Anything Goes Smoothie

Anything Goes Smoothie

I decided to throw a bunch of random things like these into a blender the other day to create a smoothie surprise. I wasn’t sure what I would end up with, but it was damn delicious.

Coconut, Mango & Pineapple Smoothie

Coconut, Mango & Pineapple Smoothie

If you have leftover coconut milk from baking or making a savoury dish, use it in this tropical fruit smoothie.

Purple Smoothie

Purple Smoothie

For this smoothie, a rich purple colour was the goal so I started with blueberries and sweet cherries. The flavour wasn’t quite there so I added some mango. That did the trick.

Orange Smoothie

Orange Smoothie

This smoothie features peaches, mango, and carrot juice. I found the smell and taste of the carrot juice overpowering and not entirely pleasant. Fragrant passion fruit juice masked the carrots completely.

Red Smoothie

Red Smoothie

I developed this recipe as part of a school snack program to highlight red fruits and vegetables. As with other vegetables, the key to using beets is masking the flavour. Pomegranate juice accomplishes that goal.

Green Smoothie

Green Smoothie

I served this green smoothie in my school snack program using a combination of kale, spinach, and Swiss chard. It was a huge hit.
