I haven't tried any savory smoothies yet and I have a bunch of cilantro that I'd like to use in it. I love cilantro so I thought that would be a good place to start.
Does anyone have any savory smoothies they would be willing to share? I know I could probably google one but I trust you all more than google.

I like to use Cilantro just as a Green in Smoothies. Here I can get at least 10 or more Bunches when on Sale for $1-.

You're lucky! It's always almost $1. a bunch here and I've been buying it for years just for a few sprigs to put in guacamole then the rest just sits in the fridge until it rots then I throw it out. It would be wonderful if I could incorporate it into my smoothies.
I did google it and the only smoothies that came up had grapefruit in it and I made a GS with grapefruit a couple weeks ago and had to throw it out - it was so disgusting and I love grapefruit, lol! I wasted 4 grapefruit on that one.
I'm thinking cilantro, celery, lime .... I dunno what else to add? cucumber maybe?

Don't let it go bad, just add it to the Smoothie and add Fruit and taste add somthing else, taste until you come up with a Great tasting Smoothie. And if it don't taste good........you have to drink it anyway:).

I use cilantro in my sweet smoothies all the time. I like the taste, and getting rid of heavy metals is a plus in my book.

I call it:
Guaco-smoothie!
I cup cilantro
juice of 1 lime
dash of salt
1 large juicy tomato
1 avocado
Add enough water to get it to smoothie texture instead of guaco texture.
I have a cheapie blender - so I do the water, juice, salt, tomato and cilantro and blend really well - then add the avo.
