Then I put in another cup or two of liquid and the frozen fruit and voila!jenerekfamilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13218918332528833809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954168366969639799.post-50935899042128300612012-08-03T23:51:00.433-07:002012-08-03T23:51:00.433-07:00i like green smoothies too, especially because i d...i like green smoothies too, especially because i don't like to eat vegetables, haha. ;) thanks for these tips! :D<br /><br />p.s. we put kale, pears, green apples, and lime in ours. :)<br /><br /><3, Mimi<br />http://whatmimiwrites.blogspot.com/<br /><a href="http://whatmimiwrites.blogspot.com/2012/07/review-and-giveaway-twisted-orchid.html" rel="nofollow">Twisted Orchid Giveaway -- Win any bag of your choice!</a> :)Mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00016998487501779622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954168366969639799.post-573678554301063242012-08-03T18:55:27.156-07:002012-08-03T18:55:27.156-07:00I love me a green smoothie!

And oh, yes the vitamix is dearly sought after by me too...the holidays? Anyway, I love a quarter avocado in my smoothie! Also oatmeal is great, but again, blend, blend, blend! <br />Cheers!Ladies Holidayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05861380625452005012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954168366969639799.post-48322474457110059282012-08-02T17:38:19.901-07:002012-08-02T17:38:19.901-07:00Oh I would LOVE a VitaMix as well!

My Cuisinart leaves little bits of spinach, but I use frozen berries instead of banana because I'm not a huge banana fan, so I have a huge purple monster smoothie instead of a green one. And my kids LOVE it. We do use peanut butter, milk, and yogurt, but it's kind of a funky taste (not sure if it's the peanut butter (literally just crushed nuts) or the milk products). <br />Using banana is there a banana flavor to it? I'd love to make it green and have considered using peaches instead of banana, but I think I could get the kids to drink a green smoothie with banana; it's just not my fav fruit.Gretchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15604591041384076560noreply@blogger.com
