If you're looking for the recipe, you can scroll to the bottom of the post. What is a Green Smoothie? A green smoothie is basically just a raw fruit smoothie with some raw greens added to it for more nutrition.

80/10/10 Recipe: Banana Raspberry Pineapple Smoothie

Relevance: 77%      Posted on: March 30, 2012

  Spring is coming! I know it! We're getting a few sunny days in between the rain here in Vancouver. So sometimes I can take my pictures outside. Yay! I really love pineapple and raspberries in smoothies, I think they make almost as good of a combination as pineapple and black cherries. This is a smoothie I regularly make as it has creaminess from the bananas, the tartness from raspberries, and a tropical pineapple twist to it. As long as you're using fully ripe, spotted bananas as the base you can pretty much throw any frozen fruit into the blender…

I love love love cherries. I also love love love cherry smoothies. If you've never had one, YOU MUST TRY IT. Pitting cherries by hand is kind of a pain, but scroll to the bottom to find out how I do mine quickly. If you live in the USA you can also look for frozen black cherries at the grocery store, those are great to have too. You can also buy cherries cheaper at the end of the summer season and pit a bunch yourself and freeze them in plastic bags to use all year which is handy to have.…

    Raw Vegan Cherry Dream Smoothie Serves 1 Ingredients: 1/2 cup water 2 cups pineapple 2 cups black cherries, pitted 1/2 mango (ataulfo is best) Directions: Place ingredients in order into Vitamix or blender. Blend on high until smooth. You can use fresh or frozen of any of the fruit ingredients, but fresh is best for the full flavour of each fruit. The best tool I have found to help with pitting cherries is the Cherry It Cherry Pitter, which I got on Amazon. It rocks, for when you want to eat a bunch of cherries nice and neatly,…

80/10/10 Recipe: Raw Winter Vitamin C Smoothie

Relevance: 73%      Posted on: September 28, 2011

Winter time can be a little harder to get a wide variety of fresh ripe fruit. So this is an easy staple that you can add to your breakfast regime. Just make sure you are using fresh squeezed orange juice (home-made is best) and ripe bananas (that are very speckled and sweet). An unripe banana or sour oranges can really ruin your smoothie, so make sure you use quality ingredients that taste good on their own first. If you find that you are feeling cold in the winter months, make sure you take your fruit OUT of the refrigerator before…

Fruit and Veggie Smoothie Recipe with Beet Juice

Relevance: 72%      Posted on: September 10, 2012

Sometimes people ask me, "Can I put vegetables into my fruit smoothies?".  And I say "Well that depends". I wouldn't necessarily tell a novice that they should try broccoli or carrots in a smoothie, because those vegetables are pretty hard to blend and you may not like it. Same goes for beets. Don't just toss them into your blender (unless you have a really high powered one and like a gritty chewy smoothie).  So instead I recommend for those wanting to up the nutrition of their fruit smoothies that you juice some veggies like carrots or beets and use that…

For some of you green smoothies might be something new, or something you've heard of but never tried. Others may make green smoothies regularly and enjoy them. I wanted to share a really easy green smoothie recipe with you today. Something I would call a "basic" or "beginner's green smoothie". #1. Because it's not too frightening looking and you can tell it has berries in it (this may seem a little normal looking). This may also appeal to people who are afraid of drinking something that looks like green grass! #2. It tastes very nice and you cannot detect any…

So I just wanted to let you know that  'Simply Decadent Smoothies' is now available at a special discounted price here. Today I'm going to share with…
