I have this just about every morning:
16 oz nonfat yogurt
1 orange
1/2 cup orange juice
1 cup dry oatmeal
5 Tblsp ground flaxseed (sometimes more, sometimes less)
1.5 cup strawberries (or blueberries)
1/2 tsp cinnamon
Splenda to taste
6 oz Greek Yogurt (I use Fage 0%)
1 cup Almond Breeze Vanilla (or Soy Milk)
1tsp Honey
1 tsp of Vanilla extract
A handfull of frozen berries (any kind)
2 packets of splenda
Cinnamon (to taste)
A handful of Ice
Blend up until desired consistency.
Pineapple Smoothie
1/2 cup pineapple chunks
1/3 cup pineapple juice
1 container vanilla flavored low fat yogurt
3 to 4 ice cubes
1/2 tea. Butter Nut flavored extract
1 pk. Splenda
Blend all ingredients until ice is fully crushed and serve.
Strawberry Smoothie
1 cup sliced strawberries (or other berries)
1 cup nonfat cottage cheese
1/4 cup old fashioned cooking oats
honey or maple syrup to taste (or 2 packets of sweetner)
small amount of fat free milk for mixing
cinnamon and nutmeg to sprinkle on the top
Directions: Put the milk in the bottom of your blender.
Add all other ingredients, blend until smooth.
The cottage cheese may sound gross but it is really good.
This drink can easily be a meal in itself as it’s heavy in protein.
Mango Lassi:
- 1 fresh mango, chopped into chunks
- 1 cup plain yogurt (any % fat is fine)
- Optional: sugar (I find it plenty sweet without sugar)
Blend until creamy and foamy. Yum!
1/2 cup soy milk
1/2 banana
1/2 cup ice
1/2 cup frozen depitted cherries
1/3 inch raw ginger (beats any cup of joe! and good for you to boot!)
Simple but easy: cranberry juice + 1 frozen banana + vanilla flavour + flax
Apple Carrot Smoothie
2 cups carrot juice
1/2 cups apple juice
6 ounces frozen non-fat vanilla or plain yogurt
1 banana
Put all ingredients into blender. Blend until smoothie consistency is reached.

Hi, I make the following with a little variation on different days depending on my mood –
2-3 pieces of celery
2 carrots
1 bunch of parsley
1 bunch of cilantro
1 bunch of spinach
1 apple
1 banana
1 small lemon
small pieces of ginger (enzymatic action) , turmeric root (anti inflammatory) and beet
1/2 cup sprouts (sunflower or mung or pumpkin)
2-3 dates (optional) to sweeten
1 cup water/ almond milk
To this, I add either fresh ground flaxseeds or spirulina or cacao depending on my mood and the end result is a yummy, exceptionally healthy drink.
Would love it if I could have the Magic Bullet …would be the perfect addition
Thanks for the opportunity !
