10-Day Smoothie Reset

I entered the smoothie challenge simply because I wanted to try new smoothies. The challenge used ingredients I would have NEVER thought to put into my smoothies. Ginger turmeric and cauliflower are now my favorite add ins. This challenge is life changing. I’m so excited for the next challenge.

Doing this challenge has made me crave smoothies – quite a feat for this chocolate/coffee/anything with sugar craving girl. And the smoothie challenge book made it so much easier!

I always love Jen’s challenges! Having the shopping list and recipes makes it so easy to have a healthy smoothie every day. I love the variety of smoothies. I always need to get more fruits/veggies in my diet and having a smoothie is a great way to do it. I always have good intentions in joining the challenges, but usually have maybe one or two smoothies. This challenge I only missed three days. I think next time I will pre-make my smoothies by placing all ingredients in a bag and freezing. That way I can just pull out the bag and blend. My favorite smoothies are the Strawberry Banana (tasted like a strawberry milkshake) and you couldn’t taste the cauliflower. The first time I’ve had cauliflower in my smoothie. The other one is the Perfect Lemon Smoothie. This smoothie is so refreshing with a nice lemon taste. I didn’t have peaches so I subbed mango. It was like a nice day of sunshine!

I LOVE these smoothie challenges— just wish they longer. I’ve gotta order the smoothie book! I bought a Vitamix last May in attempts to drink more whole foods, and I end up falling a bit off the wagon until one of these challenges rolls around and it always fires me back up with new smoothie ideas/combinations that I never would have thought to try otherwise. The fb group is a lot of fun because everyone is helpful and upbeat which isn’t common on most groups these days. I felt SO MUCH BETTER physically and mentally just a few days into this challenge. It’s easy to get burned out making the same smoothies over and over so I’m thankful for the new ideas.

I have always been interested in smoothies. I stopped short due to what I believed to be a complicated and expensive way to making them. Then, Jen and Simple Green Smoothies came to life! Loved that the recipes and shopping lists were made available to succeed in this healthy lifestyle. I was impressed with the quality and taste of all the recipes. I will definitely continue to incorporate this way of getting my nutrition levels up!

I really enjoyed my smoothie challenge TBH. Everyday i was able to wake up and discover a brand new smoothie recipe…. which i knew was going to do my body a world of good (but also my soul). i did my shopping and prepped the smoothies and froze them. Once this part was done, it was quite convenient to wake up , go to my freezer and pop the bag of ingredients into my blender and BAM…gulp gulp gulp. I was actually quite surprised with some of the recipes and flavours from the smoothie challenge. Infact, the recipes i thought were kind of odd, i actually enjoyed the most like the “Honey Tumeric” smoothie. I was a little scared of this one, but i really enjoyed it.. you just have to try to undertsand what i mean! I do feel like my body has been boosted by goodness. I feel more alert, less inflammation (as i suffer from arthritis) and just overall alot more healthier. I would recommend anyone to try this challenge. You feel like you are really doing something good for you body and i am all for that! X

I really enjoyed this challenge. Being part of the Smoothie Challenge Support group really helped me stay on track seeing everyone else’s pictures and feedback on their challenge journey. I definitely have noticed that my “sweet tooth” has reduced and now regular sugar is too sweet. I am working on reducing my sugar intake and resetting my taste buds was definitely a goal of mine. I feel like I was successful doing this smoothie challenge.

I was looking forward to this challenge. To be able to try new smoothie recipes and different ingredient combinations. I really enjoyed all the recipes, and it was easy to make small substitutions due to my allergies. I would love to do another challenge!

I will now have forever simple green smoothies. They taste amazing and they are so simple and easy to prepare. I finally finished something(challenge) which is hard for me to do 😒 but I did it, I’m so proud of myself now, I will continue to make these smoothies, they are a part of me now ♥️

It such a simple and easy way to get goodness in your baby. The shopping list and recipes was all easy to read and follow. Thanks Jen for such a simple program.

What a fun way to try get and try some new recipes – some great blends that I probably would not have tried without the challenge. Found some new favorites.

When I tell you this smoothie challenge gave me back my MOJO!!! I’m naturally a high energy person, but lately my energy levels have been a little low. I can most certainly state this was from fuelling my body with the incorrect nutrients. However, since I made the commitment to join this challenge, I have been bouncing off the walls with energy; literally! I’m actually about to download the app to do the 30-day challenge; I’m so pumped! If you’re reading this; stop and start blending yourself one of these magic smoothies! Thanks, Jen, for helping get my MOJO BACKKKKKKKK!

This challenge is really not that challenging. The Simple Green Smoothie team makes it so easy. I feel confident that I will be keeping on with the “ challenge” because I feel so much better starting each and every day with a (usually) green smoothie. I am working to mobilize the food pantry fairies at my school to start bringing us frozen fruits and veggies so that my students can start off their day with Smoothies and experience better brain food. They love everything I have shared with them so far! Come to find out, students love to toast the day and share in a “power shot” with me. Thank you for getting me on board with this! I can’t wait to see what the future brings 🙂

This challenge was educational and delicious! While a few of the smoothies were similar to ones I have made before, the majority had either new ingredients (cauliflower, whole peeled lemons) or a creative combination of my usual ingredients. I enjoyed every smoothie, even with added spinach or other greens. My new favorite is the Perfect Lemon, no matter if I make it as written, or substitute mangoes, kiwi, and/or orange slices for the peaches. I am now in the habit of making smoothies every day and I love knowing that I am eating so many fruits and veggies. Thank you!

This challenge was EVERYTHING! When I first signed up I wasn’t sure what I was getting into. I assumed that the smoothies weren’t going to taste great….. I was so incredibly WRONG! Each and every shake was delicious, and packed with so many fruits and vegetables I would have never thought to add to a smoothie. I began sharing the shakes with my mom and she even began to make her own smoothies. This challenge was definitely what we needed to start the year off right. We are RAWKin it and aren’t turning back. I am truly grateful for this challenge and the new community!
