I've been making daily smoothies lately. I've never been a breakfast person and I take meds now that make me even less hungry, so being able to drink a real meal is a great boon to me. I'm going to document and rate my creations here, feel free to follow along or add your own of course. Smoothies are very easy, just throw your breakfast in the blender and drink it. Use frozen fruit, that's about all there is to it. Today's smoothie: Banana, Cantaloupe, and Strawberry Add cooked oatmeal, plain yogurt, and some milk to thin it out. https://i.imgur.com/KQLdhBR.mp4 Verdict: Not bad, the cantaloupe was a little bland but all the flavors come through in the end and the flavors mesh well. 🥤🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 4/5

Today: Banana, Pineapple, Mango, Vanilla Greek yogurt, Oatmeal, milk to thin https://i.imgur.com/Gu0zNjD.mp4 Pretty good. Banana could have been riper when I froze it and the pineapple flavor is a little hidden. Mango tastes good, a fine tropical mix 🥤🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 4/5 PokeJoe fucked around with this message at 18:04 on May 21, 2022 |

It's Monday, the worst day of the week. Or more accurately it's the day you have to go back to work. If you don't work, Mondays are just fine. Banana, Peach, Blueberry, Spinach, Oatmeal, Yogurt, Milk https://i.imgur.com/SXwlXIa.mp4 The peach and blueberry flavors destructively interfere or something, this one is kinda boring despite it's great color 🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 3/5

It's Tuesday, you know what that means. Banana, Pineapple, and Spinach https://i.imgur.com/RpCcrZw.mp4 Used a honeyglow pineapple this time and the flavor comes through really well. No spinach taste 🥤🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 4/5

I am morally opposed to cooked oatmeal in smoothies, but otherwise looks nice

I used to just use raw rolled oats but cooking a big batch once a week and using it from the fridge does make a smoother drink and it's only slightly less lazy. Banana, pineapple, cherry, honeydew melon, spinach, oatmeal, yogurt, milk https://i.imgur.com/LnuCO2X.mp4 This honeydew is downright tasteless. Thankfully it's a melon so I have a lot of it and get to use it for many days to come! The other fruits make it passable but it's a whole lot of nothing 🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 2/5

I found some chia seeds in the back of my pantry and added them to my oatmeal batch to make it even more of a gummy mess. Mango, Banana, Honeydew, berries, spinach, oatmeal, chia, Greek Yogurt, milk. https://i.imgur.com/hVVvjzO.mp4 Better than yesterday but I can't wait to never buy another honeydew what a trash melon for morons (me) to buy 🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 3/5

Gotta get down on on Friday Banana, pineapple, peach https://i.imgur.com/4GnPVSX It's okay, can't keep doing the honeydew every day so I had to switch it a bit. Peach flavor is a little lost again. 🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 3/5

Saturday. The gf is going on a hike with a coworker and I'm doing gently caress all at home. Probably gonna...watch tv Banana, Pineapple, Berries. The honeyglow pineapple is noticably more flavorful than whatever the typical cultivar is. https://i.imgur.com/5A7T16I Not bad, not amazing. Perhaps too many berries, would consider omitting the strawberry. Better than any with honeydew still 🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 3/5

Hey, thanks for this thread. I'd been planning on doing smoothies in the morning but hadn't gotten around to it. Going to the store tomorrow and will make the first Monday morning.

You won't regret it. Or maybe you will, I don't know what you like. Cherry, Banana, Mango, Greek Yogurt, Oatmeal and Chia, Milk Didn't add enough milk so today's vid is kinda lame https://i.imgur.com/QlKUjCQ.mp4 Hell yeah cherry still rules 🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 5/5

Do you get bitterness with the pineapple and milk? My gf used to make a lot of smoothies, and she switched to almond milk because it got bitter as it sat and the bromelain broke down the casein.
|
# ? May 29, 2022 23:43 |
Nope, I drink my smoothies immediately and haven't noticed any weirdness using pineapple. Sometimes I save some for the gf to drink the next day and she's never complained about it but I'll ask her to pay attention if I remember next time. Banana, strawberry, cherry, raspberry, blueberry, blackberry, Greek yogurt, raspberries and cream yogurt, oat chia sludge, milk https://i.imgur.com/ExM30ES.mp4 Good as ever, red smoothies are the best 🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 5/5

The usual mixers plus banana, strawberry, and whatever the hell a "hami hami" melon is No vid today, I recorded a slowmo one but the camera syncs with my LED lights and it's seizure inducing Pretty decent, the melon flavor comes through more than I expected it to. Much better than honeydew 🍈 🥤🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 4/5

It's that time again. My gf used the last of the milk so I thinned today's smoothie with cold brew coffee. Trying to get rid of this honeydew by disguising it with other, better fruits. Also out of bulk yogurt so using some raspberry and marionberry individual cups. https://i.imgur.com/hDNftdy.mp4 It's pretty good! The coffee flavor comes through and helps to cover up the blandness of the honeydew. 🥤🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 4/5

Costco run got me some new treats Banana, "daybreak blend" aka peach, pineapple, strawberry, mango. Last of the chia oat sludge, protein powder, and some Greek yogurt. Still out of milk so more cold brew to thin https://i.imgur.com/zQ2h6qP.mp4 It's ok, milk would have been better than coffee in this one. Too many fruits to add to the coffee flavor. 🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 3/5

