Kool Kiwi Sensation Smoothie
I love Kiwi but it doesn’t make it into many smoothies for me. Not sure why since it is an incredibly healthy addition to any smoothie and with high counts of vitamin A and E it is a welcome food to our bodies. I think kiwis need a little help so I have added strawberries to this smoothie. But don’t worry, the kiwi flavor will come though giving you a different taste than you may be used to.
Ingredients:
- 2 kiwis (peeled and sliced)
- 2 cups strawberries
- 1/3 cup kiwi-strawberry juice
- 1 cup low-fat plain yogurt
- 1 1/2 cups ice
Blend and serve and feel healthier.
Dan’s Breakfast Smoothie
One of my clients knows I own a smoothie site, so he offered me the recipe for his breakfast smoothie. Dan knows what he is talking about when it comes to health and weight loss. He lost 80 lbs. Here is his story.
Ingredients:
- 3 scoops natural chocolate whey protein powder
- 1 cup frozen strawberries
- 4 tbsp. Psyllium husks – Buy Psylium
- 8 ice cubes
- 1/8 tsp. stevia
- 2 cups filtered water
High in protein and relatively low in calories. And it has to be to help Dan fun his successful business selling his cost estimation software products.
Barry Zito Protein Smoothie
I was thumbing through ESPN the Magazine and found this smoothie recipe by Major League Baseball pitcher Barry Zito. He says, “I came up with this after a bit of experimentation.” Usually that is when the best smoothies are made, I think. He added, “Protein smoothies can suffice for a few of your meals, but a lot of the remade smoothies or shakes are too chalky. Stevia is a key ingredient because the raspberries can be bitter.”
Ingredients:
- 2 cups of various frozen berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries)
- 2 cups of vanilla rice milk
- 2 scoops of whey protein
- 1/2 packet of Stevia.
Simply blend all the ingredients until smooth and pour into a glass.
Creamy Blackberry Smoothie

Okay, I realize creamy and blackberry don’t usually go together but that is what smoothieweb.com is all about, mixing flavors and textures that don’t always come to mind. This blackberry smoothie is worth the risk. Let me know how you like it.
Ingredients:
- 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream (a good start, yes?)
- 1 1/2 cups of frozen blackberries
- 1/2 cup of strawberries
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 tsp lime juice (for a tart kick)
- dollop of whipped cream
Blend until you can’t wait and then add the whipped cream.
Cilantro Surprise Smoothie
Okay, okay, you are reading this and thinking, “Cilantro Smoothie”? Well, me too. But what is life without trying new things and that means trying new smoothies. You will see some familiar ingredients such as strawberries and papaya but also some not-so-familiar ingredients such as almond milk (see below) which can be difficult to find.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 cup coconut water
- 1 cup papaya
- 1 cup cilantro
- 8 large strawberries
- 4 dates
HOW DO I MAKE ALMOND MILK?
You can make almond milk by soaking 1 cup of almonds for a few hours. When finished
soaking, strain them and blend them with 3 cups of filtered water. Strain the resulting mixture through a nut milk bag. You can add sweetener or vanilla for additional flavor. To store, place in the refrigerator in an air-tight container. You can also buy almond milk in a health food store, but it will not be raw.
Put everything until smooth. Dr. Yoshiaki Omura discovered that mercury levels in the urine increased after an individual ate Vietnamese soup, which contains cilantro. Dr. Omura’s further research discovered that the herb cilantro could accelerate the excretion of mercury, lead, and aluminum from the body.
