Answer 1

Mixed Fruit Smoothie

Ingredients
2 bananas, chilled
2/3 cup strawberries or mango slices
1 12-ounce can grape juice or mango, apricot, strawberry, or other fruit nectar, chilled
1 8-ounce carton fat-free yogurt
1 tablespoon honey (optional)
2 tablespoons ground pistachio nuts (optional)

Directions
In a blender combine bananas, strawberries or mango slices, grape juice or fruit nectar, yogurt, and, if desired, honey. Cover and blend until smooth. Pour into six tall, chilled glasses. If desired, sprinkle with ground pistachio nuts. Makes 6 smoothies.

Note: For two-tone smoothies, make mango smoothies and strawberry smoothies. Transfer to separate pitchers or glass measuring cups. Taking a pitcher or cup in each hand, slowly pour both smoothies at the same time into opposite sides of the glass.

Answer 2

I always freeze fresh fruit,strawberries, blueberries and
cantaloupe.

Use apple juice as the liquid, or papaya juice plus water if necessary.

add a banana and blend.

and yes, when I have fresh spinach I add a handful, spinach
picks up the flavor of the smoothie and adds great vitamins and
a green color.

very tasty. . I copied this recipe from a spa years ago and
my children even love it. (I use Splenda if needed) No yogurt
or milk necessary

good luck

Answer 3

Tropical Bonanza smoothie

1 banana peeled and sliced
1/2 a cup pineapple chunks
1 cup of frozen mangoes (I use Trader Joe's)
A bunch of grapes (don't count, but 24 is good)
1 medium sized passionfruit (if you can't find them at your regular grocery stores, try a specialty food shop, or just don't use them... They just make it tangy.)
1 cup fresh white peaches, cut into chunks
Several ice cubes, whatever fits your taste
3 cups good tropical fruit cocktail, Welche's is good

Put all ingredients in blender and puree or whatever option on your blender works best for you. You may want to choose something that leaves some fruit bits. Enjoy!

Serves 4.

Answer 4

My son bought one of those drinks while at Penn Station last year and he loved it. So, I bought that smoothie blenders and he was thrilled. He loves it. He can't cook a thing and just creates his own concoctions of fruits with frozen bananas, milk, yorgurt and adds different syrups and really enjoys it.
His thinking is... if he likes the ingredients, he'll like the results of whatever he mixes. It works for him.

Answer 6

me me me!!!

Remove seeds from some pieces of watermelon and throw them in the blender. (approx 2 cups, i would guess)

Add some frozen strawberries...FROZEN (this allows you to avoid the usage of ice...probably about 1-1.5 cups)

Toss in some sugar (??? cups--to taste) and a dash of lemon juice. BLEND!!!

Pretty much everything is just to taste so, yeah. Have fun!!!

(you can substitute raspberries for strawberries if preferred)

Answer 7

my favorite is 1% milk a little ice a bananna and a tablespoon of Nutella, I usually add some chocolate flavored protein powder too, it helps to thicken it without using ice cream or something. Nutella is that hazelnut flavored stuff that is like peanut butter for europeans

Answer 8

1 cup chopped strawberrys
1 cup chopped bannana's
a dash of milk
ice

Answer 9

ICE, CHOPED WATER MELON, AND DEPENDING ON THE SERVINGS USE SUGAR AS DESIRED TO MAKE IT SWEET, THEN BLEND.

OR MELON,
IT IS DELICIOUS. AND FRESH.!!
