Smoothie Ideas

Friends have been asking for different smoothies. We all know the fruit smoothies and love them. Not so much smoothies made with vegetables. So, here are a couple of recipes.

Of course, all ingredients have to be organic. Do not use tap water in any smoothie. (For fruit smoothie, use fruit juice (100%) from concentrate, or coconut water.)

Veggie smile

(4 servings)

1 carrot, 1 stick celery, 1/2 red pepper, 1 shallot, 1 cooked potato, 1 Tbsp lemon juice, 1 cup tomato juice, 5-6 ice cubes, dash Tobasco, salt and pepper.

Pepper dance

1 yellow – one red pepper, 4 celery sticks, 1/2 cup plain yoghurt, pinch salt, pinch sugar, chili flakes, ice cubes.

My favorite morning smoothie is already posted.

If consistency is too thick add spring water or tomato juice, or any other organic juice.

You can also use salads and herbs for smoothies, leafy vegetables. Any combination.

Makes for a healthful snack. Smoothies should not be substituted for vegetables. You’ll still need to eat your Brussel’s sprouts. (Cleaned, halved, blanched, then on cookie sheet, drizzled with maple syrup and walnuts. Bake at 400F for 15-20 min (check your baking time. These temps are for high altitude.
