Yet another question about smoothies

[mrs_overall]

Does anyone have any smoothie suggestions that do NOT include milk and bananas please?

i like raspberrys and blueberry's whizzed up with ice and fizzy water

[mrs_overall]

That sounds good. (My youngest is lactose intolerant and hates 'nanas so I am stumped for ideas).

[mccfluff]

how about tangerine and mango or pineapple, both even!

pear and ginger is good

i've had melon and mint before which was really refreshing.

i love smooties but i'm not a huge fan of combining dairy and fruit, so i tend to use whatever i fancy and just substitute fizzy water for the milk, it makes it thinner than a convential smoothie but i like them!

Try a savoury one: 1/2 Avocado, a ring of red onion, a tomato, a teaspoon of chili sauce, 25g oats (yes porridge oats) and V8 or tomato juice to make it liquid. sort of "guacamoats" smoothy! (This is also a cholesterol buster.)

Porridge in a smoothy will help to thicken in place of banana and doesnt detract from the fruit taste.

Any fruit you fancy, mixed with red grape juice is really good too - Strawberry and melon is really nice.

I've tried them all over the weekend & they were all delicious. Many thanks. (Junior Overall wasn't too keen on the savoury one but I loved it.)

hi,just add lots of red berries to some cloudy apple juice,its lush. plus you can buy dairy free ice cream which is always nice in a smoothie,or just use a bio yougart. x
