Roasted strawberries in this protein packed smoothie brings out their amazing natural flavor, made with creamy cottage cheese and added chia seeds – what a great way to start the day!
Roasted Strawberry Protein Smoothie
Roasted Strawberry Protein SmoothieI am always looking to get more protein in for breakfast after my workouts! I love healthy protein smoothies, like this to start off my day. This skips protein powder and uses cottage cheese which is naturally high in protein. More cottage cheese recipes you make like, this savory cottage cheese bowl, this cottage cheese frittata, and these cottage cheese waffles!
I discovered a new way to add protein to my smoothies… cottage cheese! This is a great discovery for me because I’m not a fan of the tang of yogurt in my smoothies. Cottage cheese makes it creamy with no tang, and has more protein than yogurt so it’s perfect! I also love adding chia seeds to my smoothies which is an excellent source of fiber and omega-3’s.
Roasted Strawberry Protein Smoothie
Ingredients
- 1-1/2 cups fresh strawberries, quartered
- 1/2 tablespoon raw sugar
- 1/3 cup reduced fat cottage cheese
- 1/2 cup fat free milk
- 1 cup crushed ice
- 1 tsp chia seeds
- 6 to 8 drops liquid stevia, optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- In a medium bowl, combine strawberries and sugar.
- Pour the strawberries on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
- Place in the oven and roast for 12 to 15 minutes until the strawberries start to release their juices but are still firm.
- Carefully pour the roasted strawberries and their juice into a blender along with cottage cheese, milk, ice and chia and blend until smooth.
- Enjoy!
My favorite smoothie recipe is similar to a favorite sandwich of mine—
PEANUT BUTTER AND BANANA SMOOTHIE
1 frozen ripe banana cut into pieces
3/4 cup milk
1 scoop of vanilla protein powder
2 tablespoons PB2, peanut butter powder
1/2 cup of plain Greek yogurt
Any amounts can vary with your taste.
I absolutely love Gina’s PB&J recipe. YUM!
3/4 cup frozen blueberries, put your blueberries in the freezer!
3/4 cup sliced fresh strawberries
3/4 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk, I used Almond Breeze
1 tbsp peanut butter
5 to 6 drops liquid stevia or sweetener of your choice, NuNaturals Vanilla
1/4 cup ice
I have been playing with matcha lately. Matcha, spinach, oat milk, bananas, ice. No exact amounts, just throw and go. Now reading the chia seeds maybe I will add that! Thanks for the opportunity!
Love it!
This is yummy and creamy.
It was ok
I’ve been trying to add more protein to my diet too, but I’ve never thought to try cottage cheese. Can’t wait to try this idea!
My favorite smoothie recipe:
The “Unmargarita”
– 1/2c unsweetened vanilla almond milk
-2T nonfat Greek Yogurt
-1/4 English cucumber
-2 stalks celery
-1oz avocado
-1/2 lime
-1 scoop vanilla protein powder (optional)
-1/8t cayenne pepper
-1/2c fresh spinach
-1/2c frozen mango cubes
-1/2c ice
-top with 1t chia seeds (optional)
I knew there was a reason I just bought strawberries and cottage cheese. My favorite smoothie recipe is a pear and oatmeal smoothie with yogurt. But I also regularly make your recipe for peanut butter and jelly smoothie.
As I am a newbie to smoothies, I don’t have a favorite recipe. If I win the blender, that would certainly give me the incentive to do smoothies.
My go to smoothie
2 cups of frozen mixed berries
1 cup oat bran powder
2cups fresh baby spinach (optional).
1 large piece of ginger- scrubbed but not peeled
1/2 orange -cut in half-scrubbed and seeds removed, unpeeled!!!
4 Tbs. chia seeds
2 cups oat milk- unsweeetened or any nut milk
This is sweet enough for me but you can add honey or stevia if you want more sweetness.
You may need to thin it with water.
This makes about 4 smooothies.
I will try adding cottage cheese after reading today’s post. I enjoyed reading everyone’s recipes!
I would love to have a vitamix blender. Thank you for the opportunity!!
So amazing! Love the roasted strawberries!
My go-to smoothie has spinach, frozen pineapple and mango and coconut water. It’s from the Ninja blender recipe book.
I love that this has fat free milk in it. I always seem to have that in the fridge because I can pick it up from the corner store, but I can’t tell you how many times I’ve gone to make a smoothie and I don’t have another milk alternative
My favorite is spinach, kiwi, pineapple :frozen riced cauliflower, mixed berries and chia
I love smoothies in the morning. I’ve been using protein powder, greens (such as spinach), frozen fruit and almond milk as my go to. But looking to mix things up. I love skinnytaste.com and I am so grateful for you!!!
Thanks Tammy! 🙂
What’s the benefit of roasting the strawberries?
Roasting the strawberries brings out amazing flavor .
It sounds amazing and I love most of Gina’s recipes Unfortunately in my opinion, this one did not live up. It was fine but not great. It was not a strong strawberry flavor and the cottage cheese taste was more prevalent than I thought it would be.
For ease of use, I’d rather throw some protein powder and fruit straight into the blender.
My favorite smoothie is spinach smoothie….it has a handful of spinach 1cup of almond milk 1/2cup of pineapple 1/2 banana 1 Tb raw honey and a scoop of collagen protein so good☺
Super simple, but so delicious
1 cup frozen fruit (typically blend of strawberries, mango, pineapple)
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
1 teaspoon of chia seeds
Handful of baby spinach
~3/4 scoop vanilla protein powder (love my 7.99 can from TRader Joes — 100 cals, 20 G protein, 2 g sugar per scoop)
I’m excited to try roasting berries for smoothie. Never would have thought of that!
My dairy free smoothie- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk, 1/2 cup cold green tea, 1/2 banana, 3-5 good size frozen strawberries, 1 scoop pea protein powder, 1large kale leaf ( I buy a bunch, wash and freeze in ziplock bag) pea protein makes a thick shake, I’m totally hooked on!
Hi!
Just a question about the "1-1/2 cups fresh strawberries" part: does that mean "one and a half cups", or "one to one-half cup"?!
Thanks!

I love anything I can sneak veggies into so I don't have to eat them 🙂 My daughter and I are loving strawberry/spinach smoothies! @gracieslp@gmail.com
This was so good. I loved how roasting the strawberries made them taste so much more intensely…strawberry-ey! lol I added a frozen banana instead of using ice. My husband and 4 y/o loved it too!
Do you think you could freeze the roasted strawberries in their juice for smoothies etc later? Strawberries are a great price right now but I'm always battling freezer burn when I just pop them in freezer bags. I thought this might help them last longer and then I could do a bunch without having to roast them for every smoothie.
My favorite smoothie is: Almond Milk, Banana, Peanut Butter, ice and spinach.

I actually really like your Avena shake. I only add 1 tbsp of sugar and switch the rest of the sugar for 1-2 tbsp of Hershey's chocolate drink mix. I also add a little vanilla and a little less cinnamon (or sometimes omit it). It's SO good!!

My favorite smoothie recipe is based on one called "Muscle Power" I used to get from a lunch place called "Evergreen Deli" in Englewood Cliffs, NJ. My version is my go-to after a workout, especially one that involves weights!
Unsweetened vanilla almond milk
Two generous tablespoons of PB2 (real peanut butter will work, too, and is richer, but I love PB2)
One banana (frozen is best!)
Honey
I blend it all together with ice and occasionally sprinkle in some chia of flax seeds. The result is insanely delicious and perfect for after a workout!

Lately my favorite smoothie has been frozen strawberries with some milk, OJ concentrate, chia seeds, and spinach, with a drizzle of agave to add some sweetness since the frozen strawberries have been on the sour side. Thanks so much for the chance to win!
I like to stay basic, easy to make while my one year old is having breakfast, but full of nutrients to help me keep up with him! 1/2-3/4 c strawberries, 1/2 c plain yogurt (I don't do refined sugar, but if you do, can sub your favorite flavor!), 2 c spinach, dollop of honey :), 1/2 banana and a handful of ice! If I need more of a boost, I'll throw in some quick cook oats. Contact me at weish005@umn.edu – thank you!!
I don't drink smoothies myself but make one every day for my two year old. I usually include spinach, banana, seasonal fruit (right now we're doing strawberries and grapes), and milk or yogurt.

