update Nov 15th 2010
ok here is how i made it and it really did taste great. serving size is 64 ozs enough for 2 people or you can store it for a few hours in the fridge
2 heads of roamine lettuce from cost ( they were on the smaller size for romaine)
1 oz Bob’s Red Mill Organic Raw Whole Flaxseed Brown from Amazon.com here is the link
10 whole Almonds I get at costco
1 Large Apple
1 whole Pear
2 med size Bananas
1 – 11/2 cups of Frozen Strawberries from Costco
2 cups of water
I blend it all in a Vitamix Hi speed blender link to Amazon here
I start it always the same way first add the water, the flax,almonds, blend first on low then bring up the speed to make sure you really crush the flaxseed to release the oils instead of them, then i add the lettuce, then the whole fruit and lastly the frozen fruits blend just long enough that it all mixes and serve..no ice need when you use the frozen fruit! and i think it taste much better without bit of ice in very mouthful! …any questions just post them
Yes! Please post the recipe. It looks delicious.
I’d love to know the recipe! I adore smoothies! Recently I’ve begun a new fitness and diet program that involved counting calories/protein/carbs, etc. I hated it and ended up in the old habit of binge eating. The ONLY way I’ve ever lost fat is by drinking a smoothie for breakfast and a big one that I sip on throughout the afternoon. Then supper is a HUGE salad and I snack on frozen grapes after work. That smoothie you made looks like a good one to add to my mix.
