I just bought a blender with my mom the other day since we have never owned one before. Now I can crush nuts not only figuratively but literally!
If you have made up or found any good smoothie recipes, please share and leave your opinions ^_^ !
I put this in the imagination section because you have to give your smoothie recipe a descriptive name to make things fancier OR re-name other ones you've tried, e.g. if you found a recipe named "Orange Dream" that turned out to be really bad once you tried it, post it here and re-name it "Ladle of Sewage". Or if you try my blueberry bush recipe and think it sux, you can re-name it "Backyard Compost".
Reveiwing bad recipes also benefits others by letting everyone know what works in a mixture and what doesn't.
This is the 2nd smoothie I made using this blender (the first smoothie I made I blended almond milk, blueberries, and plain whey iso and it tasted kind of bad), but this one is delicious and still healthy!:
-----------------
Blueberry Bush
(the only accurate measurement on here is the spinach cuz I dumped the whole package in.. the rest are estimations)
Makes 2 servings
- handful of ice
- 1.5 cups blueberries (this and the last thing are adapted from what i actually did which is 3 niffer handfuls (i have big hands) of blueberries and a handful of frozen blueberries imprisoned in a chunk of ice)
- 200g spinach
- 2 tbsp milled flax seeds
- 2 tbsp cacao nibs
- 1 tsp matcha powder (ceremonial green tea powder)
- 3/4 cup water
I thought this was plenty sweet enough but I let my dad try some and he said it was not sweet. I drink black coffee and my dad has type 2 diabeetus, so that should give you a good reference on whether or not you might want to add more blueberries or sweetener or something.
