Smoothie Challenge

The smoothies were delicious, and I felt lighter while enjoying them throughout the challenge. I plan to keep these in my weekly routine, along with any new ones you share.

Thank you so much for helping me incorporate small, easy changes into my life—they’ve made a real difference.

Thanks so much for doing this smoothies challenge. I especially enjoyed the peanut butter and Cacao powder one, but they all were great. I had gotten a little burnt out on my “old standbys” and enjoyed new, refreshing ones.

As a PA, I try to have healthy eating habits to set an example for patients. The Challenge and daily emails helped keep me on track!

The flavours of all the different smoothies has been awesome, to the point where I actually enjoyed the experience. Not usually one for drinking smoothies – but thought I would give it a go and it was definitely worth my time

I enjoyed this last smoothie and did make some changes in the previous smoothies too. I am pre diabetic and have high cholesterol so I’m trying to avoid the super sugary fruits like bananas and in this last smoothie recipe you said to swap it with frozen cauliflower, what a great idea!!!! You are right, the taste of it is pretty inexistent.. loved this idea!!!

I do smoothies daily and using ginger and turmeric in every single smoothie (love ginger) unfortunately at times the taste of ginger is prevalent to everything I use.

I loved this challenge because I learned how to mix, swap ingredients as my liking and healthier to my needs.

I read someone said it would be nice to have the challenge for be 2 weeks and I completely agree!!

Thank you for helping me make my smoothies healthier and interesting.

Joined to jumpstart better eating habits this year. I’m obsessed!!! These smoothies are just the thing to get me going everyday.

I liked the opportunity to try so many new smoothies recipes. I really liked 6 out of 7 recipes. It give me confidence and ideas to help make new recipes and combinations of ingredients to make delicious smoothies apart of my diet regularly. Thank you !

I joined the challenge to renew my confidence in making smoothies. I was a green smoothie junkie about 13 years ago. We were an army family and I was on a weight loss and health renewal journey. Since my husband retired from the army, we’ve moved a few times, adjusted to civilian life and raised our kids. AND gotten older lol! I needed a kickstart to revitalize my health and ease my creaky joints. I enjoyed the recipes during the challenge. The PDF was very helpful, so thank you! I did add pea protein, chia seeds and sometimes oats to my smoothies depending on my needs for the day. I slept better and deeper overall, and felt refreshed when I woke up the next day. I didn’t lose any weight but I did have a lot less bloating. I plan to repeat the challenge this week and add an additional green smoothie each day. Thank you and your team for putting this even together. It has been a great experience!

Always looking for ways to improve my daily smoothies.

Love having a smoothie every day. The recipes were great, easy and delicious.

Love the challenge

I joined to try the smoothie recipes that give me alternatives for healthier eating. I enjoyed making all the recipes and only the honey turmeric smoothie was not for me, although with some tweaks it could be. I will work on the tweaks. I lost 4 pounds over the week so hoping I keep it off by rotating smoothies into my regular daily eating. I’m glad you added the PDF for the grocery list. I didn’t try any of the challenge deals (not that I didn’t like them, just didn’t get to take advantage of them), but with having the flu this week I don’t recall them, but you probably mentioned them at the pre-challenge workshop. I didn’t read many emails this week, so I may have missed that info if it was in an email. My inbox was inundated with emails every time someone posted a comment so I will have to figure out how to turn that off for future challenges as I miss finding other emails in the long list of smoothie challenge comments, which I just log in and read the comments on the website anyway. I really enjoyed the week, loved all the pics everyone posted. Maybe I will win a Vitamix one day that also has the option for the food processor bowl. I would love to get rid of my old food processor! I’m hoping you will do a soup challenge, which would be a great winter challenge as I eat more soup in the winter as a warm up. Thanks for a great week!

I joined to get out of my comfort zone. I typically make the same two smoothie variations. I also just love a good challenge. I enjoyed the exposure to the various recipes some combinations that I would never have thought of myself. I didn’t really notice any significant changes as I’m already plant based. I like the format of the challenge and overall it’s very organized.

I loved trying different smoothie recipes. The lemon one was my favorite & I never would have come up with the ingredients myself. I typically just throw in what I have but it’s much better to have a recipe to start with. Thank you.

I joined because I always wanted to start making smoothies but did not know where to start. I liked 6 out of the 7 recipes. I feel really good with blending fruits and veggie and being able to tweek what I did not like. My sugar cravings decreased and I feel good. I’m proud of myself because I tried something new and it was good and I feel good. I learned turmeric has a strong taste and I will have to continue to push that spice in my smoothies. Thank you- this challenge was fun and I really enjoyed watching everyone’s post and I enjoyed posting my pics!

I’ve always been intimidated by smoothies. I learned that they can be easy and delicious! It also gave my son and me something fun to bond over!

Any challenge by Rawk the Year/Simple Green Smoothies will set you up for success. Each day you experience a different flavor profile putting together ingredients you might not have on your own. Not only did they taste good they were full of healthy ingredients your body needs. I will continue to participate in future challenges.

I love everything about this challenge. The recipes are easy to make & the printable pdf is beautiful. The challenge is a delicious way to increase plant foods into my diet. Thanks Jen. You rawk!

I joined the challenge as a way to get myself out of my comfort zone and try new recipes and ingredients. I did my smoothies as a breakfast meal. Yes I like the recipes. I noticed less craving for sugar and processed foods. I feel great! I am proud of myself as I remained consistent on doing my smoothies every day of the challenge. I would change some of the ingredients such alternating fruits or milk of my choice.

I joined because I needed a jump start, and was in a rut. I lost 3 lbs. and confirmed that I need to inject more protein in my diet early in the day. I added powdered protein to each smoothie and it was great. I would have preferred to have your powdered protein recipe earlier in the challenge; 1 week before so I could prepare.