My favourite smoothie is a green smoothie with a handful of spinach and kale, some almond or coconut milk and peaches or strawberries (or really any fruit!) so easy and delicious. I use a Magic Bullet which is great but can only do single servings – would LOVE the Vitamix!!
Contact at jennifer.johnson403 [at] gmail [dot] com – thanks 🙂
My favorite smoothie is the Green Goblin
1 medium or large ripe avocado
1 1/2 cup fresh pineapple
1 Tbs honey
1 1/2 cup orange juice
2 tsp lime juice (optional)
1/4 tsp coconut meat or flavor
2 ice cubes–or a handful
And you can also make popsicles out of them too.
Love the idea of cottage cheese for protein. Hate protein powders because they usually have artificial sweeteners in them, and don't like the taste of those.
My favorite recipe is whatever is on hand and quick! I like to add chia and it seems to keep me full longer, frozen banana to make it thick, and whatever frozen fruit I have, some sliced almonds.

I love green smoothies! Kale, avocado, green apple w/ almond milk, and sometimes I throw in a few almonds, too.

My favorite smoothie is the combination of kale, baby spinach, cantaloupe, strawberries, 1/2 apple, baby carrots, lowfat yogurt, and a few grapes (PLUS a lttle water or any preferred liquid and a few cubes of ice). The grapes make it sweet to cut the bitter of the kale! It's a lot but I get my veggies and fruits in!
Thank you so much! –LaQuita Cox-King (laquitaking254@gmail.com)
Strawberries, banana, yogurt and honey!
I'm so boring – mixed berries + banana + greek yogurt is my go to smoothie… However, if I won the vitamix, I'd start adding greens as well – which would save me a ton at my local juice bar!

What a great giveaway! My favorite smoothie is storng, cold coffee (sweetened the way you like it), milk, 1/2 c. vanilla greek yogurt, chia (if you soak them in the liquid overnight (the coffee is good for this) they aren't crunchy in the smoothie), and a few handfuls of spinach and ice. Tastes like a cold coffee drink, but you get your veggies too!

My favorite smoothie recipe is:
1 c. spinach
1 c. unsweetened almond milk
1/4 sliced avocado
1/2 banana (preferably already frozen in the freezer for an hour to make the smoothie extra creamy)
1 tsp. chia seeds for those omega-3s!
It's not over the top sweet, and you can add a dash of stevia or honey into it, but I think it's suuuuuuuuuper creamy and filling. Perfect for a light breakfast or lunch on the go!
My favorite smoothie is pineapple, strawberry and banana. I will have to try your idea of cottage cheese for added protein!

I don't make a lot of smoothies, but I do like to make milkshakes, and then throw in some protein powder so I can pretend that it's at least sort of healthy. I don't usually manage to convince myself of this, but I really love chocolate milkshakes, and at least this way I get some extra protein. 🙂

My favorite smoothie usually involves some variation of kale, a banana, strawberries, chia seeds, and greek yogurt with a tiny bit of honey.

Hmm… so many recipes, only one vitamix! I love to do frozen 1/2 banana and 1/2 cup strawberries, vanilla almond milk (or milk of your choice), 1 TBSP almond or cashew butter, 1/2 Cup cottage cheese.

If i have spinach or kale, i may throw some in, either way it's great, but i bet it would blend up much better in a vitamix 🙂

I'm a green smoothie lover… 1-2 cups spinach, 1-2 cups kale, 12 oz water (to help the greens break down), two bananas, two apples, 1 cup blueberries, 3 T flax seed… and occasionally I'll add cinnamon. I drink a smoothie every morning. What a great giveaway! Abbiesolberg at gmail

My favorite smoothies all have peanut butter in them, I don't really follow a recipe, rather I use whatever fruits & other ingredients I have on hand. I'm a runner, so I ALWAYS have bananas, so I most commonly make banana-based smoothies. The general recipe is somethig like this:
1 banana
some (1/4 cup) peanut butter
yogurt (I prefer vanilla, but will use whatever I have on hand)
1/4 c oatmeal (or other grains, such as flax)
blend these up, then add enough Almond milk to thin it out enough to be drinkable.
Enjoy! 🙂 Candy
Roasted banana, oatmeal, almond milk and maple syrup shake. YUM!

Hi!
I don't have a set favorite, so I will share with you my go to recipie.

-8oz of soymilk/almond/milk of your choice
-2cups of Kale, spinach, and chard greens mixed
-1 banana
-1 Apple
-1 handful of blackberries (minus1 for immediate eating)
-2 scoop Protein powder
When blended I add the plumped up Chia and spoon stir it into the smoothie, I also share this with my husband everymorning. Although on days I know I am going to be busy I will bottle the whole thing and drink it the first couple hours of my day before eating my mid morning snack.
Hope you like it, *side note I like to switch up the fruit every now and then to keep it interesting and to avoid smoothie burnout. 🙂

Man, my smoothies are so boring compared to everyone else's… just Greek yogurt (frozen… I prefer mixed berries flavor, but I buy several varieties), frozen banana, and 1/2 cup skim milk. The frozen stuff keeps me from having to add ice. My Ninja can't really handle ice well. I hate getting chunks in the bottom of the smoothie. I could SO use a new, heavy duty blender!!! ~Karen @ karenpagedave at yahoo dot com

My favorite smoothies are usually strawberry and banana, but I will use whatever fruit is in season. The secret to a nice, thick smoothie is to freeze the fruit ahead of time.
I usually use the following (in no specific measurements): frozen fruit, splash of fruit juice, and vanilla yogurt.

My go-to is a berry smoothie. Go heavy on the frozen mixed berries (raspberries, blueberries, blackberries), add a nice 2-3 tbsp of honey, 1 tbsp of greek yogurt, maybe a splash of coconut water or regular water, just to have some liquid for easy blending, and chia seeds or flax meal. Then whip it up!

My favorite smoothie recipe is one I make every day. I found a green superfood (brand: Amazing Grass) at a local grocery store. I purchased two flavors: Goji & Acai, and Pineapple Lemongrass. My favorite is the berry. I combine one scoop of the green powder, one rounded teaspoon Gold Standard vanilla whey protein, ten ounces of flax milk, about a half cup greek yogurt, and a handful of ice cubes (6-8, depending on the size) and blend until smooth.
My family has a VitaMix but now that I live more or less independently, it sure would be nice to have my own! My email address is wagnercb [at] mail [dot] masters [dot] edu.
Good luck to e-v-e-r-y-o-n-e! 🙂

My favorite is a peanut butter and chocolate version of a green monster. Almond milk, nonfat greek yogurt, a couple handfuls of spinach, frozen banana, a tbsp of peanut butter and a teaspoon of cocoa powder. The color is awful, but it is incredibly delicious!

My favorite smoothie is almond coconut milk, frozen mango, 1/2 banana & protein powder. It's so yummy you don't have to use any sweetener. I would be so nice to have a vitamix to make it in. I'm going to try chia seeds in my next smoothie. Thanks for the giveaway. Dawn L. dawnrl31@msn.com
I love spinach, green apple, pineapple, and banana! Yum!

My favorite is what I call my "Green Power Smoothie". It consists of 1 cup of torn kale, 1 banana (preferably frozen), 1/2 of a Bartlett pear, 1/2 of an avacado, 1 cup of green grapes, 1 cup of orange juice, 1 cup of pineapple chunks with juices and a handful of ice. So yummy, just try it and you have to love it. The avacado gives it a great creamy texture, the banana and pineapple gives it sweetness, and the kale gives it the freshest vibrant green color.

I make my smoothies in a food processor. Did you know that food processors aren't too fond of liquid and like to spit the liquid back at you through the seam when you're blending? It's fun.
My favorite smoothie:
1 cup of frozen strawberries
1 pre-chopped frozen ripe banana
1 tsp of Matcha
2 packets of truvia
1 cup of unsweetened almond milk

my favorite smoothie is the glowing green smoothie, mainly because i have a hard time eating my fruits and veggies, so this is how i meet my daily requirement!

Heatherfoley154@gmail.com
My favorite smoothie yet is frozen peaches, frozen banana, frozen strawberries, ground oatmeal (I grind it in my small processor until it is like a powder and store it in a ziplock and use it as a protein source), a handful of kale, and whatever juice I have in the fridge.

