How to make a good smothie?

Question

you get the picture im a swimmer i get up at 7:00 over the summer i need a good somthie

Answer 1

I like to buy a protien powder to make it extra healthy and filling.. at the health food stores there are poweders called "fru-tien" that taste great.

In the blender add 1 banana,  1 scoop of protien powder, frozen or fresh fruit (i like frozen because it cools off the smoothie)  And some milk.. like a cup or 2. I also like to add some ground flax seed to mine for the extra omega 3s.  It adds a nice nutty taste to it.  

I add a little KEFER if I have some arround the house.. or some yogurt if you want.

Some people add a LITTLE frozen spinach.. you won't taste it if you dont add too much. It will put a bit more pep in your smoothie.

Answer 2

my favorite recipe is a raspberry 7up/sprite smoothie

Ingredients:

1 cup fresh raspberries

1/2 banana

1/2 cup 7up or Sprite

1/2 cup ice

Directions:

Blend the cubes with the banana on high speed until slushy. Add the raspberries and 7up but blend on low for 20 seconds so the raspberries are not highly blended but sill in pieces

or another one is a slushy strawberry... it sounds weird but its so good!

Ingredients:

4 large strawberries

1 tsp of sugar

1/2 cup of whole milk

1 cup of ice cubes

Directions:

Blend strawberries with milk on low speed till well smooth, than add ice cubes and blend on high. Add sugar and blend on high speed for about 1 minute. The texture should be slushy and smooth.

hope this helped!

I have the Magic Bullet (a small VERY powerful blender that blends your smoothie right in the cup you drink from!) and it works great for making 1-person smoothies...I do it daily!

I put some frozen strawberries and cranberries, some cranberry juice and some slim fast strawberry powder - it tastes great!
