Smoothies Galore!!

Bring on your favourite smoothie recipes.... I need help I tried to make one and oh my god it's GROSS!!!! :roflmao:

Who's gonna help me out....!!!!

I aint very good with recipes....I tend to just chuck stuff together and see if it works lol.

Our Fave so far....

1 Banana
6(ish) strawberries)
1 kiwi fruit


Chop up and throw in a jug. Add a healthy dollop of natutal yoghurt and a splash of fruit juice (think we used cranverry and raspberry)........then blend it all together until it's all smooth and scrummy.

Serves 2
Kiwi Strawberry Smoothie


INGREDIENTS:

• * 1 banana
  * 6 strawberries
  * 1 kiwi
  * 1/2 cup vanilla frozen yogurt
  * 3/4 cup pineapple and orange juice blend

DIRECTIONS:

Place the banana, strawberries, kiwi, vanilla frozen yogurt, and pineapple and orange juice blend in a blender. Blend until smooth.

500ml orange juice...
...Ice...
.... Vodka....

I find any smoothie will taste fine as long as there's a banana in it. It's like the magic ingredient.

lol yer but why is it that no matter how many other fruits you have in there, it ALWAYS tastes of banana? I mean they hardly have a strong flavour do they?

Best smoothy out there... :roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao:

I tend to avoid smoothies, but that is because most of them contain yoghurt and soygurt is just way to expensive

That sounds good! I tried something similiar with orange juice and it came out horrible. Maybe the fruit wasn't ripe enough.

I suggest starting each day with a glass of Innocent smoothie.

I think the blender makes a big difference. I have a vitamix and my smoothies are always great.
I usually use in season fruit along with a banana.
This mornings was.....
1 banana
2 organes
half a kiwi
small apple
3 tbl of flax seed oil
ice cubes and some water

This one sounds really good. I love the flavor of pineapple juice but have never tried it in a smoothie. I will have to use your recipe after I get my groceries. Can not wait to try it.

That sounds absolutely delicious. I will buy the ingredients and try your smoothie recipe this weekend. Should be yummy!

That does sound yummy. Like a dessert! Thank you for sharing, I am going to try this one out.

I love smoothies, a lot! Usually I make one on my own based on gut feel. I don't really have a particular recipe. I just toss in some bananas, mangoes, apples and watermelon with a bit of a skim milk and a teaspoon of honey, and lots of ice, and I'm done! Sometimes when I'm feeling a bit more adventurous, I add other stuffs such as plain frozen yogurt or vitamin water.

Strawberries and banana. I'm not very brave when it comes to smoothies, but I'd love to try something adventurous which is very sweet

Yummy! I love smoothies! My favorite are green smothies! yup, I said it! Just take your favorite smoothie recipe and as the last step add 1/2- 2 cups of baby spinach, organic if you can. I promise you, you won't even taste the spinach. It turns the smoothie a fun green color and you're getting the added goodness and vitamins of the spinach. It helps me get in a good portion of my daily green leafy vegetables, which are extremely important to get!

I love smoothies, but I can never make them correctly. I tried to master strawberry and banana smoothies, but I didn't think it was the right consistency. It wasn't "smooth" enough for my liking. I think I added too much ice, which made it chunky or something. I've been hearing about adding vegetables to smoothies and I'm a little hesitant, but I think I will one day try it since I need some more vegetables in my diet.

You really can't taste the spinach?

I agree about spinach. I always add in a little spinach to get some greens in my diet. You really don't taste the spinach and get used to the taste without many problems. I love strawberry cantaloupe smoothies myself, using a little coconut milk and spinach. I have a Blendtec blender so it is really easy to get a nice smooth smoothie.
