Smoothies that are SMOOTH- no seeds, etc
OK, so I am the PICKIEST eater ever. I annoy myself. I am not a breakfast person and that needs to change to lose weight so I would love to start making breakfast smoothies. I have 2 issues though.
- I HATE seeds/pieces in my smoothies. so things like strawberries and blueberries freak me out although they taste delish
- I'm allergic to apples so what is another good sweet fruit to help cut the earthiness of the veggies I want to put in.
Any advice?

What type of blender do you use? If you have a high speed blender like vitamix, no matter what you put in them, your smoothie will be smooth. I use a variety of fruit in my green smoothies but for someone who is just starting, frozen bananas are a good choice. I cut up ripe bananas into one inch pieces and put them a zip lock bag and keep them in the fridge.

I wanted to add that adding a little of fresh ginger and lemon helps cut back on the earthiness of vegetables. Pineapple and mangoes are great too. Check out the website 'simple green smoothies' for ideas.

I'd love to get a vitamix but can't spend the money right now. Hopefully in the future. I do love mango and pineapple!

I find kiwi masks all other favors. Even just one will overcome the flavor of the 1-2 cups of spinach o use.
