Guest guest Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 I pretty much followed Lea Ann's directions and made it my own..with my own flavors.. but this is what I do.. I start with 1/4 c greek unflavored yogurt , large handful of fresh spinach or greens, frozen fruit started with 2 cups and then a started chging that to increase the veggies and decrease the fruit... I use one tbsp of chia seeds or flax meal , one scoop of protein powder either plain or chocolate depending on how I feel that day.. I usually use some portion of frozen banana again depends on what I am feeling like that day. never more than ONE more likely 1/2... then add liquid either almond milk or just water.. and approx 2/3 cup..... then I throw about 1/2 cup of ICE on top .. That takes it to a more ICE Cream like consistency.. if you want it more of a DRINK then leave the ice out.. ...and then just whirl it UP.. Chg up the fruit to what ever you like.. I now have started adding a few sm mini red peppers... and it really tastes good to me.. so my drink has both greens, carrots, peppers and fruit and yogurt and protein powder... makes for a Healthy LUNCH > > > > I must share that another family member is on board the Green Smoothie Express > > > > A cousin that lives in West Virginia saw a photo of one of my lunch time smoothies several weeks ago and begged me for the recipe...Talking with her yesterday she is now HOOKED... she said she had no idea that you could make a good healthy and DELISH item like that..

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2012 Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 It just goes to show how many people want to eat healthy. My family got a Blendtec shortly after I got my Vitamix, and now a couple girls at work are trying out green smoothies as well. It's also worth noting I have another coworker whose daily greeting to me is, " Did you bring me a smoothie? Where's yours? " He helps himself to mine, and I have to slap him away or he'll drink half of it, easily. Drink to health! - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
