Well, essentially they are simple fruit smoothies that also have the addition of blended greens. This allows you to get the extra nutrition that you normally would not get from just having a pure fruit smoothie by itself.

Greens are known for being some of the most nutritionally dense foods on the planet, and they are absolutely vital for maintaining your health. And the best part is, that this is a more effective way of absorbing nutrients within the greens compared to just eating some salads, as the greens are broken down and more available to your digestive system.

So how do you make these smoothies, and what kind of greens do you use? Well, this is the beauty of it, you can use a number of different greens as well as fruits to make your particular green smoothie.

I like using combination of fresh and frozen fruit when I am making my green smoothies so that I can get the sweetness of the fresh fruit, and a thicker consistency with the frozen produce will also allow me to have.

When it comes to what types of greens I like to use, I like to use a combination of spinach, kale, chard, and wheat grass. The one thing that you absolutely need to make sure that you do, is use only organic produce that you do not drink any pesticides that may be found with more traditionally grown produce. Here is a yummy but nutritious green smoothie to start you on your path to health and good nutrition!

So I thought why not come up with a tasty but simple smoothie recipe for your guys to enjoy! There are a couple of details to keep in mind however, and the first is to make sure you are only using high quality strawberries. Always buy organic, as these berries are heavily sprayed with pesticides otherwise, and you don't want that crap in your body!

Now I tend to use is a combination of fresh berries and frozen berries for a couple basic reasons. The reason I like to use frozen strawberries is because of the fact that they tend to make the smoothie a lot more consistent and certainly the thicker as well.

However, I also like to use fresh strawberries as well, because they often are much sweeter, and really helps bring out the actual flavor of the strawberries, including the frozen ones. Here is a simply but very delcious strawberry smoothie recipe for you to indulge in!

Banana Smoothie Recipe

Looking for a tasty banana smoothie recipe? I got just the thing for ya! I love bananas, and I happen to think they go fabulously with just about any type of smoothie recipe. One of the best things about using this fruit is that not only does it provide lots of potassium and fiber, but it also helps to thicken up the smoothie as well. This is critical is you intend to make a more luxurious and creamier smoothie! 

Now I tend to like to use  a combination of both fresh banana chunks as well as frozen chunks. This is because frozen chunks will allow your smoothieto be thicker, compared to a smoothie that only uses fresh banana chunks.

However, fresh banana pieces tend to be a bit sweeter than their frozen counterparts, so using both will allow you to get the thickness of the frozen pieces as well as the sweetness of the fresh ones. Make sure you only use organic bananas and ingredients whenever possible, and always use filtered water too! Here is a simple but yummy banana smoothie for you banana lovers out there!

2. then add your banana greek yogurt
3. follow that up with your fresh banana chunks
4. then add in your frozen banana chunks and sweetener

Protein Smoothie Recipes

When trying to lose weight, bulk up after a workout, or you are simply looking for a safe and natural meal replacement, one of the best things to do is to drink protein smoothie recipes! These drinks are fairly straight forward, they are essentially fruit or green smoothies (fruit smoothies with added greens) that also have an emphasis on protein. 

You can go about getting extra protein into your a diet a number of different ways, and one of the






easiest is to simply use non fat greek yogurt. Greek yougrt has twice the protein that is found in more traditional european and american style yogurts most people are familiar with. You get the extra thickness and creaminess without any of the guilt that comes from a full fat yogurt.

You can also add your own protein supplement as well. I tend to like to use vegan or vegetarian sourced protein myself. I find it is a safer and equally, if not not more so, effective source of extra protein. One of my "go to" favorites is made by sunwarrior. Here is a tasty protein smoothie you can try yourself!

Banana Spinach Protein Smoothie

• 2 cups filtered water
• 1 cup banana flavored non fat greek yogurt
• 1 whole banana in frozen chunks
• a few generous handfuls of organic spinach

2. then add your greek yogurt next
3. follow that up with your spinach

So there are a couple of ways you can go about making a smoothie, particularly if you are going to use yogurt. But I tend to stick by a couple basic smoothie principles when making these yummy drinks, and certainly the most importabt is the quality of the ingredienta, namely, the fruit and the yogurt.

I like to use all organic produce and all organic yogurt if at all possible. This is because going with


organic ingredients will allow you to avoid putting harmful pesticides and chemicals into your body that would come from using more traditionally grown produce and yogurt. But I also find organic yogurt and fruit also tends to taste a lot better as well, so it is a win-win situation.

Just make sure you always use organic juice or properly filtered water for your liquid base. I also recommend that if you want a thicker and creamier yogurt smoothie, that you use nonfat Greek yogurt which tends to be thicker, and also has the benefit of having twice the protein of normal yogurt.
