10-Day Smoothie Reset

Wow! This green smoothie challenge was very different from the previous ones I’ve done in the past. I’ve always made my smoothies with greens. Not all of these recipes had greens! While most of them were on the sweet side we did have savory make an appearance. For these smoothies I was blending ingredients I never would have thought to put into the blender (I’m looking at you cauliflower!). But also I made wonderful smoothies with carrots ginger lemon and tumeric. And cinnamon was such a game changer! I definitely learned variety is the spice of life! I am terrible at picking favorites. With the exception of one most of the smoothies were superb. Before I reveal the winning smoothie of the challenge I must give an honorable mention to the Tumeric Honey Smoothie. It was quite out-of-the-box. At first I didn’t know what to make of it due to it’s bold flavor profile. It did have some texture but from the beginning to end of each sip my mouth was on an adventure experiencing a myriad of flavors. And today I find myself craving it. In my humble opinion my favorite smoothie of the challege was definitely the Creamy Banana Smoothie. What can I say I love sweet! It was so delightfully creamy thick and cold. I couldn’t believe how filling it was! It was a well-balanced smoothie. I did not find the bananas overpowering at all. But then again I kind of love bananas. It was such a deliciously healthy treat! I would make it again and again!

I made all ten smoothies and my favorite was creamy blueberry. The smoothie challenge book provides a great variety of smoothies salads and soups with simple instructions and healthy ingredients. Jen’s smoothie prep idea is a game changer. What a delicious way to get daily healthy nutrients into my body. I’m addicted and can’t wait to make all the recipes.

I have to be honest. This challenge was rather easy for me because I already drink green smoothies/smoothie bowls daily. However, I have been in a rut, making the same few recipes every day. I loved the variety of combinations this challenge had to offer. It helped me switch up my flavors, and I discovered some delightful ones. Thanks for so many yummy smoothies!

I loved the challenge and can’t wait to start doing daily smoothies . For me, I committed to the challenge and using the ingredients that were in each recipe so I would try something new. This gave me a wider range of good foods to fuel my body. I enjoyed all the recipes, maybe a couple would have a few tweaks but I’d make them all again. Probably the biggest thing I learned.. I’ve had so much more energy! You wouldn’t think you’d notice the difference so early on but it really does happen. Thanks Jen and Team for a wonderful challenge- and I’ll continue every day!

I loved this challenge because it challenged me in using veggies and spices that I do not normally use. I enjoyed the smoothies some more than others but overall love the outcome. I feel less sluggish and even feel lighter! I even purchased the 30 day challenge and order the cookbook so I will be definitely continuing in drinking smoothies on a daily!

Loved the challenge. Looked forward to each new recipe and was not disappointed once. All were delicious and left me with energy to meet my day without hesitation. I am in this game for good now. Purchased your app Daily Blends and am can’t wait to try all those recipes as well. Cheers to “Smoothie Operators”!

It was fun to take part in the smoothie challenge and try some ingredients I had never tried before and try some new smoothies. I enjoyed the challenge since all the recipes were ready for me. I appreciated the “get ready” video before we started and I appreciated the tips for making the challenge easy to do. I’m glad to have the information on ingredient swaps and a little background on the benefits of each smoothie. The challenge was just the right length to make it fun. Thanks for allowing me to take this journey with all.

My husband & I did this together so naturally we had different “reviews” sometimes, but we both loved the Beginners Luck’s fruity taste; the Perfect Lemon, which the name says it all -“PERFECT”; PB Chocolate was like a milkshake, YUM; and the Creamy Banana’s sweet vanilla flavor was amazing! There weren’t any that we didn’t enjoy, and some I would just change up a few of the ingredients a little. Having a shopping list made it so much easier and the idea of being offered a challenge made me stick to it each morning. It also made me buy and try different ingredients like non-dairy yogurt, and cashew milk which I didn’t even know existed! There wasn’t any cashew yogurt in my store, but I’ll keep searching for it. I love the concept of eating more plant-based and whole foods and try my best to do so, but it’s a big challenge to stick with it. The increase in the extra “get up and go” that we have is so worth it. Thanks so much for the motivation, it helps immensely!!

