Do you ever like to throw in any extra stuff (e.g. wheat germ) for extra nutritional value?

Wow, everyone has posted really good suggestions. Personally I wouldn't be able to choose which would be the best answer.
For me, any type of fruit, along with yogurt, dairy, and some sort of wheat germ with a bit of honey for sweetness.

Banana
Fresh peaches
Non-fat vanilla frozen yogurt
Fresh strawberries
A little fresh orange juice
That's it. Just whip it all up in a blende and enjoy. Very refreshing and quite nutritious. Wheat germ makes it taste like ... well, I'd rather not say.

I usually put strawberries, banana, soy milk, ice and a teeny bit of wheat germ (plus some sugar if it needs it) and it really keeps me going. Yummy too :D

Instead of using ice in your smoothies, use frozen bananas. It keeps your smoothie from getting watered down and adds flavor.

Celebrate Meatless Mondays by making a meal starring beans (another weight-loss aid). You are going to love this sweet potato along with black bean burrito.

Choose a whole-wheat wrap as opposed to two slices of wheat bread.
