10 Common Smoothie Mistakes | What NOT to do!

[@TheCOSMETICLOVER]

1) Too much milk (Use half milk half water) 2) Don’t overuse fruits (Use more veg) 3) Too little healthy fats and fibre 4) No need for extra sweeteners (Honey, maple syrup, juice) 5) Using protein powders with lots of sugars 6) Not adding real fresh raw leafy greens (Spinach, Kale) 7) Too little variety in smoothie ingredients (Rotate ingredients) 8) Use a good blender (Recommended blenders linked in description) 9) Not using ripened fruit 10) Not adding in protein (Not necessarily protein powder) Hope that helps if your short on time :)

John Appleseed but why is what I was waiting for

[@JessicaSmith-gd1fu]

When I get home from the market, I put my greens ( usually Kroger power greens) in sandwich bags (2 cups per) and pop them in the freezer. If I don't do this, I frequently lose some greens when they become slime. I agree with you that every smoothie needs greens. For me it is 2 cups in every smoothie.

[@latoya1274]

[@markeishawilliams6113]

I feel the same

[@__SAK__]

I make green smoothies almost every day and I sweeten them with a spoonful of orange juice concentrate. It may be too much sugar but I feel that since I really pack in lots of kale and spinache in my smoothies that it's worth it to make it more palateable. Over time I will try to decrease the amount of oj however.

[@yumiko0017]

One piece of Kale is powerful. I think you’re good 😊

[@ricanolla7370]

The vitamin C in the orange juice enhances the absorption of iron in the greens.

[@tortillion123]

I get a big bag of spinach or kale from the garden. I freeze them for smoothies since they don't last long in the fridge

[@marquitashiver6141]

Good idea. Thanks for that.

[@hfaceyjr]

Wow, never thought to freeze them..I waste so much spinach or kale.

[@lokeyborders]

Yesss buy a few packs and store it in freezer bags. You do kale like that also.

[@amandahanisch2446]

Is it not ok to just use frozen bagged kale & spinach?

[@noelogden1625]

I use turmeric and ginger tea as my smoothie base. It works beautifully and keeps my stomach from cramping up. I also use the Ace blender which works really well and isn't expensive. I use oat flour and nut butter for protein and I have to use a tablespoon of honey when I put celery in my smoothie because the celery taste is just too strong.

[@meMYSELFnU]

Oat flour has protein?! Are you sure? That's the first I hear of that. Update: OK, I checked and you're right :) However, I'll opt for using just oat milk instead. I wouldn't want the smoothie to get too thick.

[@kaaylaskorner]

🌟My best tip: blend all ingredients except the protein and avocado.... then in a medium to low speed add in them in (it prevents extra air bubbles) my tummy does not like extra bubbles 😆 I am such a smoothie lover also 😍I use my vitamin like three times a day 🎉

[@HealthNutNutrition]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@barbecuesauceeyebrows8254]

Very interesting. I always blend the protein on high bc i feel like it thins the smoothie more, whereas when my mom makes it on low speed it is very thick… but maybe i will try your suggestion and see how it comes out.

[@DP-ih6nt]

I’m one who likes the fibery feel in my smoothies, as it tends to slow me down with drinking it. Absolutely LOVE to throw in some oats or even some broccoli for the fibery feel. 😊

I was surprised you didn't mention beans. Great fiber, protein and really fills you up that way. I put about 1/3 c of garbanzo or white beans in most of my smoothies. Otherwise, you had some great tips! I've learned much from you over the years!

[@ioanfilip3586]

Can you add white beans or kidney beans? Thanks John

[@massages_for_world_peace8909]

Oh cool tip! I need to get more beans in! I bet black beans into my chocolate smoothies would be great b/c there are black bean brownie desserts that taste good. :) thanks for the ideas!

[@CHRISTALMOUNTAIN]

Kidney beans must be cooked first, otherwise soaked or sprouted or raw - poisonous.

[@k.h.6991]

Yes, (cooked) beans make smoothies more silky and filling. (They count as fiber and they have protein, so you don't need to get protein powder)

[@evethehamster3079]

I put oats in mine. Oats provide lots of fiber + texture.

[@LittleKokeshiDoll]

Hey, so, if you are the smoothie queen, how about some advice for people who want to do healthy smoothies that doesn't have that budget to be constantly changing up their ingredients and constantly using fresh ingredients. In fact, I would love to see a 30-day minimal budget smoothie challenge. (And I mean like.... only $100 for a months-worth of smoothies)

A lot of times people add way too much fruit so it just makes the smoothie way to full of sugar. Most smoothies contain way more fruit than anyone would think about eating in one sitting

[@rosejanet4066]

For sure! Nothing wrong with fresh fruits blended with veggies! Thats just a preference of hers. You go ahead and enjoy your smoothies with your added fruit! We just have to make sure we don't consume too much of the sweeter fruits that are higher sugar, thats all. If your drinking them instead of eating, by all means , you add the fruits that you love!

[@alijahgrenn2337]

Same here! Don’t like smoothie taste like veggies. Love it with fruits! I put my fruits in the freezer. Strawberries, pineapple, orange, mango and cantaloupe. Add 1tbs honey and 1tbs apple cider vinegar.

Peas are 8g of protein per cup. It's filling, green, starchy, and has protein. Kind of a win everywhere. Also, peas are gross and it helps to eat them this way. 😂

Thank you for sharing. Glad you brought up the “ over sweetening”. I’m new to the crafting of smoothies here’s were I need some counsel. The research I’ve done most seem to be sweet. I’d rather drink a V8 rather then a taste of ice cream. If you, or others can direct me in some recipes that may lean towards the V8 taste I’d greatly appreciate it.

