Banana Peanut Butter Smoothie
This is a recipe that I use when its one of those hot days and im to lazy to make anything and I can’t think of anything cold to eat.
Ingredients:
- 4-5 apple bananas (2-2 1/2 regular banana)
- 4 spoonfuls of peanut butter (creamy preferred) (or 2 spoonfuls if you have a big spoon)
- 1 can of sprite
- 7-15 pieces of ice (depending on how thick you want your smoothie)
You mix together the bananas, peanut butter, and sprite first. then when that is fully blended together you add in the ice. I like my smoothies more on the liquidy side so I put in less ice so its still smooth but you also have that crunch.

Berry, Berry Good Smoothie
This is a fun smoothie packed with everything. Adding a carrot may sound odd, but you’ll hardly taste it and the extra vitamins will do you good. Try it without the carrot if vegetables offend you.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 raspberries
- 1/2 cup strawberries
- 1/2 cup blueberries
- 1 cup 2% milk
- 1 cup apple juice (unsweetened)
- 2 cups ice
- 1 small carrot
Blend until the nutrients are singing.
Cranberry-Apple Limeade Smoothie
Feel free to add more lime sherbert if you want your smoothie sweeter or thicker. Can you ever have too much lime sherbert?
Ingredients:
- 2 cups cran-apple juice
- 1 1/2 cups of limeade
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 2 scoops lime sherbert
- 1 cup ice
Blend and really enjoy. This is a favorite smoothie of mine.
Grapefruit Smoothie
I personally don’t like grapefruit, but my wife loves them, so there must be others who would enjoy a grapefruit smoothie. While it is too tart for my tastes it is an ultra healthly smoothie recipe.
Smoothie Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups grapefruit juice, freshly squeezed is perferred
- 3/4 cup of sliced pineapple
- 1/4 cup of pineapple juice (this will sweeten it up nicely)
- 1 cup plain low-fat yogurt
- 2 cups ice
- Optional: feel free to add a scoop of ice cream for an even sweeter taste.
Mondo Mango Smoothie
I love a good, ripe mango and adding it to a smoothie with sherbet ice cream is delicious. Forget about the the nutrients in mango as well as the fiber, you’ll want this for the great taste. One of my favorite smoothie recipes with mango.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup pineapple juice
- 1 cup orange sherbet
- 1 banana
- 2 cups mango, sliced
- 2 cups ice
- 1 teaspoon lime juice
