Yummy!!!!

My win is that the smoothie challenge makes me feel like I am doing something for me and my health! My favorite recipe was the Chocolate Protein Shake. I am a chocolate lover so naturally it would be my favorite! It was rich and creamy with the added ice. I like the protein boost because sometimes on the days when I don’t eat meat I struggle with getting all my protein in. This smoothie would help with that. Love these challenges!

Variety is the spice of life!

Another successful smoothie challenge on the books. There was a nice variety in this challenge, including green smoothies, fruit smoothies, bowls and popsicles. It gave me a chance to try smoothies prepared in different ways and using some lovely seasonal fruits. Unfortunately, my popsicle molds did not get delivered on time, so i didn’t get a chance to try them. My favorite smoothie from the current smoothie challenge by far is the Chocolate Protein Shake. It was chocolatey delicious!

Fun Yum Challenge!

I am not a great fan of avocados but the first challenge surprised me because that smoothie was one of my favorites. So, I’ve moved avocados into my ‘OK’ list of smoothie additions. It was a toss-up between the Cinnamon and the Chocolate smoothies. I use these ingredients in many of my regular smoothie rotation.

Thank you for very much for the opportunity to sample all these delicious smoothies. I appreciate all y’all’s hard work!!!!! I learned sooo much! Thank you!!! Thank you!!!! Thank you!!!! Oh so many wins! pick one???? Lots of healthy, nutritious ingredients consumed and confidence to experiment with my smoothies. Also learning what to substitute if food preferences/allergies or even if preferred ingredients are not available in the future… Favorite recipe? Definitely was the Summer Watermelon smoothie!!!! The whole family loved it!!!! It was sooo very refreshing! No water or liquid to dilute it … all fruit! Hydrating and nutritious too! And the lime was the perfect kick to it!!!! We are making this over and over this summer! In fact bought 2 more watermelons on sale this week!!! Thank you so very much for this challenge!!!!

Family Fun!

My kids and I loved trying each different recipe every day. We are split on our favorites. Mine was the Watermelon smoothie I loved the addition of the cherry and lime. My son like the blueberry the best – he is a huge blueberry fan. My daughter liked the tropical smoothie bowl the best – she was at first concerned about the orange color but turned out to love the orange flavor (she had thought it was from carrot).

Getting back in the Smoothie game

My win is getting back in the smoothie game. I love smoothies because its a great way to get fruits and some veggies and they taste great. I haven’t made smoothies in awhile and my son has been asking me to make some. This challenge was a great kick start to make smoothies for us again. Its the only way I can get any spinach in him. My favorite recipe was the Pineapple Mint smoothie because I have never thought about putting mint in a smoothie and I loved it. The taste had a nice little kick of mint that made the taste that much greater.

Mangoes, limes & watermelons… oh my!

Love how the challenged introduced new ‘smoothie ingredients’ to my repertoire (i.e. limes 😋) My fav was the watermelon/cherry/lime smoothie! It was sooo refreshing.. especially after a morning run in hot & humid Houston, TX. …Lol…. 🥵😂

Yummy To My Tummy Chocolate Shake

My win from the challenge was trying a smoothie. I bought a protein powder for the first time in my life. My favorite was the Chocolate Protein Shake. I used cauliflower instead of bananas and maple syrup over dates to keep the sugar low. Surprisingly I did not taste it. This was a cool challenge.

Summer Adventure

The last 10 days have been an adventure. I love smoothies but usually stick with basic ingredients. This challenge made me step outside my comfort zone and try some new ingredients. My favorite recipe was the Orange Julius. It was so refreshing and flavorful!

Beyond Expectations!

The biggest win was broadening my smoothie repertoire with so many new delicious recipes! My favorite smoothie was the Orange Julius Smoothie without the banana and with vanilla because it tasted just like I remember the mall Orange Julius!