What if you add Monk Fruit powder or Quercetin? They are sweet.

My go to smoothie: About a cup of Greek yoghurt or soy yoghurt (unsweetened or vanilla) Handful of redberries from our garden (frozen) Teaspoon of sea-buckthorn juice or around three berries, again from my garden Half tablespoon of honey Blend together and enjoy! Obviously, this turns out quite sour but that's how I like it and doesn't have much ingredients. I sometimes put in bananas and other berries I pick from my garden, but this is my favourite. Simple and good. Sidenote, I live in Finland

[@Sweetamber222]

The “half milk half water” just saved me! I was running through sooo many cartons of Oat milk. 😩😩😩

[@nayten1294]

oat milk is very expensive and super easy to make!! use 1 part oats to 3 parts water, blend with sweetener and a pinch of salt strain with a nut milk bag for best results but a strainer or cheesecloth works too! it can be stored for about a week in the fridge.

[@tinesrensen3684]

Hi :D I think you can add water and oats to your blender alone and blend so that you get oatmilk with pulp. Then add the veggies and fruit. The oat pulp will not be noticeable in a smoothie plus it is extra fiber.

[@bettystroh6504]

If you have a high powered blender, Just toss a few pinches of oats into the blender with your water and smoothie ingredients ~ the oat milk gets made at the same time as the smoothie 😊

[@techloot-f7f]

You don't have to waste money on an expensive blender. Just blend longer.

If you blend long [or longer] the heat will destroy the nutrients, so in essence, you want to minimize the processing time. That's why it is so expensive.

Cheap ass method u gonna have to buy another blender when that trash blender breaks down 2 days after the warranty expires lol get a Vitamix Ascent 10 year warranty. I could play baseball with this shit and still be fine lol

[@AndrewBrowner]

@@NewYork-ILDIKONYARI the heat from blending will destroy the nutrients..... get your head together maybe if you blend it until the neighbours are at the door yelling you might warm it up slightly but youre not gonna cook black blending it for 90seconds

[@MrBanjo1954]

Nice lady just brought blender looking forward to following some of her tips

My new room mate has a Ninja blender and it's improved my smoothie life ten fold

[@HealthNutNutrition]

😊A good blender makes such a difference doesn't it?!

[@4220E]

I have the ninja blender as well and I love it

[@Twigz1227]

Nutribullet Pro 900 Series is my absolute favorite. My blender is my cup and out the door. It blends everything so smooth I use it for everything

[@beverlywalcott3154]

Thank you. Great video. I have learnt so much in making my smoothies. Will continue to watch.

My #1 smoothie tip: eat it with something solid, such as toast, granola, nuts, or whole fruit. This is the only way I’ve found smoothies will keep me full.

[@TheAgiovannym]

I live with my sister and I want to start making smoothies again in the morning for the both of us. Great tips! Love bananas! I love my Vitamix!

[@gabrielagarcia-fp2eb]

What about yogurt? I put Greek yogurt in my smoothie

[@mian.nguyen]

As long as its plain, meaning no sugar added, then it's the best.

[@HealthNutNutrition]

Yes you absolutely could! I'd try to use plain greek yogurt so that there's less sugar.

[@Anna-tc6rz]

If you wanna make it next level, make your own yogurt.

[@leahmaranto6146]

You can switch, between milk and plain yogur, add a little water 😊

[@arashalavi440]

I don’t

[@gif24gt60]

Should you steam cruciferous vegetables before putting them in smoothies? And should Chia and flax seeds be soaked and rinsed overnight before putting them in smoothies?

[@WedartStudio]

Thanks for your videos! You’re doing a great job! 😊🌐🌐😊

[@annejames890]

I love your video and the motivation you give to new juicers .

[@juliagane317]

Tofu has great protein and it adds a great creaminess

[@HealthNutNutrition]

never added it to a smoothie before

[@Michelleelise444]

Silken tofu, I've considered it! Like, in place of yogurt?

[@NickWilliams016]

Legion Athletics Protein Powder is my go to since it has mostly simple ingredients and they routinely test to ensure the producer is meeting the expectations set by Legion. I use Strawberry/Banana powder for most Fruit Smoothies. They also have unflavored which is great for smoothies as there are other flavors to make them taste amazing. I love the idea of adding Healthy Fats to ensure it keeps you feeling full longer. Vitamix and Blendtec are amazing Blenders! I use a Vitamix at home, but when I worked for Starbuck's as a youngster, the Frappacino blenders are all Blendtecs.

[@joannemcardle1848]

Breville is another great blender.

[@dzaval49er]

“i know not everyone can go out and buy a $600 blender, i get it.” 🤪

[@essence4life23]

I'm going to start adding the veggies I don't like and rotate the greens because I only use baby spinach. This will help me have more veggies.

[@NAS43462]

Excellent presentation! I am a nutritionist/health coach. It is easy to overdo the fruits. A combination of healthy fats, protein and carbohydrates is best. Avocado is technically a fruit and can be used as such without adding sugar.

[@chrisbullock6477]

Pitted and chopped Dates not only naturally sweeten but also have lots of fiber.

[@sashapeirce5936]

I loved this. I basically have been binge watching all your videos for about 6 weeks now. The pregnancy and baby videos are my fav. Watching you always have your green smoothie got me on the hype. Me and my partner have a green smoothie every morning now. This made me realise i need to mix it up with my veggies and fats!!! Thank you
