Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Apple Juice
  • 1 cup Orange Juice
  • 1 Mango Peeled and chopped
  • 1 Apple Chopped
  • 1 Passionfruit
  • 1 Banana
  • 1 juice Lime
Optional
  • 1 cup Spinach Or other mild greens to make this into a green smoothie
  • 1 cup Oats Or other carbs to make this into a thickie/green thickie

Method
 

  1. Blend the ingredients in the following order: 
  2. Blend the dry ingredients and liquid first for a short time
  3. Blend the greens next. (If using)  for a short time
  4. Blend the fruit and the rest of the ingredients until smooth (or as smooth as your blender will allow. High speed blenders may need 2 minutes for a green thickie, less powerful blenders may need a lot more, sometimes 5-10 minutes)
  5. More tips
  6. This allows the dry ingredients to be blended for longest, it means the greens will fit in your blender and your fruit gets less blending so it doesn’t become too hot.
  7. Add more water if required to thin it out.
  8. Substitute any of the ingredients for whatever you already have.
  9. If your smoothie is too warm, you can cool it down in the fridge or freeze some of your ingredients before blending.  You can also replace half of the liquids with ice.  Add the ice at the end. It is better to add frozen ingredients at the end to cool the smoothie down.

Notes

How much should I drink to replace a meal?
  • Only use a meal replacement if you’ve added the oats/quinoa.
  • This green thickie serves 2 so you should DRINK HALF OF THIS RECIPE.  But if you have higher calorie requirements you may need to drink more.
