Date: January 30, 2007 02:03AM First I blended romaine lettuce, cucumbers, cacao nibs ---> result was pretty nasty and thick
Secondly I blended carrots, celery ----> result was still pretty gross Where can I get some smoothie recipes that taste decent and yet are also really good for an athletic guy like me? Thanks Re: First day on Vitamix

Date: January 30, 2007 07:16AM One that I like:
2-3 oranges, a handful of greens, and some berries or, how about pineapple, banana and spinach. These should taste better, and might inspire you in the right direction. You need to experiment with proportions. The more I do this, the more greens and less fruit I can add, but at first, I had to do mainly fruit or I just didn't like the taste. Would love to hear what you come up with! Sapphire Re: First day on Vitamix

Date: January 30, 2007 10:52PM My standard breakfast smoothy:
- the juice of 2 apples and 2 oranges. - 2 bananas - 1 small chunk of ginger (one inch or half inch) - 1 teaspoon of flax seeds.. I also tend to add any fruits left over from the previous day, like berries (strawberries go well in the above), pine-apple, kiwi, whatever I've got lying around. Cheers, Ian.

Date: January 31, 2007 07:11PM If my smoothie is too thick I eat it with a spoon or add water to thin it.
I love a little almond milk in some fruit smoothies too. Last couple of mornings it's been 4 - 5 oranges and 6 stalks celery. If the oranges have a lot of seeds try to remove some of them, they make it taste bitter. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
