What are your SMOOTHIE recipes? Especially healthy ones.

[seeric]

just got an industrial strength blender like jamba juice got, it basically kicks ass. i am in smoothie mode, what are your recipes? it like a meal in a cup.

i use

strawberries
peaches
soy protein powder
bananas
sunny delight juice
and
ice

every morning

sometimes i use an egg white

[Lace]

Fuck yeah, im going to run to the store and go buy some fruit and make a smoothie now

Theres a type of yogurt I believe you can use in them as well.

[MrIzzz]

that sounds delicious. i need to get me an industrial blender. i've heard of people using kiwis, watermelon, coconut, pineapples, but not all at once

[poppet]

I'm a strawberry/banana/orangejuice kinda girl. Throw in a little whey powder or other form of protien and life is good.

'Course you probably don't want a physique like mine....

Actually, that sounds like a really interesting tropical mix.

[Varius]

For very healthy, you can try pineapple/celery or blueberry/spinach...they might not taste the greates though

its really like a meal in a glass. the smoothie has 20 grams of protein with the soy protein powder. when i put all the fruits in there it looked like a damn salad bar. and its healthy.

i just got tired of eating shit like fast food.

i bought 120 bucks worth of bulk fruits. you can get it at costco.

the blender was 120.

protein powder was 24.99

for an investment of about 265 or so, not to say youhave to get the bomb ass blender, you can have enough fruit and stuff for a month and a half.

[boner 2.0]

I'm hungry now

Milk or Vanilla ice cream
Banana
strawberries
blueberries (les bleuwa du lac-st-yean )
kiwi

[gornyhuy]

Anybody have good industrial blender recomendations? I've been meaning to get into smoothies for a long time but my crappy blender just doesn't get the ice crunched up right.

Black and decker makes an awesome one that will stand up to a beating. you need a good one for the ice, some blenders get owned in about a month of hard use wand ice crushing.

Black and Decker has a beefy one. its like 65 bucks or something
icq me if you want

[After Shock Media]

Freeze some banana's still in their skin. (they will turn black btw). Then defrost and peel. (makes a lot of sense eh?) Actually this process destroys most of the cell walls and makes the banana kind of runny and allows it to give maximum flavor.
Some frozen strawberries or if you like costco the summer berry blend.
Small handfull of frozen blueberries. (optional)
Vanilla flavored protien powder.
Plain yogurt (flavored is optional, and vanilla works well).
small squeeze of lemon juice or a few tablespoons of frozen oj concentrate.

Forgo the ice, the frozen berries will be more than enough.

If you want it a little sweeter (sometimes the berries are not that sweet) add a few drizzles of raw honey.

[leenks]

I use most of this, and then add a little creatine...

I've crapped out 3 blenders though, need to find something that can take the beating


Also, there's an awesome milk product from Iceland called "skyr" that's the best stuff to put in smoothies - ever. I think they're trying to market it in or around washington soon, so keep an eye out, it's worth the try ;)

[Ace-wtf]

fresh mango and soy milk

[Babagirls]

1 cup of Non-Fat vanilla yogurt
1/2 cup of OJ
1/2 cup of fresh strawberries
1 bannana
1/2 cup of ice

blend for 1 minute

Makes one hell of a Strawberry-Bannana Smoooooooothie, its my new breakfast meal.

What kind of fruit lasts a month and a half?

I buy enough to last a week, anything after that is probably going to go bad.

[Dagwolf]

Vanilla ice cream, milk, chocolate syrup and sugar.

I have started freezing bananas (peeled) and using them instead of ice.

[aico]

I use a lot of frozen berries, like raspberry, blueberry, strawberry, blackberry, etc, with some orange juice, some vanilla yogurt and some of my kick ass protein powder. Oh and a banana.

i buy in-season fruits that i like in 2's or 4's, and freeze them till i need them.
takes 24 hours to naturally thaw out in the fridge.

i normally strip the very ripe almost black room temp bananas from the skins and freeze them in bulk. with frozen fruits you don't have to use alot of ice.


good idea on the honey, i need that for energy.

[JuiceMonkey]

soy protein will lower your test levels, sunny d is full of sugar

some FF yogurt (plain)
strawberries (frozen)
blueberries (frozen)
peaches (frozen)
Mango (frozen)
Skim Milk
Vanilla extract
Splenda..

best smoothie you will ever have

[Pete-KT]

ah . . . I can't get into frozen fruit with all the fresh stuff we have around here. If you are using frozen fruit, why bother adding ice?

[sherie]

I have a shit load of recepies for ya...too much to type tho. They are all very healthy!

[seeric]

yeh, i figured that out this weekend. monkey see monkey do. i saw them at jamba juice adding a scoop of ice with the frozen fruits. i am going to discontinue that practice. it makes it too thick. i am gonna also stop using the sunny d. i dont want that sugar. and i looked on the container and it has a few preservatives. plain oj will do just fine, goddamn sales at the supermarket had me thinking like an economist instead of a nutritionist. gggrrrrrrrrr.

Why do you use soy protein powder?

I usually have 3 shakes a day. Depending on how much time I have I'll toss some cool shit together, but sometimes it ends up just being milk, protein powder (usually whey) and maybe a banana or two. Mixing strawberries, raspberries and bananas into some milk with vanilla whey protein powder is fucking sexcellent. It's not really a 'smoothie', but it's fucking good.

Enjoy your blender action!

Post op trannies can't shoot loads.

[GFX Wiz]

ice
skim milk
splash of OJ
vanilla yogurt
banana
peanut butter
raw oats
whey protein powder

Have it first thing in the morning or sometime before lunch -- I dropped 35 pounds in 4 months and now I am too skinny again. You'll find it fills you up so you don't eat very much the rest of the day. and it's deliscious.

I use flax seed oil. It has the same benefits as fish oil but, tastes soo much better. Gives it almost a nutty flavor. That being said, this is my fav smoothie recipe.

8 to 12 oz skim milk
1 tablespoon natural peanut butter
1 frozen banana
3 - 4 large frozen strawberries
1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder
1 tablespoon flax seed oil

I have a blender/food processor combo and use the food processor setting to grind up the frozen fruit.

[selena]

I make them alot for the boys, but I don't really have a recipe in terms of giving amounts. Here's one they like alot

Cherry juice (the 100% juice stuff)
frozen cherries (unsweetned)
plain yogurt
wheat germ
small amount of honey to offset tartness of cherries

[seeric]

we should start a GFY cookbook.

no fast food doesn't count.

Yeah, flax seed oil is good for you. You can take fishoil capsules for omega-3 fatty acids too. That's a bit off-topic but thought I'd toss that in there just because we're generally talking about good health.

Enjoy your shakes!

so flaxseed oil and fish oil doesnt do the same thing health wise?

[Tom_PM]

Flash frozen fruit is just as good as fresh IMO.. even when blueberries are in season I buy the store brand frozen ones. They're just great.
I need a beefy blender too.. nothing whimpy thats going to need me to stab it with a knife to make it go..
