Starting out feelings and questions...

[SandraDee]

Hello...

I'm just starting out (again) LoL... and I've noticed that a lot of times I try to eat something "blended" I find it kinda gross. Much less enjoyable than the whole foods. Is this normal in the beginning and will it change?

Green smoothies... queens of blended :p At the present I have a blender... not the really good one that some of you have. So it doesn't actually blend things to a pulp. Does anyone have a recommendation for a good green smoothie to try... including amounts of each item (incl. water please).

Thanks!!!

Hey SandraDee! As far as a taste for things blended changing, well, everyone is different. You may find that you NEVER like the texture of blended meals, or, you may find certain recipes that appeal to you. Don't force yourself into anything that's going to make you yak! On the green smoothie front, one that I really enjoy is as follows ~ 2 cups baby spinach (could also use 5-6 leaves romaine), 1 banana, 1 1/2 cups frozen blueberries, 2-3 cups water (depending on how thick you want it), few drops of stevia liquid (optional)....blend blend blend, and voilà! Yum City! Oh, and I have a craptacular blender as well, and it seems to blend this mixture up quite well. Happy blending!

Thanks a bunch Shell... I tried that, and it takes great!! I used mixed berries b/c that's what I have so it's a bit seedy... but still like it! I also tried it before I put in the berries and the banana/romain combo was good too.

Thank you!!!
