Note

Hello everyone!!!
I want to make a smoothie, but it's really scary to try a vegetable ... maybe someone is fond of it and will tell you an adequate recipe ???
Or is it not necessary to expect yummy from a vegetable smoothie?
If the topic is relevant, I suggest posting recipes for fruit and vegetable smoothies here.
For those who do not know what kind of animal it is, I post a clipping from the Internet:
The smoothie diet is by far the most fashionable diet in the West. Today, more and more often you can find a star with a glass of fruit or vegetable drink on the pages of glossy magazines or on television. In the West, hundreds of books about smoothie food are published, smoothie restaurants are opened, ready-made smoothies are sold. The usefulness of the smoothie is. that you do not need to gnaw apples or pears, choke on bananas or cucumbers. The mass whipped in a blender is rich in vegetable fiber, it is better digested and does not lose its properties, each vitamin remains in its place, which perfectly enhances
intestinal peristalsis.
In many US maternity hospitals, smoothies are included in the diet of expectant mothers. In private schools in the West, they are an indispensable component of baby food.
Smoothies are good for both weight loss and weight gain - the whole question is how and what to mix.

Surfers came up with a smoothie and were the first to use it, since this dish is rich in vitamins, it restores the body's energy balance well, does not cause heaviness in the stomach. Smoothies are great for your health - one glass of the fruit and vegetable blend can replace three days of vitamins.

FRUIT DRINKS. They contain vitamins, mineral salts, organic acids, pectin substances, essential oils and other biologically active compounds. From various fruit and berry juices and purees, you can prepare complex drinks of various colors, taste and aroma, enriching them with additives (cream, milk, ice cream, egg yolks, seasonings). Fruit and berry drinks not only add variety to the breakfast, lunch and dinner menu, but also enrich the diet with essential nutrients. Fruit drinks, like natural juices, are recommended to be consumed daily.

Found a recipe from Dana in "milkshakes":

Tasty and healthy:

2 apples (I have an Antonovka)
1 carrot
0.5 tablespoon sugar
Milk
1 tablespoon of cottage cheese with top

I cut one apple and leave 1/4 on the table. I cut off 4 circles from the carrot and put it aside for the apple. The rest is on the juicer. Peel a slice of apple from the core and skin, cut, cut the carrot slices in half and put everything in the juice. Add sugar, milk, and cottage cheese to a blender. I take milk by eye, about the same as the liquid in the glass before it. Yum Yum Yum!

Grind everything well with a blender.
You can add banana in large pieces to taste, then you get a smoothie, not fruit drink))
An excellent drink in the hot season and very healthy!

Today I went to "Shokoladnitsa", I saw Vitamin cocktails on the menu, my eyes fell on the "Solar Blast" - orange, banana, ice.
I decided to make it at home, so I have a banana and an orange at home, and even more ice)))
I really liked it, the banana was sweet and the orange with bitterness, the ice is cooling.

I make a strawberry-milk smoothie for children every day. Beat strawberries with sugar to your taste in a blender and add milk, also by eye. They don't want to eat berries like that, but they ask for it in the form of a cocktail. They really like it.

Girls, do you need to squeeze juice from all vegetables for a smoothie?
Mirabel
Natasha, Nooo, why squeeze juice? Immediately grind all the pulp in a blender and the resulting puree and it will be a smoothie.