# ? Jun 2, 2022 18:13 |
I went and got more milk Oatmeal, protein powder, Greek yogurt, milk, banana, spinach, honeydew, peach, and of course cherry https://i.imgur.com/AhcxM9P.mp4 Always add cherry, it makes every smoothie good. I bought a big Costco bag of them to see if they taste as good as fresh ones I pit myself but haven't opened it yet. 🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 5/5

# ? Jun 3, 2022 17:07 |
Banana, Pineapple, Cherry, spinach and the usual mix ins. https://i.imgur.com/Me83CET.mp4 It's okay, I added a bit too much of the protein powder so it contributes a worse flavor than the fruit. 🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 3/5

Wow nooner that's a pretty unique smoothie don't forget to eat lots of shrimp too to keep your feathers pink Strawberry, Banana, Cherry, and the toss ins https://i.imgur.com/akUl66P.mp4 It's good! I used frozen cherries from Costco instead of ones I pitted myself and they're a little less flavorful but a lot t less effort. 🥤🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 4/5

Been doing smoothies a lot for breakfast the last several years and it has definitely helped me more consistently eat a good breakfast. My default is: strawberries/blueberries/blackberries/raspberries (frozen mix), spinach (also frozen for shelf life/bulk buying), chia seeds (soaked overnight to soften), powdered collagen for my old joints, shelled hemp hearts, ground flax seeds, powdered peanut butter (easier to deal with), nonfat greek yogurt, water sometimes I throw in whatever random vitamins my wife says I need smoothies good!

# ? Jun 6, 2022 06:04 |
Collagen sounds like a nice addition. I thought about getting some psyllium husk for them as well Mango, berry mix, cherry, and the dregs of a fresh fruit bowl. I ran out of frozen banana https://i.imgur.com/HznXS29.mp4 Pretty good, the mixed berry seeds are noticeable though 🥤🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 4/5

Banana, Strawberry, Mixed berry. https://i.imgur.com/SaTAlwP.mp4 False start, air pocket removed and some water added https://i.imgur.com/R4x7nOA.mp4 Solid, banana flavor is actually noticable instead of just making it thicker 🥤🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 4/5

Ran out of milk again, had to thin with water Honeydew (bleh), grapes, cherries, bananas, mixed berries https://i.imgur.com/DUH59Zs.mp4 The water is noticably worse than the milk as a thinner and something just isn't right. Maybe the grape and honeydew? Idk this one ranks low despite the cherries 🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 1/5

After yesterday's horrible disappointment I had to make one today that I knew would be good. Banana strawberry, cherry, spinach, the other poo poo https://i.imgur.com/PV0ojyb.mp4 Strawberry Banana is a classic for a reason and cherries are welcome any time. 🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 5/5

The fruit does a little blender dance before it gets obliterated. Banana, Costco daybreak blend, the last of some berry medley mix, last of my spinach, yogurt, new oats, protein and collagen. And of course milk https://i.imgur.com/XCYOAuT.mp4 The collagen is a little gritty I think, I'm gonna try using less of it tomorrow. Almost like there's bonemeal or the grit from the stock when you use better than bullion. Flavor is fine but I brushed my teeth a little too soon before hand and I can't recommend that. 🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 3/5

# ? Jun 10, 2022 19:12 |
Banana, mango, and a little honeydew https://i.imgur.com/12qvQ3W.mp4 I mixed the collagen with a little water before adding anything else and it absolutely reduced the grittiness, it's not really noticable now. 🥤🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 4/5

I appreciate this thread, I used to make basic fruit smoothies and then kinda just stopped. I know it's super easy but I'm never really sure what to put in them. Now I'm inspired to smooth it up again.

Any particular reason for always using milk? I always use a couple of glugs of fruit juice.I also like to add a couple of ice cubes to make it frosty.

I just think milk tastes best and I don't drink much fruit juice. Sunday: Powders, milk, Oatmeal, Greek yogurt (not pictured) banana, strawberry, and a lot of cherry https://i.imgur.com/bjBJCk2.mp4 Excellent 🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 5/5

Today's fruits: strawberry, banana, hami hami melon https://i.imgur.com/0wWeX2M.mp4 It's good, mild but pleasant flavor and you can taste all the fruits. 🥤🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 4/5 ALSO! I got some cats yesterday. Have not named them yet. They will not be getting smoothies.

Happy Tuesday, my new fat orange cat is warming up to me. The black one will already die for me As far as smoothies go, a warmed up one is pretty bad I'd imagine. The last of my strawberry bag, banana, hami hami, cherry, and the usual not fruits. Tried slowmo again and my phone "smartly" clipped me turning the blender on https://i.imgur.com/sY68nFy.mp4 Anyway it's pretty good. I wish the frozen cherries has as much flavor as fresh one I pit myself but all the flavors are identifiable and good. 🥤🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 4/5

I haven't had a good honeydew in years, at this point they're becoming a distant memory Grocery restock, spinach is back on the menu. Banana, honeydew, and mixed berry https://i.imgur.com/BM3ozDc.mp4 It's a bit boring, honeydew is the culprit and I've got plenty left. 🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 2/5

Berry medley, daybreak blend, honeydew, cherries, spinach, other various goos and powders https://i.imgur.com/zMslLiI.mp4 Pretty solid actually, better than expected. There's too many fruits in here to be able to identify them individually but the overall flavor is nice 🥤🥤🥤🥤/🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 4/5
