NBR: At home Smoothies!

ludali · June 2014

Any Mommas make smoothies? And I'm talking about fairly healthy ones - not ones that could be mistaken for a milkshake (mmmmmmmmm)! I'm bored with breakfast stuff and now that its getting warmer out, would love some cold smoothies instead.

What are your favorite mixtures/flavors??

Mommy's Smoothie

4 cups crushed ice

1 to 14 cups of vodka (depending on the mood)

2 oz jiggers coffee flavored liqueur

2 oz jiggers Irish cream liqueur

2 tablespoons chocolate syrup

1/2 cup whipped cream

:P

I've seen some really great ones on pinterest with chia seeds, fruits, veggies and greek yogurt.

When we make them we usually use frozen fruit (I like berries), a banana, yogurt or milk, and maybe some protein powder or flax seeds depending on what we have on hand.

Well that sounds fantastic and I WILL keep! ;-)

I get frozen fruit, or freeze fruit myself to make smoothies so I don't have to add additional ice.

2 cups frozen berries

1 banana (can be frozen too)

1 cup orange juice

I don't really measure, that's more or less what I put in there. You can probably add flax or chia or whatever you want for an extra nutritional boost. or make it green by adding spinach or kale

Frozen strawberries, 2 T PB2 peanut butter powder, 1 container vanilla yogurt, skim milk to get desired consistency. It tastes like PB&J!

These sound wonderful ladies!!

I also have unflavored protein powder and cacao powder (superfood!) - anything with PB is awesooooooooome.

@WildRumpus I've seen you post about PB2 before. How come you use it over regular PB? Just being nosey!! I've always been intrigued by it...

@ludali‌ it's pressed, so the fat has been majorly reduced. 2 TB is 45 calories. I love peanut butter, so it's a good way to have it be almost guilt free

@WildRumpus WHOA - well that is good enough reason! I may be purchasing VERY soon.

1 cup of milk, 2 T PB2, 1 frozen banana and an ice cube (optional). So yummy!

I am not a peanut butter fan so my go-to is:
Handful strawberries
Banana
Frozen mango
Watermelon if we have it
Splash OJ
4 ice cubes
4 oz yogurt

You can pretty much add any fruit - blueberries or pineapple are good choices.