Gina,
Thank you so much for your amazing site! You and your recipes have been part of my 18 month journey to lose over 50lbs (after being well overweight at 23)! I am a foodie and have loved every recipe of yours I have tried. The following smoothie recipe combines two things I love: protein and pina coladas!
½ cup low-fat cottage cheese or yogurt (I used ¼ cup each)
1 scoop vanilla protein powder (I used MRM Rich Vanilla)
½ cup fresh or frozen pineapple
¼ teaspoon coconut extract
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup coconut milk (I used SILK)
2 packets stevia (or other sweetener)
10-15 ice cubes (use more if using fresh pineapple)
Thanks! I can be reached at: pmorse@sms-results.com

1.5 cups frozen, unsweetened fruit (raspberries, blueberries)
2 T coconut milk
1 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 T chia seeds
1 scoop good quality whey protein powder
1 scoop Dynamic Greens (Strawberry Kiwi)
Blend once, then add five ice cubes, run the blender again. So, so good. And good for you.
I don't really have a smoothie recipe, I just throw in whatever fruits I have on hand, some greek yogurt and milk. I sometimes add peanut butter or chia seeds to it.
My favorite is an "Almond Joy"

My favorite smoothie is a green smoothie! I like to take Almond Milk, Kale or Spinach or even Swiss Chard(whatever I have on hand really!), Avocado, Banana and Strawberry Greek yogurt. Sometimes I'll even add some protein powder or even a little honey! This is from someone who has burnt out too many blenders as well as food processors, a Vitamix would really come in handy!

Coconut milk, pineapple, frozen strawberries, & chia seeds. Blend and Enjoy 🙂
laci.anderson@live.com 🙂
I like to think of a smoothie as a complete meal substitute for breakfast! Fresh spinach & kale, fresh pineapple, fresh banana, frozen mango, frozen cherries, half an avocado, 1/4 cup blueberry fat free greek yogurt, and some Ceres tropical juice (papaya, pineapple etc), and a liquid omega-3 vitamin. Use frozen fruits so that I don't have to add ice (my blender can't handle it), and do it all in stages – juice and leafy veggies first so they break down more, then frozen stuff, then the gentle soft stuff (banana, avocado). Staging my blending is also the only way my terrible blender can handle it all! :-p Avocado makes it look kind of like you're drinking guacamole but gives it a super creamy texture and all those vitamins! – contact is Varda1982@hotmail.com / Drew Scheidenhelm

Wow, I would love this. Here's one of my smoothie recipes.
Greek Smoothie
Ingredients:
6 oz. plain, nonfat Greek yogurt
8 oz. raw cucumber, washed and sliced
1/4 small cantaloupe, cubed
2 packets of Stevia
Directions:
Add yogurt, cucumber, and melon to a blender being sure the yogurt is on the bottom. This will help with the blending process. Sprinkle on 2 packets of Stevia. Blend to desired consistency (I liked having a few chunks of the fruit and vegetable throughout the smoothie. Enjoy!

I love Strawberries and will definitely be trying this recipe soon! I made this by accident one day and it is nutritious and delicious. I start all my smoothies with 5 or 6 organic romaine lettuce leaves. I blend this for about a minute to a minute and a half on liquefy. Then I add 1/2 cup of fresh pineapple, 1/3 a cup of shredded unsweetened coconut, 6 oz of Plain Greek Yogurt (which is a great source of protein), and 5 ice cubes. Then I blend until it's the consistency that I like. At this point, if I taste it and it's not sweet enough, I had 1/3 of a ripe banana (I keep them in the freezer) and tada— the best piña colada smoothie ever. I can even get the kids to drink this smoothie without asking about the "green stuff" in it. Please contact me via email at geekyma247 @ gmail dot com. I can't wait to start using the Vitamix! I've had dreams about owning a Vitamix! I had eventually planned to buy me one despite our tight financial situation currently. I keep reasoning to myself that it is not an expense but an investment in my health and the health of my family. .
Yum! My toddler and I always share a smoothie so we have 2tsp of PB2, a whole frozen banana, pineapple, and a tsp of chocolate sauce. Reach us at dwenski16@gmail 🙂

That's so interesting, I never would have thought to roast the strawberries! Yum!
My favorite smoothie is tropical with pineapple, mango, yogurt, almond milk, and chia seeds with dried coconut sprinkled on top!
My favorite right now is: unsweetened vanilla almond milk, frozen banana, plain nonfat greek yogurt, a couple TBLS pb2, frozen berries and sweetener. Sometimes I'll add a handful of spinach and some chia seeds.

I love anything chocolate and peanut butter. I like to mix 1 cup plain greek yogurt, 1 T cocoa powder, 2 T PB2 (powdered peanut butter), some ice and enough almond milk to get everything moving. Delicious!
coconut milk, 1/2 avacado, frozen strawberries, frozen blueberries. stephiemae2004@yahoo.com
I rarely use a recipe anymore, but my favorite is to use a handful of baby spinach, a lot of frozen blueberries or strawberries, a scoop of vanilla protein powder, some vanilla almond milk, and a bit of flaxseed. I use and love my Nutribullet, but I wouldn't mind winning a Vitamix. 🙂

I keep it simple with a cup of spinach, a banana, 1/2 cup to a cup of mixed berries and a cup of water. I like everything frozen for a thicker/colder treat. Sometimes I throw in some chia seeds.

3 C. (3 ounces) spinach (packed)
1 C. yogurt, kefir, or a non-dairy alternative like almond milk

Put the berries and spinach in the blender first, and add the yogurt and banana. Process, scraping down as needed. Blend until smooth and serve.

I love smoothies and this blog, so this post is like a double win. My favorite smoothie is: one banana, a cup of frozen berries (mostly strawberries, but sometimes I'll throw in some blueberries or raspberries), a scoop of chocolate protein powder, and enough vanilla greek yogurt or almond milk to make it blendable. The chocolate protein powder sounds strange, but I really like the taste it adds, and that + greek yogurt makes a nice little protein punch.
My e-mail address is shamarie87@gmail.com 🙂 Thanks Gina, for the blog – I've been meaning to comment on more of the awesome recipes and I suppose the prospect of winning something got me off my butt to do so 🙂

I can't say I have an overall favorite, but more a "for right now" favorite. It tends to change with what I'm craving and the time of the year. Lately, my favorite smoothie has been 1C almond milk, 1 scoop of Jay Robb Chocolate Whey protein powder, 1/2C dark cherries, Ice and water if needed. I also usually tend to put a little xantham gum in my smoothies, because a thicker smoothie tends to make me feel more satiated! I'm glad to see your smoothie includes cottage cheese, instead of greek yogurt. I LOVE greek yogurt, but am not a fan of it in my smoothies. I do use cottage cheese, often, though. I never thought of roasting the strawberries…I'll have to try it!

I've wanted a vita-mix for such a long time!! Love unsweetened coconut milk, banana, pineapple, hemp powder/chia seeds/crushed flaxseed (which ever I have handy of these three), baby spinach or kale and I'm good to go. I don't use ice as icy cold things take longer to digest! But on a hot summer day I will make an exception! eastwoman75@comcast.net
have never tried to make a protein smoothie – my son and I just make fun ones with a banana, almond milk, watermelon juice and vanilla yogurt.
I love just straight frozen blueberries thinned with milk. If you use buttermilk and a tiny bit of sugar it tastes like blueberry cheesecake!

Dying to add a vitamix to my kitchen brigade! My combos are simple: almond milk, any kind of frozen berries, banana, protein powder. easy peasy.

First let me say that my daughter-in-law makes wonderful smoothies for our grandson and herself all the time with her Vitamix blender. She uses it all the time to make a variety of foods, including peanut butter, especially when my son forgets and takes the jar to work. She just pops in the peanuts and there you are. When I visited she made wonderful smoothies for me with spinach, frozen fruit including strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, bananas, and chia seeds, almond milk and maybe some orange juice for sweetness. Those smoothies were wonderful and made me wish I had my own Vitamix. It is an amazing machine!

I discovered after owning a Vitamix it was better for me to learn how to construct a smoothie more then relying on recipes. Once I knew how to do so it was easy to make smoothies that suited my taste with what ever I had on hand.

