Smooth Mango Peach Frozen Strawberry Smoothie The last one of The Smoothie Series

The final recipe in the smoothie series!
Thank you, to all of you that have really enjoyed the series.
I love to create in recipes, so don't think I won't be working hard on new ones:)
If you have a idea or suggestion, email me or write me on Facebook.
The final recipe is a delicious smoothie, it combines mango, peaches with
frozen strawberry's, you get a smooth and creamy texture, and the frozen
berry's give you a nice cool down when it is hot outside:)
Peaches are a great treat, there is something special when you eat a
juicy, sweet peach, it gives my a big smile:)
They have a nice amount of liquid, so you don't have to add a extra liquid!
I like adding mango to smoothies it just gives it a thickness, without
adding cream!
Even a whole mango and a few Tablespoons of yogurt blended together
is really a great treat!
Start experimenting with mango and you will find a new Love:)

Smooth Avocado Tangy Kiwi Smoothie

Smoothie series continues:) Kiwi's are a fun fruit!
People are always puzzled, what to do with them?
I have once seen someone eat the whole kiwi like an apple, even the fuzzy skin!
I like to add them when I need something a little tangy in a dish!
They make a perfect addition to a smoothie!
I like the tiny seeds in the kiwi, the way they pop when you eat them.
This smoothie has a smooth rich texture because of the avocado, and when you add the
kiwi it gives it a tang.
When you add fresh lemon juice it is a burst of sunshine!

Thick Juicy Pear and Sweet Strawberry Smoothie

From reading my blog you all know I love pears:)
So I wanted to use it in my smoothie.I began thinking, what can I add to it to make it a really delicious smoothie?
For me pears have a mild sweetness, I don't want to loss the flavor of pears.
I needed to add a fruit that was going to have a burst of sweetness.
My first thought strawberries, they have a great sweet flavor, so you don't have to add
a sweetener.
The combo is really amazing, you can really taste the separate flavors of pears
and strawberries. That was what I wanted, to taste the juicy pears:)
The smoothie has a thick consistency!
This one is my favorite;)


Thick Pear and Sweet Strawberry Smoothie
makes 3 cups


4 pears
4 Tablespoons of yogurt (vegan)
1/2 cup milk (I used almond milk)

Wash fruit, and cut pears, strawberries into chunks, blend all ingredients until
smooth!!

Sunny Mango Blueberry Smoothie

Mango's are like little sunshine's, the perfect smoothie ingredient! It gives the smoothie a great body:)
When I make smoothie's, I like to have a thicker consistency, so I look for
fruit or vegetables that will give me that. I don't like to add ice or protein
powder to get a thick consistency. When buying mango's, I look for healthy, and
unblemished, with a slight give. The secret is to let them ripen on the counter until very ripe!
What do I mean? I have found that leaving them to ripen, and getting very soft to the
touch, you get more flesh from the middle seed. When I let them "soften" I
don't get as much of the seed:( So watch them, and let them get very soft
without going bad!

Sunny Mango Blueberry Smoothie
makes 1 1/2 cups plus

1 mango
1/2 cup milk ( I used oat milk)
1/4 cup blueberries
2 T blueberry yogurt

Wash and peel the mango, cut into chunks, add everything to blender
and mix until very smooth.

Honeydew Melon Sweet Smoothie

Smoothie series: Honeydew melon is one of those fruits that I can't wait for to be in season:)
For me the honeydew has a completely different flavor then cantaloupe. The honeydew has a very sweet honey flavor, with a light green flesh and is perfect for a smoothie.
The melon has a large amount of water in it, with no need for a added sweetener.                                         It is very important not to store in the refrigerator.
Leaving it on the counter ensures that it ripens to perfection!
When buying a melon smell it! Check for cracks or bruising.
When the melon looks good and smells good, you found the right one!
If you buy one that does not smell sweet, let it sit on the counter for a few days!
Try a honeydew if you have never tried it before.:)



Honeydew Melon Sweet Smoothie
Mine made 2 cups plus depends on the size of melon

1 melon
1 1/4 cups milk ( I used almond milk)
3 Tablespoons yogurt (vegan)
1 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Wash melon well, and cut melon open and scoop out flesh.
Add all the ingredients, and mix in blender or stick blender until
well combined.

Mango Blueberry Milky Smoothie Smoothie series

I am going to be doing a series of smoothie recipes. I like smoothies especially when I make them:)
For me I like to drink them before breakfast. When I feel really dehydrated I make a smoothie,
I feel like a sponge getting all hydrated. You can make them in what ever fruit you like,
also you can make "savory" smoothies if you don't like very sweet one. In the series I will
be giving you many recipes:) The first one is Mango Blueberry, this one is very special, you would
never think of this combination but it really really works. The mango is the high note but the
blueberry almost turns into a cream with blueberry flavor. It just works and you can't stop drinking
it:) When making smoothies you don't have to have a fancy blender, a stick blender works like
a charm. Happy smoothie making:)


Mango Blueberry Milky Smoothie
makes 11/2 cups ( depends on the size of the fruit)

1 mango
1/2 cup milk (I used almond milk)
1/4 cup blueberries
2 good Tablespoons of blueberry yogurt ( I used soy based yogurt)


Wash all fruit, peel mango and blend until creamy.
Serve immediately!!!