Overall, I loved it! I completed another smoothie challenge last year, and I enjoyed all the smoothies I got to try, so I was excited to try another. I liked that there were similar ones to the last challenge, but I also enjoyed experimenting with new flavors. Some had flavor combinations I would not have tried before, so it was interesting! I liked that some were fruity while others were more of a dessert type smoothie. It was a good mix, and it was a nice part of my routine in the mornings to try a new smoothie. I’m excited to make some of them again as part of a regular breakfast! Looking forward to the next challenge!

This smoothie challenge was a great way to incorporate more fruits, vegetables and healthy ingredients into my diet. My favorite smoothie was the chocolate peanut butter smoothie because I love peanut butter!! However there wasn’t a smoothie from the ten days that I didn’t enjoy; they were all delicious. Enjoying a smoothie daily has made me feel like I have more energy throughout the day.

What a nice challenge to be apart of, and to help kick start a new healthy routine! I loved how we were given differed smoothie recipes to help keep things exciting, and to introduce me to new flavor combos & ingredients to incorporate incorporate into my daily smoothies. Can’t wait for the next challenge!

This challenge is easy, fun and nutritious. The team spirit is always inspiring and keeps me accountable. Starting the day with a smoothie sets the tone for the day. I feel more equipped to eat healthier throughout the day. My favorite smoothie was the Lemon Peach Smoothie. It is a zesty palate cleanser, and very different from other smoothies that I have been making. I’d say it would also be perfect as an afternoon pick me up or after a heavy meal and not just in the morning. Give it a try if you haven’t as yet!

This challenge went by way too fast! I am eating gluten free and have been struggling with breakfast ideas. Each of the smoothie recipes were gluten free and delicious. I now have go to ideas/recipes that will really make a difference in how I enjoy the most important meal of the day. What sticks out in my mind with the challenge is the ease and flexibility of the recipes. I keep a well stocked pantry and yet there were a couple of items I didn’t have. I substituted the ingredients I had on hand and each smoothie turned out beautifully. I also like the way the recipes were designed, I could tweak them to my own taste, I am an experiential and need to enjoy and engage in the process. This included buying the ingredients, making the smoothie, and finally consuming it. This was a fun process and each step kept me interested. I am looking forward to this spring and summer when I can harvest the greens I grow. The idea of knowing where my food comes from and how it is grown is important to me. I want to eat cleanly and using my home grown spinach in smoothies . Now I can do that with delicious smoothie recipes, thanks!

This was my third smoothie challenge. I’ve also done the soup challenge a couple of 7 day cleanses and I just joined Rawk the Year. This smoothie challenge was by far the best. I’m impressed with how the challenges and cleanses just keep getting better and better. This smoothie challenge added healthier ingredients with less sugar and more enticing flavor profiles. That’s the sign that the people in the company like what they do and care about their clients. It’s also the reason that I joined Rawk the Year. It’s really hard to choose my favorite smoothie this time. I really loved the Meal Replacement Smoothie with the flavor combination of oats almond butter and blueberries. It was really different and fun and pretty filling. I also loved the Epic Almond Smoothie which combined strawberries almonds and cinnamon for another great combined taste. And who wouldn’t love the Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie! Dessert through a straw. But my favorite by far was the Perfect Lemon Smoothie. It really was perfect in my opinion. So different and daring. The whole peeled lemon really gave it that strong lemon flavor the turmeric and ginger were a perfect addition and the peaches made it possible to drink it without puckering up the whole time. The past ten days showed me that I am capable of making a commitment to my health even while traveling a little being ill a little and being busy a lot. It also reminded me that smoothies don’t have to be just fruit and water. Thanks for another great challenge!

Great loved the smoothies for breakfast so easy and quick to prepare. Felt great and full all morning.