1 frozen, super ripe banana
1/2c frozen cherries

2T flax meal
Put everything into a blender – consistency is thick, if you like it thinner add more almond milk or water. I call it the kitchen sinker because any frozen fruit combo can be used. Mydogconan@msn.com
I do a lot of different combinations….but here's my fav. I use my stick blender and do it right in my insulated travel cup. *** Banana (if they're getting soft I'll peel them, chunk them and put them in the freezer for smoothie use), Vanilla Almond milk, 1 Tbsp ground flax seed, 2 Tbsp PB2, handful of spinach, 3 or 4 ice cubes. cynthiac@solarus.net

Every morning: 1/2 c. nonfat plain yogurt (greek or regular), 1 frozen or fresh banana, handful of grapes, 1 c. frozen fruit (combination of whatever I have–blueberries, strawberries, mangos), 1 scoop vanilla protein powder. Keeps me satisfied until lunchtime no problem! r.lore@comcast.net

dianademos@gmail.com
Maybe this is not so much a smoothie, but I love to make frozen hot chocolate in the blender. I use 1 packet hot cocoa mix(the target brand coconut macaroon is my fave), a handful of ice, half cup milk, and a tablespoon of chocolate chips. Serve with a little whipped cream on top. Tastes almost like Starbucks double chocolatey chip, but better I think! I would love this blender so it would crush up my ice a little better than my current one.
jenni.mouritsen@gmail.com
My go to smoothie recipe is spinach, flax seed, frozen blueberries and yogurt.
You can click through to my profile to e-mail me.
I have 8 grown children and before smoothies were popular, I made what our family called banana drinks. I think they are really similar to Wendy's Frosties. 1 frozen banana, cocoa powder about 1 tablespoon and whatever milk you use. We use 2% but I have used powdered, almond milk, or fat free all with good results. Trick is to use frozen bananas and it will be thick like a Frostie. No need for sugar because the banana provides the right amount of sweetness.
I would love to have a Vitamix. Have been lusting after one for quite awhile!
itzterrismith@gmail.com
Thanks! Terri Smith
My favorite is a Mango green smoothie,

I tend to throw whatever I have in to my smoothies so it's hard to say what my favorite would be. One of the simpler ones would be frozen banana, peanut butter, chocolate protein powder, spinach and almond milk. Thanks for the chance to win! My Ninja just died after a year of use, this would be an awesome replacement!

I have lots of favorite smoothies, but I'm listing this one for Apple Pie Smoothie:
1 medium apple (I like Gala, Crispin, Pink Lady), cored and cut in chunks (no need to peel if you have a strong blender)
1/3 to 1/2 of one medium cucumber, peeled and cut in chunks
large handful of spinach, kale, lettuce, or other mild leafy green
1/2 medium avocado
2 Tbsp (30 ml) raw pumpkin seeds or walnuts
1-2 tsp (5-10 ml) cinnamon, to your taste (I like a lot of cinnamon)
1/2 tsp (2.5 ml) ground ginger
10-15 drops stevia liquid or 1-2 Tbsp (15-30 ml) agave nectar or maple syrup
1 cup (240 ml) plain or vanilla soy, almond or rice milk, very cold
1 scoop of your favorite protein powder, plain or vanilla (I used SunWarrior)
Place all ingredients in a high powered blender and blend until perfectly smooth (you can use a regular blender, but will likely have to blend in batches, or else use a bit more liquid). The smoothie will be very thick (I like to eat it with a spoon as a pseudo “pudding”), but if you like it thinner, add more milk or water until desired consistency is reached. Consume immediately. Makes one massive or two regular servings. And it really tastes like apple!
Note: made this way, the smoothie isn’t extremely cold. If you prefer a chilled smoothie, ensure that your apple and cucumber are refrigerated before using, or add a few ice cubes to the mix when blending.
If I win the Vitamix, you can contact me at gbgaubert@gmail.com
Every morning I make smoothies with frozen berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries), a banana, an orange, flaxmeal, cinnamon, greek yogurt, peanut butter, almond milk and water. Love em!
anderjoy@gmail.com
My favorite smoothie has a banana, spinach and whatever else is around! PB2, berries, apple, almost any produce that is 'on its way out' can be used. And I usually add water (but maybe milk or juice if I'm feeling crazy!) alliem@inbox.com
I've never roasted strawberries that sounds delish! Thanks for the recipe! alexandra.l.maxwell@gmail.com Alexandra Maxwell

Cant go wrong with a frozen banana, about 3 (full) handfuls of spinach, 1 cup of almond milk, 1/2 cups of vanilla greek yogurt, a big ole' scoop of peanut butter, and about a tablespoon of flaxseeds. I think it would taste better coming from a vitaMix blender, though….
Favorite smoothy is a green smoothy with spinach, green apple, greek yogurt and a splash of regular milk or almond milk. Usually needs a little sweetener as well and I usually use agave or honey.

I can't wait to try out all these different smoothie recipes listed 🙂 I like to make so many kinds of smoothies, but one of my favorite smoothies for summer is light and refreshing and tastes like a "Watermelon Julius": I always loved Orange Julius's when I was little, and I love the taste of watermelon so I decided to experiment one day. I haven't made it in a while, but I think all I used was unsweetened vanilla almond milk, watermelon balls that I froze , ice and a little sweetener. It came out light and frothy-great for a warm summer day! linsname1031@yahoo.com
PB smoothie…haven't made smoothies in a long time but hoping to start up again soon!
Gina,
My all time favorite smoothie is super simple: 3 peeled fresh Georgia free-stone peaches (farmer's market are always so much more flavorful than grocery store's), 1/2 cup 2% milk, 1 cup ice, and a little sugar blended up. Delish!
kekeeth@gmail.com
My favorite is the Skinny Green Monster Smoothie:
Ingredients:
1 small frozen ripe banana, peeled

1/2 cup plain fat-free Greek yogurt (I used Chobani)
Directions:
Place all the ingredients into the blender, add ice (optional) and blend until smooth.
Since I have this almost every day, I do like to change up the recipe from time to time by substituting the almond milk for coconut milk or substitute the peanut butter for PB2. I sometimes add coconut flakes and/or chia seeds.

5 oz fresh cut pineapple, 1/2 sliced banana, 2 oz almond milk and ice
Yum!
Great idea roasting the strawberries! Can't wait to try it.
My go to smoothie is a handful of spinach, carrots, grapes, blueberries, and lots of strawberries. I add a bit of flax to it, but I think I might start trying cottage cheese to give it that lasting power through the day.

We really got to like a blend of spinach, coconut milk, frozen banana, strawberries, PB2 powdered peanut butter and honey greek yogurt!
Simple, healthy, delicious: Kefir, chia seeds, strawberry, kale, banana, strawberry protein powder. YUM! Would love this amazing blender to make it in!

Favorite smoothiw would be spinach bananas and strawberries with greek yogurt. andriak@zoom-dsl.com
Ahh! First of all, I have been DROOLING over the Vitamix since I first saw it demo'd YEARS ago…it had me at the entire apple it pureed into a smoothie with ease.
My FAVORITE smoothie recipe is one I've tweaked over time—I keep all my fruit (bananas, pineapple chunks, and strawberries) in the freezer. This way, I never have to add ice to get the perfect smoothie consistency!
Ingredients:
½ cup frozen pineapple chunks
½ cup frozen strawberries
½ cup frozen banana slices (sometimes, these are more of a banana CHUNK, as they tend to stick together)
¼ cup almond milk (you can substitute with any non-dairy milk you like)
1 cup leafy greens (I like kale, but spinach works well, too!)
¼ cup vanilla greek yogurt (you can use plain, if you like, but this adds just the right amount of sweet, in my opinion)
Drop everything in your blender and puree until the entire smoothie is green, and not "leafy" any longer*. The almond milk helps everything to blend together, and keeps you from getting those leafy green CHUNKS left behind in your glass…and your teeth. A definite "must" for that breakfast smoothie on your way to the office!
Side note: if you're lucky enough to be the proud OWNER of a Vitamix already, this will be pretty instantaneous. Am I the only one who stares in awe and wonder (with a tiny amount of drool, perhaps) at the Vitamix it seems EVERY top smoothie chain owns a herd of, as they blend my smoothie?
paige.mankin@gmail.com
Enjoy!
I like my smoothies on the thicker side, so 1 cup fresh organic strawberries, 1 organic banana, 1 cup organic almond milk, and half a cup of small semi-sweet chocolate chips!

I am not a cottage cheese person, but I may have to try this…
My absolute favorite is pomegranate juice, fat free vanilla frozen yogurt (like Stoneyfield), mixed frozen berries.
Here's my favorite recipe:
Kick That Cold! Green Smoothie
1 cup fresh packed spinach
1 cup orange juice
1 cup ice
1/2 frozen banana
1/2 cup non-fat vanilla Greek yogurt
1 tbsp honey
1/4 tsp cardamom
Blend together all ingredients until smooth. Healthy and delicious!
Makes 1 extra large serving
You can reach me at CheriSlaughter@gmail.com
I love the red color Vitamix!!!
Oh My, I've never thought of adding cottage cheese and your roasted strawberries sound like this will become my favorite smoothie. I'm addicted to strawberry banana, or chocolate banana (using Walden Farms chocolate syrup). I can't wait to try the cottage cheese. Thanks. Sandy

My favorite smoothie recipe is the classic Peanut Butter Banana smoothie. I use a packet of the weight watchers chocolate smoothie mix (you can use protein powder, too…we like Trader Joe's), 1 tablespoon of PB2, 1 cup of milk, a frozen or ripe banana (we freeze our ripe bananas so we can use them for Smoothies without wasting them), 1/4 c. of water and ice cubes to taste. Blend and it's delicious!

