I've noticed a lot of us like smoothieson this forum. Let's post our favorite smoothie recipes here. I'd love to try out some new recipes myself.

Here's the only smoothie I know how to make:
1 cup OJ
1/2 cup frozen blueberries
1/2 cup frozen raspberries (or strawberries)
2 tblsp sugar or splenda

[Blueberry]

Frozen Blueberries
Frozen Mango
(to taste)
1 Bannana
a package silken tofu
1/2 cup (not exact) vanilla soy milk
squirt of honey

Blend and serve!

SUch timing - I'm taking the bike blender out for our monthly member meeting ride tomorrow Gotta go shopping... hmmm.... last club event it was May and there just weren't the choices...
Anything with, oh, melons? (Hmmm... tomatoes is probably a bit too far - slurping gazpacho just doesn't quite seem as fun...)

Yum. I can't wait to try all these new recipes.

Hi all, I'm looking for any good smoothie recipes you know and good can be a relative term somtimes. ;-) I'm collecting them at http://www.smoothieweb.com and I am trying to create the largest collection on the web. Please send any smoothie recipes you may have to blenderman @ smoothieweb.com or just come by and browse around. You'll find some that are truly unsual such as the peanut butter smoothie and the classics as well.

i don't have one recipe that i follow. just usually throw this into a blender and go from there:

frozen fruit (whatever i have on hand) about a cup
a banana if i can find one (quite rare lately)
a small thing of yogurt (whatever i have on hand)
some milk
and a small bit of ice cream (makes it really smooth and oh so good!)

i like the ones that are posted on here. makes me want to go home and make one.

Hey limewave - my husband got this book (Smoothies and Shakes by Elsa Petersen-Schepelern) from our boys for Fathers Day. Its full of yummy ideas. Im not sure who is happier with the gift my husband or my smoothie testing sons.

Contents of book
fruit smoothies
frozen smoothies
ice cream smoothies
yoghurt and buttermilk
soy milk, nut milk and oat milk

[chickwhorips]

didn't know there was such a thing as oat milk or nut milk

[Melstar]

1)Vanilla ice-cream
2)yogurt
3)Ice cubes
4)Milk
5)fresh fruits--> i love putting in strawberries cuz the little seeds make it fun.

somehow it doesn't turn out supercreamy like at cafes, but it still tastes good.

It helps to add a banana to your smoothies to give them a creamier texture. Yogurt is also helpful. Most smoothies have banana in them for this very reason. If you don't like banana flavor make sure you have enough strawberries, etc. to cover the taste of the banana.
