Blueberry Banana Smoothie
This blueberry banana smoothie is creamy, delicious, and chock-full of nutrient-dense ingredients and filling protein. Plus it takes just five minutes to make with ingredients that are easily kept on hand. Five minutes are all you need to whip up this thick, creamy, fruity smoothie, which also happens to be the most glorious shade…
Replenish Smoothie
This make-at-home rendition of a local cafe’s customer-favorite smoothie offers natural sweetness, filling fiber, and plant-based protein with just five simple ingredients! This is my at-home rendition of a smoothie my husband and I have ordered many a Saturday morning from the café at a wonderful local market called Lemon Street. The names of…
Matcha Smoothie
A deliciously filling meal replacement that’s loaded with superfoods and quality protein－plus it’s perfectly sweet but the sugars are kept in check. You don’t need to like matcha to love this smoothie! 💚 You may THINK you’re not a matcha fan, or perhaps you’ve never tried it. (But stay with me!) This vibrantly green smoothie…
5-Ingredient Very Berry Smoothie (and make-ahead smoothie packs)
Loaded with filling protein, healthy fats, and a hearty dose of fruit (and optional veggie), this 5-ingredient very berry smoothie checks all the metaphorical boxes—and tastes great, too. For grab-and-go convenience, smoothie packs can be quickly assembled and stored in the freezer. For years, my childhood friend Christine and I would occasionally grab a…
Immunity Boosting Smoothie
Looking for some immunity boosting magic? If you’ve skimmed a newspaper or tuned into the morning news (anyone else a Hoda fan?) even once or twice over the past few weeks, you likely know this is the worst flu season in years. As if that’s not enough, there’s a severe upper respiratory infection and a…
Piña Colada Smoothie Bowl
As a boy, my Dad was required to take a spoonful of cod liver oil every morning before breakfast. It was one of those oft-repeated stories we heard if we voiced displeasure with what was on our plate. I still have this mental picture of my maternal grandmother hovering over my dad as a young…
Pink Pineapple Protein Smoothie
Anyone else feeling the need for a post-holiday reboot? Party food and cookies notwithstanding, the bigger assault to my system just so happened to come by way of a nasty virus that hit me just days before Christmas. Instead of attending a long-planned dinner out with my cousins, a fancy holiday party, and my…
Creamy Chocolate Power Shake
Thick enough to eat with a spoon and loaded with a wholesome balance of ingredients that will deliciously fuel your day. I LOVE this shake–although you can call it a smoothie if you prefer. Initially, I was not a believer. My friend Anita gets all the credit for showing me the wisdom of adding…
Peanut Butter Cup Protein Shake
A high-protein meal replacement that pulls double duty as dessert? Sign me up! This thick, creamy shake has actually served me quite well over the years. Because of my penchant for a nightly bowl of ice cream–truly one of the hardest habits for me to break–I’m always on the hunt for healthier options that truly…
5-Ingredient Tropical Green Smoothie
I was skeptical. I purchase fresh spinach in a 5-ounce box, and the thought of putting all of it into a single smoothie recipe seemed…well…excessive. But in the name of helping a friend, I gamely tried this recipe. Ally Phillips, cookbook author, blogger, and longtime friend in food, was looking for a little assistance as…
Pineapple Kiwi Vanilla Yogurt Smoothie
Green smoothies have a way of making people run the other way. For some, the color is a turnoff. For others, the mere idea of putting spinach or kale into a fruity drink just doesn’t appeal. So when Stonyfield asked me recently to create a green smoothie including yogurt, I used a kiwi as my…
Green Monster Smoothie
I have been off my smoothie kick for months. Maybe it was all the excesses of the holiday season, but I actually craved a green smoothie yesterday. Seriously. And this from a girl who used to cringe at the thought of blending her greens! So, in the spirit of getting back on track, perhaps at…