My 14 year old daughter is not a breakfast eater but she will drink smoothies and she can take them with her on the way to school. I make many different smoothies but right now this is our favorite:
Berry, Oat, Walnut smoothie:
1 Frozen banana
1/4 Cup walnuts
1 Cup old fashioned oats (uncooked)
1 Cup frozen unsweetened berries (strawberries, blueberries, mixed, your choice)
1 Container (5.3 oz.) Dannon Oikos Greek yogurt (vanilla or plain)
1 Cup unsweetened almond milk
1 Tbs. Agave nectar
Add all ingredients to blender in the order given and blend on high until smooth. If it's too thick you can add a little more almond milk or water to get it to the consistency you like.
2 servings = 12 WW+ points
3 servings = 8 WW+ points
4 servings = 6 WW+ points
There are endless ways to enjoy smoothies. I sometimes add kale or spinach, throw in some chia seeds after blending, add ground flaxseed, use orange juice in place of almond milk, use a small can of crushed pineapple in place of the berries, etc. Mix it up according to your mood!
BTW LOVE the Skinnytaste website. Thanks for all the recipes, inspiration and ideas. Have a great day everyone!!

I'm fairly new to the Smoothie craze so I don't have a favorite yet….I think I would like anything with a pineapple, coconut taste. dayfamily6@windstream.net
My favorite smoothie recipe is really easy and can be prepped way ahead of time:
Get a whole bunch of kale, parsley, apples and bananas and sandwich bags
Put one cup kale (packed), 1/2 cup parsley (loose), 1 banana and 1 apple (chopped) into a sandwich bag.
Stick all of your pre-made bags into the freezer (good for 3 months)
Once you're ready to make your smoothie, put all your ingredients in the blender, coat with water and blend! Easy peasy and so delicious!

My favorite smoothie recipe is a "summer smoothie"- 1 Banana, 1 Orange, 1/2 cup of frozen mango and pineapple, 1 cup of coconut milk, 1/4 cup of flaxseeds..
Banana, strawberries, spinach, vanilla almond milk, some crushed ice, maybe some greek yogurt if I'm feeling wild. Sweeten with splenda. Would love a new blender!
I love pumpkin and with this smoothie I can have it year round – 1 can pumpkin, 2 cups milk, 1/2c brown sugar (I use Splenda) and 2 tsp cinnamon.
My favorite smoothie recipe is chia seeds, rolled outs, spinach, a splash of OJ, pineapple, and ice. It is an unattractive shade of green, but the sweetness in the pineapple really makes this healthy smoothie tasty as well!

My favorite smoothie is a dessert one and not in line with the mantra of skinnytaste, but as a kid my uncle would always make smoothies… okay, its more like a milkshake, with sprite and neapolitan ice cream, and to top if off we would dip our popcorn in it… odd I know, but you really should try it. 🙂 🙂 – camilla

About a year ago, my mother-in-law was really into green smoothies, and I was a little weird about drinking something so green. However, about that time I discovered your Skinny Green Monster Smoothie and have never looked back! It's full of my favorite flavors, and it's my go-to post-workout drink or when I want something quick and healthy, but not too heavy.
Mean Green Protein shake!! Grind some fresh flax seed, then add: Handful of ice, big handful of spinach and or kale, cinnamon, frozen blueberries, pineapple, agave, and water or milk. Delish!!!

I love anything with strawberries and bananas !
xrodri98@gmail.com
Spinach, Banana, Blueberries, Strawberries, Cocoa Powder, and 1 cup of hot coffee. I keep all of the produce in the freezer so I don't even have to add ice to make it cold. That keeps me from feeling like I even have to add yogurt; there's no ice to counter-act so it's already pretty smooth.
ashley.butler.watson@gmail.com
This smoothie is a winner! Roasting those strawberries really brings out the flavor. Got to try it especially with the cottage cheese who what have thought it can make the smoothie cream since I usually use yogurt.
My favorite recipe is:
5 raw almonds
1 red apple
1 banana
3/4 cup nonfat greek yogurt
1/2 cup nonfat milk
1/4 tsp cinnamon
ice

Tropical smoothie: 1/2 banana (freeze the other half for smoothies later in the week), vanilla flavored Greek yogurt, apple juice, frozen mango chunks, flax seed, coconut extract or fresh grated coconut to give it that pina colada taste. Alternatively, use fresh mango if in season and add a few ice cubes.

Roasting Strawberries is an interesting concept! I'm going to have to try it. I enjoy berry smoothies – handfuls of frozen blueberries, blackberries, strawberries, along with a cup of yogurt or milk, and a cup of ice. It's like dessert! If I were to win the drawing, you can contact me at melodyanncurtis@gmail.com. Thank you for a wonderful blog that has nutritious ideas and recipes. I get your emails every day and enjoy seeing your recipes and trying them out!
okay just had this for breakfast and I have to say I officially have a new favorite. Been drinking smoothies for years but never had roasted strawberries and never used cottage cheese. Thanks for the Vitamix contest wanted one for years.
samama@suddenlink.net
Almost every morning: 1 cup almond/coconut milk, 1 banana, 1/2 cup FF greek yogurt, 1 Tbs chia seeds, 1 Tbs ground flax, Stevia to taste. Occasionally I will add spinach or fresh berries if available.
My breakfast every day is a smoothie that I adapted from Charity Lighten's "7 Day Kickstart to Better Health". It makes my body happy! 1/2 cup carrot juice, 1 large, ripe banana, 1 tbsp. ground golden flaxseed, 2-3 cups baby spinach, 1 tbsp. raw honey, 1 HEAPING cup frozen berry medley from Costco. The berries keep the smoothie an appetizing color.
My favorite is pretty plain and simple but I use milk, PB2, banana, strawberries, and ice.
elebaba32@gmail.com
I've never roasted strawberries and have been looking for a good smoothie receipe to incorporate chia seeds! Here is one smoothie recipe that is my go-to:

I use our blender multiple times during the week, most often for two things: green drink and blender pancakes/waffles.
Green drink: like most others: spinach, plain yogurt, oj, some combination of banana, peach or mango. No red or blue berries for us as the color turns brown and my kids then think it must be gross.
Blender waffles/pancakes: 1c wheat berries (soft white wheat is the best) 1 1/4c milk, 1T brown sugar, 1/4c oil, 2 eggs, 1/4tsp salt, 1T baking powder. Blend wheat berries and milk 2-3 minutes (add more milk if too thick) then add eggs, oil, and remaining dry ingredients. So fast, so easy, and so good!

Now that it's finally getting warmer where I live, I have been starting to make my favorite smoothie for breakfast every morning! Pretty sure I adapted it from your green monster recipe… but I use a sliced frozen banana, a couple spoonfuls of plain greek yogurt, a handful of baby spinach, a spoonful of natural peanut butter, top it off with Chia seeds and pour in plain unsweetened almond milk! It's soooooo good! I usually scarf it down faster than I should….

My daughter and I love tropical smoothies..so we generally have frozen pineapple, banana, mango and add vanilla yogurt. She doesn't like the taste of protein powders so we try to use a higher protein yogurt. I would love to drink more smoothies but for me they are too high in carbs…SHE loves them and a VitaMix would be perfect for her to use.
A favorite smoothie recipe is…Frozen mixed berries, almond milk, ice & honey. We usually have this in place of ice cream at night 😉
Thanks, Kim

HUGE Vitamix fan! During the week, we always do hearty smoothies for dinner twice and then again for Saturday lunches as a family. Our Vitamix works overtime on smoothies, pancake batters, and soups/gazpachos.
My favorite smoothie recipe: 1 raw beet, 2 cups frozen kale, 1 apple (peel on, not cored), handful of baby carrots, 2 tsp ginger, one frozen banana, and one cup almond milk! It's raw and delicious goodness. My second favorite: 2 cups frozen kale, half frozen avocado, 1 container vanilla chobani, 1 scoop Sun Warrior Vanilla, and 1 cup almond milk.

Love to make smoothies with frozen mixed berries…especially during the summer months…so refreshing…just let it defrost some before putting in the blender and put in last~I'll add greek yogurt, banana, honey, and sneak in some kale, or spinach~for my kids, I add a little lemon lime sherbert~
I'm new to smoothie making so I'm still trying to find the best recipes that works for my family. What I do know is I'm about fresh fruit, milk and ice. Simple. I'm definitely going to try the cottage cheese idea!
If I were to be picked (please!) at Twitter I'm @stacievining
My favorite smoothie is an idea I got from my favorite smoothie at 9 Fruits in Franklin, TN. Ice, banana, peanut butter, and chocolate soy milk. I could drink that all day every day.
Releasing the sweetness of the strawberries by a bit of caramelization is inspired. Pineapple, apples, kiwis and pears are more candidates, and it gives a kitchen-oriented foodie more ways to enjoy smoothies. Thanks for a great blog.

