This is a collection of Smoothies in alphabetical order and over 26 that are
sure to be fun making and a delight drinking.
Have you ever heard of the
"Queen''s Revenge" or the "Xanadu" Smoothie?
Why are Smoothies so very
popular?
Smoothies can be one of the best "Foods" your body can enjoy.
Here are some of the Smoothie benefits:
1. Choosing the right
ingredients, a smoothie can be a great way to cleanse and detoxify your body.
This can help your health generally.
2. Smoothies give you a real energy
boost, not a fake caffeine kick. I like the caffeine kick myself. Shhhh!
3. They are quick and easy to prepare and you can take them with you and
drink it on your way to work.
4. Fruits and vegetables are important in
our diet but it can be a really difficult to eat as much as we should. So the
Smoothie can come to the rescue.
5. Kids really like them. It is a great
way to give your kids nutritious fruits and vegetables that taste really good. I
found that if I had a handful of blueberries to the green smoothie it then
becomes palatable to my kids.
Now it's time to get started preparing
your own.
I always substitute Stevia for sugar and this is also a must for
diabetics; or some of the other artificial sweeteners.
Remember the more
sugar and fruit you use the more the carbohydrates and sugar add up. You can
still have a great smoothie without excessive fruit in each one.
Many
people find that freezing their fruit before using it in a smoothie is a great
way to get a thicker, cooler smoothie than you get by adding ice. If the fruit
you plan to use is large, like watermelon, it may be best to cut it into smaller
pieces before putting it in the freezer. Freeze the fruit on a plate or piece of
aluminum foil, so the pieces don't stick together, and then transfer them to a
clean container in the freezer for later use. Experiment with the amount of
liquid you use and the amount of ice so it is the consistency that pleases your
individual taste.
You can put vegetables in your smoothie mix as well.
You can make smoothies with vegetable ingredients that taste surprisingly good.
In the end, making the perfect, healthy smoothie is all up to you. It is
easier than you
think...................................................................
