Green Julius

July 17, 2010 · Filed Under Green Smoothies · 1 Comment 

This submission isn’t a smoothie recipe I have tried. And I’m not the biggest fan of green smoothies – usually not sweet enough for my tastes, but the health benefits of gren smoothies can’t be ignored. Please let me know if you try this one. I am very curious how the parsley would taste. That’s a lot of parsley. Pardons to the more famous Orange Julius recipes we have.

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups orange juice
  • 2 large mangoes
  • 2 cups fresh parsley or spinach
  • 2 cups of ice

Blend well and drink your healthy green smoothie. Yields 4 cups or 2 servings, as I feel 16 ounces is one serving for a smoothie.

Strawberry Smoothie with a Sweet Twist

December 5, 2009 · Filed Under Strawberry Smoothies · 3 Comments 

Sometimes naming a smoothie can be difficult. I mean you can only come up with so many smoothies with “surprise” or “delight” in the name. But strawberry smoothies are especially difficult because there are so many variations. So this recipe has a little bit of everything (the twist) and ice cream + honey (the sweet). The inexact science of naming smoothie recipes.

Ingredients:

  • 4 strawberries
  • 1 banana
  • Half mango
  • Half pineapple
  • 2 scoops Ice-cream
  • 1 cup of Orange Juice
  • 1 teaspoon of honey

Preparation:
Chop strawberries in half. Chop banana in 4 pieces. Chop mango and pineapple in 4 pieces (8 in total.) 2 scoops of ice-cream and put in blender. Pour orange juice in blender. Add the teaspoon of honey. Put all ingrediants in blender and blend until smooth. Pour in glass and enjoy!

Blueberry Plus Smoothie

July 30, 2009 · Filed Under Blueberry Smoothies · 8 Comments 

Here is a wonderful smoothie packed with fruity goodness. It all starts with the simple blueberry.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups plain yogurt
  • 1.5 cups orange juice
  • 1.5 cup skim milk
  • 1 cup frozen blueberries
  • 1 cup frozen strawberries
  • 1 cup frozen peaches

Put everything in the mixer. Blend. Drink. Serves 4 or so.

A pinch of salt will help bring out more flavor, but I usually avoid it. If you think the drink is still too sour (and it will have a bit of a tang to it) you can add honey or even sugar, but you really shouldn’t need to.

Using frozen fruit means you don’t have to use ice which waters down the drink.