This sounds like a great recipe! I like just mixing up whatever I have on hand, mostly frozen raspberries, a splash of kefir, almond milk, spinach, and a banana. Spinach makes it healthy, right? 🙂
tephiebird@gmail.com
ohmygoodness! I thought I'd given up smoothies forever because I can't eat yogurt anymore (my body doesn't like the acidity of it). But cottage cheese instead? That sounds like a great idea. I'd love to try it with frozen blueberries & perhaps a bit of real maple syrup.
My contact info is lauravein (at) gmail (dot) com
Never thought of using cottage cheese for the added protein but will sure try it tonight. One of my favorites and I don't usually measure anything except for the unsweetened almond milk (1 cup) is to add 1 frozen banana, handfull of strawberries or blueberries and a large handful of organic baby spinach…..if it needs to be sweeter I might add a teaspoon or so of raw (liquid) sugar.

1/2 frozen banana
Occasionally I throw in 1/4 fresh strawberries as well!

I just toss in whatever frozen/fresh fruit I have, add a handful of spinach and 1/2 scoop of whey protein powder (flavorless). I never make the same smoothie twice.
My favorite smoothie recipe is grinding up oatmeal and chia seeds, adding almond milk, lemon pie yogurt, a bit of vanilla and frozen raspberries, add sugar if necessary. So good!!!!!

I love making smoothies! My husband and I make one almost every morning before heading out to brave traffic and work for the day.
One of our favorites is this blueberry one we made up one day:
frozen blueberries
soy milk
a hefty scoop of plain greek yogurt (whatever brand we can find for in large tubs)
half a banana
cup of ice
2 scoops of protein powder
2 tablespoons of PB2
Pretty simple!

I have no real set recipe for smoothies. I love just searching my fridge and freezer for anything I can find. But mostly I add greek yogurt, ice, frozen fruit, and maybe a banana into my 30 year old blender. The end results always turn out so yummy! Would love a blender!

This looks like a good recipe. I've never roasted strawberries before. My favorite smoothie recipe is 1 cup almond milk, 1 scoop vanilla protein powder, 1/2 Tbsp good cocoa powder, a pinch of Truvia, 1 cup frozen cherries, and a little ice. It's really delicious! My e-mail is katebug_1@juno.com

This smoothie kept me healthy while on chemo: orange juice, banana, fresh mango, plums, strawberries, blueberries, vanilla, yogurt. Judydarsky@aol.com
I like to mix frozen mango, strawberries, banana, a handful of baby spinach and plain yogurt. When my oldest son was younger, this was how I got some dark leafy greens into him. He was not a veggie eater.
I like most smoothies with fruit. I haven't tried too many with spinach and kale…maybe something new to do over the summer!

I honestly just tried it yesterday but it was so good that's an instant favorite! A chocolate avocado smoothie, I know it sounds weird but it's so yummy! I do a quarter of an avocado, tbsp of cacao powder, tbsp of brown sugar, 3/4 cup almond milk, 1/4 banana, tsp of vanilla extract, and one tbsp of chia seeds. It's lucious chocolate that's guilt free in a glass. 🙂 samantha.martin29@gmail.com

Love strawberry, bananas and blueberry with yogurt smoothie!
starrmo@cox.net
I've never thought to roast strawberries but I am sure it will concentrate the flavor. I am not much on smoothies at this time, so I have no favorite recipe. I think if I were to make a smoothie, it would have to a berry one! Blueberries, blackberries, greek yogurt, honey.
smarshall621@gmail.com

I like all smoothies but I love green smoothies best. Mangoes, banana frozen, kale or spinach and some milk and greek yogurt, yum! akaren2@comcast.net
I'm a huge fan of cottage cheese and recommend it to all my patients. I like to add it to soups, grains, potatoes, fish salads (tuna, salmon etc), smoothies and enjoy it all by it's lonesome. People are put off by it's lumpy appearance, but if they get past that (mixing in to other foods helps) then they are usually converts.
Your site is great – I recommend it all the time!

I don't really have a recipe, I just have whatever I have on hand. But I should look into adding kale and or a protein powder.
Green Smoothie
– a handful of greens (spinach, kale or mice d greens)
– half an apple
– 1/3 of a ripe pear
– 2-3 stalks of celery
– 1/3-1/2 of a frozen banana
– 1 cup of water
Blend until smooth. This sounds like it wouldn't be good but I drink it every morning (or a variation depending on what fruits and veggies I have in the house). Sometimes I also add ground chia seeds.

This morning smoothie looks delicious! I love how it incorporates dairy for protein.
For my favourite smoothie actually satisfies the sweet/chocolate craving I get as soon as I wake up: Chop us a banana into the magic bullet, add about 1 cup of whatever dairy I have on hand (usually low-fat cow's milk), 3-4 tablespoons of natural peanut butter, and a heaping tablespoon of cocoa powder. Sometimes I'll add rolled oats, honey, ground flax, or cinnamon.

I love smoothies with almond milk, spinach, berries, frozen banana and vanilla. Mmm!
Frozen mango, banana, orange juice. My son says it tastes like jamba juice 🙂
I love to put whole carrots and quinoa in my smoothies. My favorite right now is protein carrot cake:
1/4 cup chopped, frozen carrots
1/4 cup coconut water
1/4 cup no sugar added soy milk or Vanilla Greek Yogurt
1/2 banana or 1/4 cup apple sauce
1/4 cup raw oatmeal, cooked quinoa, or Uncle Sam's cereal
A dash of cinnamon or ground cardamon
Sometimes I stir in some raisins unless I'm making it for my nieces. I also add spinach to almost every smoothie…so if you don't mind green "carrot cake" I highly recommend it!

My mom turned me on to throwing a handful of baby carrots in my smoothies. You can't taste them at all (I'm typically NOT a carrot fan) and its easy to sneak am extra serving of vegetables into my breakfast!

P.S. you're blog is amazing – we have dinners from your site probably every other night, I don't know what I'd do without it!
I make a dairy free mango smoothie. Frozen mango chunks, coconut milk, mango passion fruit coconut milk yogurt, cardamom, and vanilla. So so good.

I see the combinations are endless and would be efficient to make in the Vitamix kcf3@comcast.net
Vanilla greek yogurt (just a little), almond milk, Hershey's Dark Cocoa powder, peanut butter, frozen banana, few pieces of strawberry (no matter how little, it still turns pink!)
Right now all I have to make them is a teeny food processor that is on its last legs. I so want to experiment with different combinations and adding veggies. The chemist in me is antsy to do so.

I like using frozen bananas in green smoothies in lieu of ice & sweeteners. A good protein smoothie is spinach, unsweetened almond milk, strawberries, banana and almonds (almonds must be soaked overnight or at least 8hrs), use frozen banana or berries.

My favorite smoothie is very, very simple. OJ, strawberries and raspberries.
osugirl713@hotmail.com
honestly my favorite smoothie recipe is less of a recipe and just a technique; i use 53 grams of light vanilla flavored yogurt (greek or regular), a healthy pour of water, a half to whole pack of stevia, frozen bananas and frozen fruit. if i'm making strawberry banana i use more banana, but if i'm using any combination of pineapple/papaya/peaches/mango i use just a few slices to add sort of creaminess?

Wow … I would love the Vitamix, and these are all great ideas for smoothies! I feel kind of "noncreative," as my normal smoothie is coconut water, Isopure zero carb vanilla protein powder, chia seeds, and a frozen banana. I love strawberries, but never thought of roasting them. I may have to try that. 🙂
If I would be lucky enough to win, you may contact me at mmyrick116@aol.com. Thanks!
Chocolate protein powder, banana, frozen mixed berries and water. It's delicious and nutritious!

I wish I had a favorite recipe, but I don't because we sadly don't own a blender. 🙁 I would LOVE a Vitamix though and have heard wonderful praise about the brand from a friend! I do love smoothies though and know my husband and I would benefit greatly from being able to make healthy breakfasts and snacks at home with a Vitamix!

Woohoo! My favorite is the one I have every morning: 3/4 c milk, bit of vanilla (if not using vanilla almond milk), 1 tablespoon of peanut butter, 1/2 banana, handful of spinach (or 1/6 a frozen container) and 1/4 c oatmeal. I make it an night and then just blend in the morning. The oatmeal in it helps keep me full until lunch time.
My favorite smoothie is a tropical mix with raspberries and lime juice, vanilla protein and spinach. Nice and tart.

