Smoothie Recipes and Ideas

Strawberry Mango Limeade Smoothie (from this morning)

Two limes (or just juice)
One lemon (or just juice)
One mango (fresh or frozen)
10 frozen strawberries
3 big handfuls of red grapes
a few mint leaves
(if you use all fresh fruit, add ice)

Tart, sweet, refreshing, pretty . . . the best lime drink I've ever tasted!

The Kitchen Sink Smoothie (from yesterday)

I think I set a record for myself yesterday with a 10-ingredient smoothie. It was a huge hit among all ages:
16 months
2 years
3 years
4 years
12 years
and their two 30-something mommies
Everyone asked for more!

Ingredients
Apple
Mango
Orange
Pineapple
Grapes
Figs
Avocado
Parsley
Banana (frozen & fresh)
Strawberries (frozen)
Delicious!

Smoothie Tips:

Try adding avocado. Gives smoothies great smoooothness but doesn't overpower with flavor (like bananas).

Greens I like to add: spinach, kale, parsley, mint . . .

Grapes make a great natural sweetener without changing the flavor much.
