With a debit card.

Cup of OJ.
1 banana
Handful of frozen mixed fruit.

Milk
Protein powder
whatever fruit I have, preferably banana, plum, peach, berries etc.

The secret ingredients are flaxseed and crabmeat.

Wife has started making green smoothies, 75% greens and 25% frozen fruit with flaxseed and chia seeds and agua. She makes about 48 oz that we split. Sip it all morning for brekkie.

One orange , a scoop of plain yogurt, cup of ice, a shot of vanilla, and a squirt of honey

Oat milk, spinach, OJ, Blueberries, banana, sunflower seeds, protein powder, yogurt. Coffee if I've got any left in the cup.

The coffee shop my sister worked at made the best smoothies around. I stopped drinking them daily when I found out what they were made of. Ice cream base, strawberry ice cream topping and ice. Yes...a melted milkshake blended with ice. Every other attempt at smoothie making ends up a watery disappointment after you have one of these.

I just made one with the yogurt shown in my OP, a banana, and about 6 strawberries.

Nothing else - and certainly no ice.

It's very good!

Gosling's Black Seal Bermuda rum.

One banana, 4oz vanilla yogurt, 1 scoop protein powder, handful of frozen mixed berries - 30 seconds in the Magic Bullet and all is good.

Frozen mixed fruit (Berry mix) is my usual go-to. But they had a BOGO at Winn Dixie on all of these so....

OJ is a great suggestion!

Ha ha - I knew someone would say something about that crabmeat! Soon to be crab dip!

The flaxseed is indeed for the smoothies.

Yum!

Great suggestions!

:p

Spinach? Really, Herr Oberst?

Interesting - maybe that's the spinach Herr Oberst was talking about?

I can't bring myself to make a "green smoothy." My usual is very simple: frozen berry mix, milk, and stevia. I also blend my overnight oats into a smoothy: rolled oats, milk, maple syrup, chia seeds, peanut butter, frozen banana slices, & a few ice cubes.

Thanks, Marv.

I need to do a little more research and experimentation on the green smoothie thing, myself. I have no doubt you can make some that are not only healthy and nutritious, but also tasty.

Mostly along those lines for me it's been V8 juice with added celery in my blender. Along with seasonings and if the mood strikes a dash or three of vodka.

Back to your overnight oats.....I had never heard of that so did some digging and found this informative YT vid......gonna give it a try. Thank you!
