5 Reviews of Green Smoothie

From: Miss Dipsy

On Aug 22, 2006

This was really good; I had tried another green smoothie recipe before that was less fruity & didn't contain yoghurt, which was ok but not exactly something you'd drink purely for enjoyment! This, on the other hand, was very tasty & is something I would drink even if it wasn't so healthy! Unfortunately I only have a handblender so I couldn't get it completely smooth, which meant my son wasn't keen as he doesn't really like drinks with "bits" in, but me & my daughter loved it. I'm definately getting a proper blender soon so I can make more smoothies that we will all like. Have already made a few variations on the green smoothie theme as it seems such a good way to get fresh raw greens into our diets. The key to making them really tasty is to make sure you add enough sweeter stuff to balance out the greens. You can actually use any sort of greens, not just spinach, but I'd definately recommend using a good blender if you try anything tougher!

    Fantastic! I used orange juice and couldn't even taste the spinach. Was sweet enough with lowfat plain yogurt. This will definitely go into my favorite breakfasts file. What a wonderful healthy breakfast on the go! Thanks, Meredith, for sharing the recipe!

    Although my 3 year old wasn't too impressed, my 1 year old twins sucked this down without taking a breath - even the baby who spits out anything I have ever given him containing spinach!!!! Thanks for the great idea!