I love the classic milk, frozen banana, pb smoothie!
Silk Unsweetened Vanilla Almond milk, 1tbsp peanut butter, half frozen banana, 5 frozen strawberries, ice & protein powder. Keeps me full through my morning workout & feeling great until lunch time.

If I were to win a Vitamix, I would literally have a heart attack. (In a good way.) Ever since I saw a demonstration at Whole Foods, I fell in love. And now I'll have to start adding cottage cheese to my smoothies…But anyway, my favorite protein smoothie recipe is quick and simple, and it tastes just like a milkshake! Here's what I use:
-1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
-1/2 small banana
-1 scoop of protein powder (My favorite flavors are Cellucor's red velvet cake batter, peanut butter marshmallow or cookies and cream.)
-1/2 T chia seeds
-1 T ground flax
-Sprinkle of xanthum gum
-Few drops vanilla extract
-Few drops of butter extract
-2 packs of Truvia
-A tons of ice!
After I blend, I stick it in the freezer for 15-20 minutes, and it tastes just like soft serve! Forget ice…this is much better!

I like to create a mango banana smoothie. If I need the protein, I add some protein powder, but I usually just make a regular smoothie without the protein because I got enough from other meals throughout the day. The mango banana smoothie is a half cup of frozen mango, half cup of frozen banana, and a cup of unsweetened almond milk. 175 calories, 51 g carbs, 3 g protein, 3 g fat, 7 g fiber, 35 g sugar. With a scoop of vanilla protein powder, it adds 120 calories, 2 g carbs, 24 g protein, 1 g fat, and 1 g sugar. Here are pictures of the macros:
Without protein powder – http://i.imgur.com/l4p96Ji.jpg
With protein powder – http://i.imgur.com/sb95ftt.jpg
For a really thick milkshake consistency, I just take out the almond milk altogether. I do not recommend that for the protein version, though.

I usually have protein shakes after hard workouts and for breakfast in the mornings. I also have a BIG sweet tooth. I combine 2 scoops of lean vanilla protein, 4 oz. of Madagascar Vanilla Kefir, 2 tablespoons of PB2 Chocolate (powdered peanut butter with chocolate!) and a cup of ice. It tastes like peanut butter cup cheesecake!! Sometimes I add a little water to thin it out, or switch out for regular PB2 or a banana.

They only smoothie I've ever made was the one was posted on here a few weeks ago, the Kale, Banana, Chia, Hemp Superfood Smoothie. I've been wanting to get into smoothies so I started with that one but didn't add the Chia seed because it was too expensive everywhere I went. So happy to hear it's at Target! I will be picking some up this weekend. (By the way, the link in this recipe above goes to the mixer and not the chia seed product page.;)) Here is that recipe again! Even my boyfriend liked it and I've yet to tell him there is Kale in it ;). It also came highly recommended by our new puppy, Alvin, who licked some off the floor when it came out the top of our rusty old blender because I didn't have the lid on tight enough! CHEERS!
Kale, Banana, Chia, Hemp Superfood Smoothie
3/4 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk (Almond Breeze)
1 pitted date
1 tbsp raw shelled hemp seeds (or seeds of your choice)
1/2 ripe medium banana
1/2 tbsp chia seeds
3/4 cup baby kale (or spinach)
1 cup ice

My go to is: Unsweetened vanilla almond milk, spinach, chia seeds and protein powder (usually vanilla variety). Some people think the spinach looks weird, but it doesn't really mess with the flavor much. I love it 😀
My son is a smoothie addict! We don't have a favorite smoothie recipe, we just keep lots of frozen fruit on hand, yogurt in the fridge and then mix and match with the fresh fruit on the counter that needs to get eaten! He'd love to upgrade to a vitamix from our aging blender!

Oooo I love the red vitamix!! My favorite color! 😉 I keep begging my husband to buy us one, but noooo!! 🙁 I do love my amazing and nutritionally powerful smoothie recipe (made in a small, messy and old blender!). Hope you try it!
1 1/2 C of Organic Unsweetened Almond Milk (as I can not have any dairy any more!)
Handful of Kale – about a cup
1/4 C of Blueberries
1 scoop of a plant-based protein, I use "Spiru-Tein" chocolate flavor (amazing probiotic, fiber, vitamin and mineral supplement. Spiru-tein also helps to thicken the smoothie, so it's more like a malt! Which helps to drink it slower!)
One tablespoon of chia seeds
One tablespoon of Almond Butter
1/4 teaspoon of Bee Pollen ( An absolute amazing superfood!! )
A little bit of Stevia if you need it.
Cheers to good health!! 😉

Hmm, it's tough to pick a favourite smoothie recipe… I guess I'd have to go with a peanut butter classic:
2 frozen bananas
1 tbsp PB2
1 cup skim milk
I usually add some flax seed too, but that depends on your taste. You can also add protein powder for an added kick- vanilla makes it sweeter and chocolate gives it a more dessert-like taste!

email: brooke.k.kunz@gmail.com
This looks so yummy! Can't wait to try it!!
A vitamix is at the very top of my "too expensive for right now" wish list!! Fingers crossed!!
My favorite smoothie is 1 c. milk, chocolate Shakeology (or another chocolate protein powder), half a banana, 1T PB2, and several ice cubes. Delish!

I don't have a smoothie recipe, but I'm want more because my son is not a breakfast eater. I'm hoping he would try smoothies. The strawberries with cottage cheese sounds promising because I think the protein would be good for him.

That Vitamix would look GREAT in my kitchen and that smoothly would look great in my hand 🙂

My favorite smoothie is a mix of frozen berries, unsweetened vanilla flavored coconut milk, some Greek yogurt, and a handful of spinach or kale.
I would love to win this blender. We currently have a nutribullet but we can only make one shake at a time. This becomes a hassle when my 3 yr old son, my husband and I want a smoothie for breakfast. This blender would be perfect.

1 T flax seed
15 raw almonds
1 whole small green banana
1 t maca powder

juice of 1/2 lemon
1 1/4 C water or coconut water

love a peanut butter banana smoothie in the morning. Protein on the go!
1 banana (frozen works best)
Scoop of peanut butter
About a cup of almond or soy milk
Some ice
If you use frozen bananas, you only need one or two ice cubes, so the smoothie doesn't get watered down!

I love all Smoothies and love these suggested recipes! If I win a Vitamix machine I would be much healthier and happier using it every day! Email me at Kathy_westfall65@sbcglobal.net if I am your lucky winner!
It doesn't get much better than this:
2 teaspoons acai powder
2-3 frozen almond milk cubes
1/2 a ripe banana
1/4 cup berries
1 handful spinach
1 heaping spoonful of almond butter
Then eyeball some almond milk to aid in blending (~1 cup or less). Depending on how much almond milk you add, can be very thick or thin consistency!
Great to use as a blended bowl as well, if too thick! Add a bit more almond butter and top with remaining banana and granola! MMmmmm

Smoothie: Almond milk, one frozen banana, handful of strawberries (fresh or frozen – if frozen, use more almond milk to thin out), handful of frozen mango chunks, chia seeds, and spinach. Usually, I don't use a recipe, though – I love to just throw in whatever I have handy – mix of frozen and fresh to get a slushy texture, and try to balance sweet with bitter, plus add in protein when I can.
If I win, please email: kcvidaloca@gmail.com
Thank you so much!!
I'd love to win! My favorite smoothie "recipe" is easy! Frozen banana (instead of ice, really makes it creamy!), a splash of pineapple or OJ, a splash of skim milk or water, pineapple chunks and some coconut (or coconut flavoring). Its yummy! =)

My favorite smoothie is fashioned after my fav Traverse City Pie; Lakeshore Berry, Strawberries, Raspberries, Blackberries and Apples, and yogurt. I don't measure, just how much of each ingredient looks good to you. deniseg529@sbcglobal.net
My favorite smoothie has oh so much in it. Milk, spinach, 1/2 banana, 2 mandarin oranges, a pear, hand full of baby carrots, mixed frozen berries, sliced almonds, chia seeds, and ice. This makes one very full blender which is perfect for our whole family and delicious to boot!
Love many smoothie flavors!!! Thanks for the giveaway!
Janicep122@verizon.net
We have just started making smoothies, but right now, one of my favorites is from a book called Superfood Smoothies.
Cherry Vanilla (makes 2 – 16 oz smoothies)
2 cups frozen cherries, pitted
2 cups (packed) baby spinach
1 tablespoon almond butter
2 cups coconut water
1⁄2 teaspoon wheatgrass powder
2 tablespoons vanilla extract
Sweetener (such as agave or honey), to taste
DIRECTIONS
Blend together all the ingredients until smooth. Taste, and sweeten more if desired.
Although it has spinach, it is not green…really more of a deep berry colored.
The "superfood" ingredients are quite expensive, but since you use just a little in each recipe, I am thinking they will go a long way!
I would LOVE to win a Vitamix blender, to better blend all the little seeds and such!

