies!" and in the freezer it goes.

Do any of you use the PB2 powder in your smoothies? That shit is addictive! I even add it to my vanilla greek yogurt for a peanut butter-y mousse

I haven't tried it. I kind of like the fat in peanuts, almonds, and nuts in general so I like peanut butter. I prefer it to the extra sugar that is always added when they take out fat. Plus the fat in the peanut butter or, even better, almond butter keeps me full longer. Plus I prefer organic in peanut butter cause peanuts are a heavily sprayed crop and the toxins easily soak through the porous shell and PB2 is not organic. But as I've said I haven't tried it so I could change my mind. It might not completely replace peanut butter but it could be something to use in cooking, like baking cookies and such. Things I'm not counting on to fill me up and give me energy for the day.

after workout smoothie today:

tablespoon shredded coconut
200 grams coconut yogurt
1 cup of frozen pineapple,(froze it myself fresh)
1/2 cup of water (I like it like that, but one could easily use milk or almond breeze or some such.

is coconut yogurt vegan?? if so great idea! I'm going to try to find some! Thanks :hk11:

This one might be vegan

But that's not the one I had. I had this one and it's quite caloric and high in fat and definitely not vegan. I do love this yogurt though.

Today's Smoothie
 

1 c. nut milk
1/4 c. blanched almonds
1 ripe banana (cut in chunks)
1 scoop protein powder (I'm using Whey this morning)
2 Tbsp. honey
1 c fresh strawberries (or frozen)
1 pear (cut in chunks
1 Tbsp flaxmeal
1/2 c. ice

Gecko Smoothie
 

1/2 c water
1/2 organic cucumber
1/2 c organic green grapes
4 oz frozen organic pineapple chunks
1 c organic greens
mint leaves
1/2 frozen banana slices

Add water first then all other ingredients. Blend 45-60 seconds. About 3 cups of Fabulous. Enjoy

Today I used yellow watermelon, (big handful) a banana, big handful of kale, soymilk, a scoop of vegetarian protein powder(vanilla flavor) mixed up in the blender. YUM!!:hangloose::hangloose::hangloose:

i've been thinking..
 

I made some almond milk today and to be honest had forgotten how honestly delicious the homemade almond milk is! So tomorrow i'm making some kind of a berry smoothie. I will let you know how it turns out:goodluck:

Because I need a powerhouse of a shake Before work - highly physical job and never more than 5 minutes to stop and eat at work so I need to make sure I've got what I need before I leave the house - I have tried many different combinations but I find this works best -

1/2 cup frozen blueberries
1 sliced and frozen banana
1/3 cup dessert tofu or high protien yogurt (home made. I can't eat store bought because they add dairy to it after. Home made yogurt has zero lactose in it)
2 pieces frozen pineapple
1 scoop vanilla protein powder
1/3 cup coconut milk
1/3 cup coconut water
1 cup rice milk.
2 teaspoons macha or instant espresso

That keeps me going through six hours of hard work and no break. Aside from drinking 1/4 cup of pineapple juice mixed with 5 cups coconut water to combat losing electrolytes at work.

ok...

carrot, spinach, frozen grapes, cucumber, parsley,a smidge of agave and ice-not bad :alieninjar:

take a good handful of fresh baby spinach ... a banana (frozen or fresh )... a tablespoon of ground flaxseed ... raspberry kefir... a bit of orange juice...

give it a whirl... I find it quite wonderful and zero taste of spinach !

Emerald Bliss Recipe from Jimbos
 

I love this combo ....

parsley (leaves, stalks or both)
3 to 5 kale (leaves, stalks or both)
2 celery stalks
1 cucumber
1 tart green apple
slice of ginger (start small – maybe 1/4″ to 1/2″ slice)

In place of the kale I sometimes use collards, chard, or spinach or I'll add carrot or dandelion greens. I like lots of ginger and sometimes I add a green bell pepper. So many ways you adapt this and it's still tasty.

I used to make this in my juicer and will start making it in my blender. I think I'll need to add water.

:bow:

This week I'm making smoothies with ....

– Celery
– Dandelion greens
– Purple Kale
– Cucumbers
– Fresh Turmeric
– Fresh Ginger
– Apple
