Beyond rawlishous!

Another fantastic challenge when the smoothies continue to be exceptional and are tweaked! Every year I start and think “it’s only 10 days I can do it” but every year I continue it well after the challenge is completed! So for that thank you! If I could give 100 stars I would! My body thanks you!

Eye opening! Healthy food can taste like candy!

I am so grateful I found this challenge, I haven’t been able to complete any in the past EVER! I have struggled with keeping up and understanding all the needs to make it to the end of previous challenges. BUT THE SIMPLE SMOOTHIE has been the game changer. I am so excited as I was able to prep and I will say that the cashew milk and yogurt had me confused for a bit, but I figured it out and found that I love that stuff too! I did figure out that I am not a fan of turmeric powder and this didn’t cause me to stop. Total win for me and my family all the way around. I am excited to make these healthy smoothies a regular part of our diet and am now looking so forward to the next challenge! Thank you so much for loving people and making helping others love the journey to becoming healthy. Sincerely Lori Milazzo

Easy and delicious!

I really enjoyed this challenge. As someone who is always looking for new smoothie recipes, the ones in this challenge were easy to follow and the shopping list was affordable. I also appreciated how it was designed in a way that took into account the freshness of the food we purchase by breaking the grocery list into two. Would love to participate again in the future!

The Challenge wont stop after 10 Days!

I truly enjoyed this challange and it could not have been made any easier to complete. Having both the grocery lists and recipes well in advance allowed me ample time to prep and never feel like it was adding steps to my day. I would often a few days before prep some of the frui tin a baggie together, so it made it that much easier to dumb and blend – my own smoothie packs! Its a hard choice, but I think my favorite smoothie was the ‘perfect lemon smoothie’ as it was different and took me by surprise! This challenge not only helped me become better at planning and prepping, getting my fruits and vegetables in, but gave me a lot of energy before workouts and helped me maintain a 6x/week workout schedule. I look forward to continue using these recipes and other new ones through simple greens!

Smoothies for the win!

I never go for smoothies when I want something quick but I decided to do the challenge and see how it goes. After finishing the challenge, I’m incorporating many of the smoothies recipes in my weekly routine. I loved most of them!

Slam Dunk smoothie challenge

Loved every smoothie recipe! My favorite was the chocolate peanut butter because I just love Reece’s and it was like drinking a Reece’s cup. I’ll be making them all occasionally but the two that will be on a regular weekly rotation are Honey Turmeric and the Perfect Lemon. Those two just scream “healthy and drink me often!” Thanks for the challenge. Its been a great experience!

Smoothie Mornings

It was fun to try new recipes and have a healthy breakfast planned each day! These were a great motivator to try new combinations moving forward. 10 days of healthy morning starts was an accomplishment and kept me on track for my workouts and energized for the day!

Mean Greens

Recently I lost 67lbs. Being 59 years old, 60 in a few days, working out a lot, and dislike eating breakfast, I needed something o get my morning breakfast nutrients in. Smoothies seemed like a good alternative, so with some research I stumbled across Simple Green Smoothies and the smoothie challenge. I am in love with making smoothies with this challenge and is looking forward to doing others. Thank you.

From Ewww to Ooooh

There were some surprise ingredients I would never have tried of not for the challenge! Some of the smoothies were not for me but I was completely surprised by a few of the recipes. My new favorite is the Perfect Lemon Smoothie with turmeric! I also liked Beginners Luck and the Pre Workout smoothies!
