first of all don't ask what others like, you'll get some weird answers

start with your favourite fruit, mine is  banana
add a glass or two of water,
JEN suggested blending fruit first to make it smoother and it works
the other suggestion was tougher things first which seemed logical but there you go
add a bland green leaf eg. lettuce
my favourite is bok choy only because I never used to eat it
and a few dates
i prefer a smoothy consistancy rather than too runny

Mmm, had a delicious one this morning. First, fill up the food processor (mine is small) with silverbeet (you can use a more 'bland' green like lettuce or baby spinach) add a little bit of parsley or dill then approx. equal parts water and young coconut water (or all water if you can't get young cocos). Process this until its as smooth as you can get (depends on how good your blender/food processor is. Then add banana, peach and mango and blend/food process until smooth and creamy. The amount of fruit you need depends on how big your blender is and how much water you have.

hey, never thought of it that way

where im at, we have an oversupply of ripe bananas. i find spotty ripe ones give the best smoothy creme flavour.

this morn i had fresh dates, ripe bananas and organic kale. it was so thick i had to pour it into a bowl and spoon it into my gob!!

chunky!

I just stir in the froth... if you let the froth sit it just melts down into juice anyway (in my experience). Or if you put it in a sealed bottle and shake it all gets mixed in.

ok, good, we don't have a compost because nothing much gets past the chooks and worm farm

but I haven't reached the stage of bringing food scraps home from the office

Hi
My favourite smoothy will usually have something redish in it, berries or tamarillo.  I pack as much as I can into the blender without it exploding over the sides.

Huge handful of pumkin seeds and about a cup or 2 of water, whizz till seeds are fine,
add:
half a pineapple
an apple
a pear
couple of kiwifruit
a tamarillo and/or frozen berries

half a banana or tahini (if it will fit)

blend and enjoy all morning long.

I am keen to make green smoothies now (just a matter of getting my head around the thought of lettuce/spinach and sprouts in a smoothie - juice I can imagine, but I have not yet invested in a juicer $$$ )

hope you have had some luck with your smoothie making.

kind regards
