Cranberry Orange Smoothie (Raw Food)

I confess to having modified this slightly. First, I never add iceblocks because I always make my smoothies the night before for on-the-run (namely in the car on the way to work) breakfasts and secondly I have difficulty viewing water as a real ingredient. If I see water in a soup or other savoury recipe, I immediately see the opportunity to add some wine. Hardly appropriate here! So I added some low-fat vanilla yoghurt - which I only use in smoothies. The blend of the rest of the flavours: just wonderful. Love citrus flavours, loved the cranberries with the oranges, love vanilla, and the honey and walnuts were all wonderful. The yoghurt for water substitution just made my smoothie that little bit creamier. Thanks for sharing this recipe. Made for Gimme 5.

Neither the flavor of oranges nor the cranberries were jumping out at me, so I added a banana and it was DELISH! I love the walnuts!!!! I used agave instead of honey. Nice drink! Made for VEG*N SWAP.

This is good as written, but I added a banana to thicken it up a little and also to mellow out the vanilla a little. I suppose more ice could have done that too. Tastes good! Reviewed for the January Veg*n Swap.
