My favorite recipe:
1 Banana
1/2 cup Frozen Peaches
1 cup No sugar Almond Milk
1 scoop Vanilla Protein Powder
1 spoon Chia Seeds

Great Value - Frozen Mixed Fruit Sliced Strawberry, Peach, Mango and Pineapple, 2 cup (no sugar added)

Minute Maid Premium Pulp Free - 100% Pure Squeezed Orange Juice, 8 ounces

Great Value Clover Honey - Clover Honey, 1 tbsp

310 cals (total)

*Taking the fruit directly from the freezer, I thaw in the microwave for 90 seconds before throwing in the blender

Also, to save calories, you can replace/reduce the OJ with water. OJ just gives it a better flavor. Can also add banana if you like. Make as big or small as you want! I just recommend maintaining the 2:1 ratio on Fruit:OJ (or other liquid)

Great for pre or post workout

Everyone's recipes sound yummy! Just a tip: include Matcha tea in your smoothies. It is a higher grade of tea and contains more antioxidants and catechins (disease-fighting components) than standard green tea. Also, the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition discovered there is a compound (aside from the caffeine) in Matcha that burns fat smile

Here's a recipe I use. It makes 2 smoothies.

4 oz Yoplait strawberry greek yogurt
1 cup frozen blueberries
1/2 cup frozen blackberries
1/2 cup strawberries
1 scoop Optimum Gold Standard why protein, Vanilla Ice Cream flavor
1/2 cup 100% orange juice
1/2 cup water
2 tsp Matcha Green tea powder (or you can buy the leaves and grind them)

There are so many great ideas, but a quick question...what is a good substitute for bananas? or do the smoothies work the same with out them? (I have a sensitivity to bananas and can't eat them.)

Can't wait to try this tomorrow for breakfast. I bought the Fage 0% and it is officially my favorite greek yogurt. It's not as tart as the other brands. :-)

I love Matcha Green Tea it is milder tasting without bitter taste of regular green tea. Thanks for this recipe.

One of my favorite things to do is to add a tablespoon of dry sugar free fat free pudding mix. Thickens up the smoothie and also gives it great flavor! Today I did one with 1 cup of almond milk, 1 frozen banana, 1 tbsp sf / ff cheesecake pudding mix, and 1 tbsp of peanut butter. So good!

Did you ever try the frozen YOPLAIT smoothies.
They are only 110 calories and are actually good:)
