Title: vegie smoothies.....
Post by: curly66 on November 06, 2012, 07:51:49 am
does anyone do vegie smoothies??  a friend is looking for vegie smoothie recipes using kale and yummy greens....  I've a pretty good juicer and can do fruits but could never quite stomach the vegie juices and can't find my juicer recipe book to tell her what is in it...

Curly66, I quite often make smoothies using whatever vegetables I have in the fridge and a mixture of other ingredients.  I've made two 'green' smoothies today using a combination of fruit and vegetables;

Smoothie 1:
2 eggs (I wanted to have some extra protein as I had this after a gym session and before a bush walk)
handful of two of lettuce (I used butter lettuce)
1 banana (I like to keep frozen banana in the freezer to throw in my smoothies)
handful of frozen blueberries
1 teaspoon of Shatki's Superfood blend (spirulina, chlorella, bee pollen, barley grass, wheat grass, maca root, mesquite and chia seed)
water

Smoothie 2:
1 egg
handful of baby spinach
1/2 avocado
handful of frozen raspberries
1 teaspoon of Shatki's Superfood blend
water

I've also used other ingredients like kale, beetroot, cucumber, yogurt, etc. in my smoothies.  I really just play around with it until I get a flavour I like.

I think I actually have some green smoothie recipes somewhere.  If I can find them I'll post some of the suggestions.
