Healthy Smoothie Recipes

There are literally hundreds of different ingredients that can be used to make smoothies in a blender.  Listed below are some of my personal favorites.  Keep in mind I tend to eat really healthy so if you donð€™t like the ingredients I use, you can usually substitute them with your own choice.  Also my measurements are hit and miss so nothing is ever exact. Banana Supreme 1 frozen banana Plain yogurt or Rice milk Ice Drop of vanilla Can add a teaspoon of matcha, protein powder or chai mix if wanted. This is one of my ultimate favorite summer smoothies that guarantees to be delicious.  I personally love to add the powdered chai mix which then makes it a banana chai smoothy which is absolutely delicious. Matcha Energy Booster Smoothie Plain yogurt or Rice milk 1 teaspoon of matcha Ice Drop of vanilla Stevia This smoothy is simply and very easy.  It is not sweet at all so I usually add a squirt of liquid stevia to it.  You can substitute the stevia for honey or some other type of sweetener if you like.  This smoothie is delicious, healthy and truly a real energy booster Beautiful Blueberry Smoothie Frozen blueberries Plain yogurt or Rice milk Ice Half a frozen banana I do love blueberries and they happen to make for a great smoothie (just be sure to pick the remnants out of your teeth after!).  The half a banana adds a bit of sweetness to this smoothie and you could also replace it with any other type of fruit if you like. Fruit Surprise Smoothie Add all of your left over fruitð€¦ from apples, to nectarines, to apricots, to blueberries, to strawberries, to peaches to bananað€™s.  Plain yogurt or Rice Milk Ice The taste of this smoothie will always be a surprise.  You never know what youð€™re going to get when you simply add a lot of everything.  Usually it turns out pleasantly good and often very sweet.  I have literally made one with practically all of the above ingredients and it was strange looking but delicious none the less. You can see a theme with all of my smoothies.  The ingredients are fairly similar with just a few variations.  The smoothies listed above are all healthy and wonderful to taste.  Kids and adults will enjoy them and hopefully they will be a big hit on warmer days.

Need a Dessert for a Dinner Party? Try a Cheesecake
I always seem to have less time than I thought, so I usually start with ice cream. If you want it to look really nice, invest in a restaurant style scooper. There is no limit to the variety of different toppings that you can try. I"m a big fan of strawberries and pecans.

The Simple Process Of Making Apple Juice
When the summer comes to an end and the leaves just barely begin to turn colors, another natural phenomenon begins to happen with the trees in my parentð€™s yard.  They begin to drop fruit to the ground.  Those trees are filled with apples, and now those apples are beginning to fall from the yard which only means one thing, time for the traditional making of apple juice.
