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

- 1/2 cup pineapple juice
- 1 cup orange sherbet
- 1 banana
- 2 cups mango, sliced
- 2 cups ice
- 1 teaspoon lime juice
Great Grape Smoothie
Grapes are available year round, but summer seedless grapes are the best. As spring approaches I’m looking forward to the delicious flavor a crips red grape contains. Try thi in a smoothie and reap all the health benefits the red grape has to offer. Grape smoothies don’t get the respect they deserve.
Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 cups chilled (not quite frozen) red seeless grapes
- 2/3 cup sherbet ice cream (raspberry or lime)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened grape juice
- 1 to 3 cups of ice (start with one and add more as needed)
Blend this one ingredient at a time and add the ice cubes slowly until the thickness you want is desired.