I love a blend of banana, strawberries and milk or bananas, peanut butter and milk. That's all the smoothie knowledge i have! For this reason I need so much to win!!! 😀
We love smoothies using carrot juice,celery juice, apple or pear juice, spinach, pineapple, blueberries or strawberries, and either kale or beet juice with ice and flax seed oil. We love the freshness and have noticed our kids are more interested in eating better because they are involved in choosing what goes in the smoothies so they see things taste good.
I like 1 banana, chocolate carnation breakfast, yogurt, peanut butter, milk.
Im new to the healthier smoothies! Right now my favorite smoothie is spinach, banana, strawberries, vanilla greek yogurt, unsweetened almond milk and a tiny bit of agave. Email mollyriley25@yahoo.com

My favorite smoothie though is 1.5 cups spinach & kale mix, 1 apple, 3/4 cup berries, 1 Tbsp hemp seeds, 1/4 cucumber, 1.5 cups of water, 8-10 drops grapefruit seed extract. It's super healthy and you can really taste the fruit!
1/2 cup of Chobani Vanilla Yogurt
Handful of Strawberries (stem and all!)
Handful of Frozen Pineapple
Handful of Spinach
1 banana
1 apple
1 clementine
Little pour of Orange Juice
Little pour of Milk
2 handfuls of ice
andrea.r.corner@gmail.com
1 can coconut milk
1 ripe avocado
Peppermint extract to taste
2 1/2 – 3 tsp of raw honey (if you taste avocado you need more avocado)
2 cups of ice (more or less for your desired thinkness)
Found this on the AAG page. It's so smooth and creamy! A way better version of the Shamrock shake! It makes enough for now and later, & it will keep in the fridge 🙂

My Favorite smoothie is not super healthy but it is easy and my mom used to make this for me when I was little because it was the only way I would drink milk. It is bananas, milk and sugar… that simple! You can contact me through e-mail

I am currently trying out Paleo, so not doing dairy, but I used to use cottage cheese or yogurt depending on what was in my fridge at the time. Now I use frozen berries and/or a bananna, pineapple juice or coconut water with pineapple juice mixed in, and a handful of spinach or kale. sometimes I throw in some coconut cream, again just depends what's in the fridge. Roasting the strawberries sounds awesome. I'll have to try that.

We eat a lot of smoothies but I don't really follow a recipe. I toss in frozen bananas, carrots, spinach, blueberries, a bit of concentrated orange juice, mango, and coconut water. Sometimes we add some peanut butter for protein. Oh, we always add a good hunk of greek yogurt. They aren't too sweet, but fill up my belly and make me feel good all day.
Almond milk, frz berries, frz banana and spinach.

Unfortunately I don't have a blender, the only smoothies I get are ones made by friends and I have no idea what they put in them. I'm saving up for a vitamix because the others just aren't as sturdy as a vitamix. However winning one would be awesome! And the money saved from buying one could go to fruits and veggies for my smoothies 🙂

My son is uber-picky, so even a smoothie can be a battle. It's too bad, because I love to combine a couple bananas, milk, some Greek yogurt and a package of blueberries for a smoothie. Then I count it as a serving of fruit for him – voila! And I cross my fingers that he will try it. 😉
Kale, berries, almond milk and blueberries my fave. Thanks for a chance to win.

My favorite smoothie uses the Simply Balanced Frozen Strawberries … they are so fresh tasting and the fact they are frozen adds bulk and "ice" to my smoothie.

One smoothie I've been doing for a while is a "tropical" fruit blend (frozen strawberries, peaches, pineapple, and mango) with plain non-fat Greek yogurt and milk of choice (skim milk, almond milk). No added sugars, a great addition to breakfast, and an extra protein boost in the morning for my kids so they're not starving before lunchtime. I can be reached at sachaschell80@gmail.com. Thanks for the offer!
Looks delicious! Good luck all!
Oh my god, roasted strawberries! That sounds freaking amazing. Way to take a basic smoothie to the next level.
My favorite smoothie recipe is one I posted on my blog that includes dates, almond butter, almond milk, bananas and raspberries. The whole thing tastes like peanut butter and jelly without all of that bread in the way 🙂 Recipe here: http://www.almondbutterbinge.com/pbj-power-smoo…e-paleo-option/
I can be reached at kmwutz[at]gmail[dot]com.
I've started using unsweetened coconut milk in all my smoothies, along with whatever berries I have on hand: fresh or frozen, chia and flax seeds. Super healthy.

I NEEEEEDDDDD this Vitamix. I asked for a Vitamix for Christmas and my hubby bought me a cheaper knock-off because he refused to spend that much for a blender. Now my kids refuse to drink my smoothies because they have small chunks in them. Sigh… Anyway, I made a great smoothie yesterday that was yummy. Frozen pineapple, frozen banana, strawberries, plain non-fat greek yogurt and honey. Yummy (even though the kids refused it… LOL)! My email is amy4fish@yahoo.com

Roasting Strawberries sounds delicious!
mike.vaughn@gmail.com
My favorite smoothie is the Skinny Green Monster (of which i modify by adding chia seeds). This was the first 'green' smoothie that I was brave enough to taste. So much so, I fell in LOVE and now I add spinach and/or kale to almost all of my smoothies.
I'm looking forward to trying this roasted strawberry smoothie. Since I'm generally highly allergic to strawberries, I think this will be a good attempt for me to try 'cooked' strawberries in my smoothies.

Hi Gina!
My favorite smoothie recipe is really simple and I make different variations all of the time just by switching out the fruit. I'm not one to really measure either and just eyeball most of the ingredients. I usually throw in a handfull of frozen strawberries, a handful of frozen blackberries, a banana, a teaspoon of chia seeds a teaspoon of wheat germ and a cup of coconut water and about a 1/4 cup of red beets (you cant even taste them!). Usually this makes two servings, one for me and one for hubby. Its filling and very refreshing.
Thank you for all of your fantastic recipies too!

Love the cottage cheese idea–trying it! My favorite smoothie is a couple handfuls of spinach and/or kale, 10 or so strawberries, a banana, and some water. Gets you at least 4 servings of fruits and good greens all in one shot!
oops! My email is saraconstantakis@gmail.com
Hmmm. This sounds interesting (I love fresh strawberries, but leery of roasting them–may have to try.) I'm a cheater. My favorite smoothie is made with Weight Watcher's smoothie powder and then I use frozen strawberries and either almond milk or skim milk as the liquid. If I use chocolate powder it tastes like a chocolate covered strawberry, one of my most favorite things in the world.

Well, this is darn exciting! My favorite smoothie is probably the classic, boring kind: strawberry banana with Greek vanilla yogurt. I've tried making them in a blender with some success, but a Vitamix would definitely make me a happy lady!
Thanks!
writing.meg [at] gmail.com
Cottage cheese sounds awesome. I have trouble with the yogurt tang as well. I really love milkshakes so thick you can almost stand a spoon up in it, so I make my smoothies with frozen fruit and just enough liquid to get it blended. My favorite being local PYO strawberries that I have frozen to enjoy through the year.
I would love to make smoothies, but I have broken 2 blenders. User error I'm sure. I could really use a Vitamix
Peaches! I love fresh peaches, and peach smoothies are the best – I like to have more fruit than anything else in my smoothies, so I often chop up 2 peaches, then add some greek yogurt and often a splash of either coconut or almond milk, depending on what's around. I don't mind adding spinach to this if I feel I want more vegetables in my diet. But with fresh, ripe peaches, you don't need a lot else.
One of my favorite smoothies are almond milk, spinach, Casein protein powder,Chia seeds, frozen blackberries, frozen cantalope,cinnamon, and Honey.

I keep my smoothies simple. Strawberries, banana, and blueberries or raspberry (whatever is on hand) with a 6oz container of strawberry yogurt.

I love mangoes and/or in my smoothies! And always lots of berries
i keep it pretty simple with my smoothies, but i've always wanted a great blender like a Vitamix so that i could play with more interesting combinations!
generally, i will freeze all of the fruit i use for smoothies, which eliminates the need for ice. sometimes i will add milk or yogurt, but generally i will start out with bananas (creates a good, creamy base when frozen then blended) and add strawberries, blueberries, peaches, etc (whatever ive got on hand) until it tastes yummy!
oh, and i can be contacted at sam2979 [at] gmail [dot] com if i won. 🙂
