    Smoothies are a great way to get nutrition in your body in a delicious way. This smoothie doesn't contain extra sugar if you hadn't noticed. So make sure to use a nice ripe banana for sweetness.
    I like adding the raw cashews, which I bought at Trader Joe's, for some richness, protein and thickness. The chia seeds also add a couple of grams of protein per tablespoon and also help thicken up your smoothie to a milkshake consistency.
    Ingredients:
    1 ripe banana
    1/2 cup of blueberries or a bit more
    1 thumbnail of fresh ginger, peeled
    1/3 cup raw cashews
    1 Tbsp. chia seeds
    good dash of cinnamon (I love cinnamon!)
    4 ice cubes
    1 cup of liquid I used water, or milk, almond milk, coconut milk or water, etc.
    Place all ingredients into a blender (I recommend the vitamix) and blend away for 45 to 60 seconds for a rich, creamy and smooth smoothie. It's so thick you could call this a shake.
    It stays with you for hours too. Give it a try and let me know how you like it by leaving a comment below!

    Wow! Haven’t thought to put nuts in a smoothie, yet I guess I’ve put almond butter in one in the past! 🤔 And, I totally need a vitamix. My Magic Bullet is not nearly as powerful! I make a similar smoothie, but instead of cashews, I add frozen peaches and raw kale! Yummy. Bananas make all smoothies good!

    • @AaronAbram
      @AaronAbram 4 роки тому

      Hi Brenda, Vitamix are great but they're very expensive. An average Vitamix costs $400 to $500. I've found that a $100 blender can do most types of smoothies especially if you add some extra water. However, I did splurge for a juicer. But the difference is that the top of the line juicer to make green juice for consumers is less than $400. It's worth looking into. Anyways, if you're curious about checking out another Blueberry Smoothie recipe, I'm premiering my recipe on my channel later today and I'd love to hear what you think of it!

    • @rterrelljones
      @rterrelljones 4 роки тому +2

      Hi, Marge. Getting "enough protein" is a false concept. Have you ever met anyone with a protein deficiency? I haven't. How would you know if you're getting "enough" protein? The answer is, even if you ate nothing but fruit for a week, you'd be getting enough protein. Yes, even fruit has protein. As carbon beings, our cells need sugar (in the form of fructose, not processed sugar) to survive, not protein. Just make the smoothy with the bananas (but use ripe bananas, with some brown spots) and blueberries, someone suggested coconut water - that's excellent. And for some nice texture, add a few Tbsp cacao nibs (broken bits of cacao beans). You'll be getting all the protein you need (unless you're a bodybuilder!).

Eat real whole foods and the calories will take care of themselves. You can google the calories in a banana, the blueberries etc. and get an estimate. Hope that helps. Thanks for stopping in.

    When I construct my blueberry smoothies: I use 1 cup soy milk. 1 ripe banana. 1 cup frozen blueberries & tbl.spoon of honey. Almost similar to you're recipe minus the seeds. I would like to start adding cinnamon for an extra kick. Unfortunately I have to omit the seeds because of an aging diverticulitis issue. That won't make or break the recipe will it ? You say you use a handful of raw unsalted cashews ? I can handle that, if they're ground right. Thanx...

    • @RockinRobinCooks
      @RockinRobinCooks  8 років тому +1

      +super duper It won't be a problem to leave out the seeds. Your smoothie may not be as thick as with them but you can thicken it up by adding a bit more banana or cutting down on your milk. Adding a couple cubes of ice will also thicken things up a bit too. The cashews will thicken it up also. Happy New Year!
