I need new smoothie recipes. I don't like bananas, so nothing with them in it. Thanks!?

Question

Oh and anything with yogurt or ice cream is welcomed as well.

Answer 1

I make smoothies every morning (I think it's even contributed to my weight loss). I use bananas in mine, but since you don't like them, you can use other fruits. Just be sure whichever fruits you use that you freeze them first-this will ensure that your smoothie is creamy and not watery. I usually use fruit like mandarin oranges, strawberries and pineapple. I put those in a blender with 2 tbs of ground flax seed and 3/4 cup of milk (soy or regular). The protein in the flax keeps you feeling full for several hours. Hope this helps!

Answer 5

You can use mango to thicken it instead of banana. Add fresh or frozen berries of choice and 1 cup vanilla yogurt - and if you have some sorbet around, any flavor, toss a scoop of that in too. Experiment with different flavors.

I also like to add 1 tbsp flaxseed oil - it has tons of omega-3s and you can't tell it's in there.

Answer 6

Mangoes and Kiwi are swell. Can't ever go wrong with Strawberries, Blueberries or Rasberries. blended with ice and plain yogurt. excellant and refreshing. throw some granola into your smoothies !

Answer 7

One of my favorites:
2 individual cups of yogurt- breyers or dannon is good
Any flavor, blueberry & strawberry are good together
Crushed ice-cubes
Strawberry slices
Blueberries
Pineapple juice and slices if desired
Blend all together and enjoy

Answer 8

Try this! I call it "Uncle Bingo's Master Blaster" at the restaurant I chef at. Good chocolate ice cream, fudge sauce, orange juice, chunks of pineapple. Very rich! Very tasty! Enjoy.

Answer 9

My advice is just to experiment. You know what fruits you like so just start mixing. I find that sometimes I come up with some great foods and drinks just by mixing different ingredients that I know I like. Just be sure to make small amounts in case it doesn't turn out well. Good luck.
