Smoothie Recipes

What is a smoothie? Smoothies are really a personal experience. For you, a smoothie is what you make it. Be creative. Use fresh ingredients and go with your own taste. The possibilities are limitless. Use the recipes below as a guide, and you're off and blending!

1. Add liquids first.

2. Add fruits and soft foods after liquids.

3. If adding ice or frozen fruit, add last (and if it's ice only, add sparingly).

4. Start blending on a LOW setting for about 30 seconds and then move to a HIGH setting until smooth.
