Just Dew It Smoothie

March 6, 2011 · Filed Under Melon Smoothies · 3 Comments 

I just bought a Vitamix Blender and this is one of the smoothie recipes that was included in the recipe book. It is not often I include a melon smoothie so honeydew smoothie recipe is a welcome addition.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup Honeydew chunks
  • 1 medium orange
  • 1/2 medium peach, pitted
  • 1/2 cup fresh pineapple chunks, core can be included
  • 1 cup ice cubes

Preparation: Start blender at low and increase slowly to high. Blend for 45 seconds or until desired smoothie-ness is reached. ;-) It should yield about 2 servings (3 1/4 cups)

Tropical Pina Colada Smoothie

January 9, 2011 · Filed Under Pineapple Smoothies, Protein Smoothie · 3 Comments 

I’m not a huge fan of pina colada, although I love the song. ;-) But I must admit I do love the smell of coconut so if you make this smoothie, I would suggest really getting the coconut milk and not using regular milk. It will make all the difference. This is a great breakfast smoothie with plenty of vitamins and protein to get your day started right and make you feel as if you are on vacation in some tropical paradise. I also think substituting the apple for mango is a nice twist. Comment below if you try this tropical smoothie.

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 pineapple
  • 1 apple
  • 3 Tbs coconut milk
  • 1 banana
  • 1 orange

Blend and serve. If you want to get fancy add a Cocktail drink Umbrella and garnish with pineapple and banana.

Green Tropics Smoothie

March 11, 2010 · Filed Under Green Smoothies, Smoothie Recipes · 4 Comments 

I love mango in a smoothie and adding pineapple makes for one of my favorite flavor combos. So it tastes good, but adding spinach makes it a green smoothie and that makes it healthier.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups of spinach
  • 1 mango
  • 1 banana
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks
  • 1 cup water

Serves 2, but you won’t be surprised if you finish it by yourself.

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!
