Healthy Quick & Easy Smoothies: 100 No-Fuss Recipes Under 300 Calories You Can Make with 5 Ingredients Kindle Edition

I have been looking for a smoothie recipe book for a while and this one is IT!This book has GREAT, simple, recipes, what it does NOT have is a bunch of shilling for the author's blog or unnecessary biographical details about the author or extraneous information about the ingredients or the "smoothie lifestyle." A few smoothies have some unusual ingredients, but nothing you have to trek to the jungles of South America to find. There are just enough unusual recipes to switch things up every once in a while and enough recipes for which you can find ingredients in the winter such that the book is very useful.In essence, it has lots of tasty, straightforward recipes, attractive illustrations, good tips, and pertinent nutrition information included. So far, I've made about 9 of these (had the book about 4 days!) and liked ALL 9!! The tomato basil smoothie is very refreshing and a nice homemade substitute for V8. I was SHOCKED to enjoy the kale-banana smoothie. Previously, I have HATED kale, as in "why do people say mean things like 'here, try this kale'"-HATED. My husband, whose only plant consumption are starches, actually didn't mind the kale-banana smoothie; that's EPIC! The cauliflower-almond butter smoothie? GENIUS!I cannot say enough great things about this book. It was worth EVERY PENNY! My weight has yo-yo'ed for ten years and a couple years ago, I used smoothies as a way to finally lose a significant amount of weight, but I didn't use a recipe book, I just searched the internet (as many smoothie makers do) and fell into a less-than-appetizing rut of the same few combinations. This smoothie book has totally changed the smoothie game for me; I enjoy them again and more so than I ever did!

The Smoothies are easy to make and photography clear and appetizing. The publisher was trying to be cute with a variety of fonts and using very light print interspaced with clear easy to read text. . I am visually impaired and have particular difficulty reading pages 7 through 15 and the entire index. ingredients are very clear but the process of making the smoothies are hard to read. The worst example is page 15, "Making Modifications and uqAdding Boosters", very helpful information I'm sure but to me it is a blur. Although a great book for most readers its questionable for the visually impaired, even a magnifying glass doesn't help with the faint text.

This is a terrific book to introduce you to making smoothies and frozen pops! I had never had a smoothie before but I acquired a decent blender recently and decided to try making some. My first attempt was the Blueberry Blast. I did not like this selection made with cottage cheese, so I substituted vanilla yogurt instead. A winner! I froze my leftovers into pops and they are so good! I love the simplicity of each receipe but there are plenty of suggestions and variations to make things interesting. I suspect I will be trying some new foods and flavor combinations as I gain more experience with this. I also like knowing that the calorie count is 300 or less!

Really does have some easy recipes. Gave me good ideas of what to purchase to make more flavors. Have liked all that I have tried so far and they are not high in calories like at the retail smoothie places. Who would have thought that you could add cottage cheese or cream cheese to a smoothie and have it taste creamy?

Just seemed as tho there should have been more diversity in the recipes...was a little disappoiinted...but...was helpful since this was the first time we ever tried to make smoothies at home.

This is a great book. I have been trying the smoothies one by one and all of them have been great. My vita mix is getting a work out because I am using it nearly every day. The book is easy to read end it is grouped so that you can pick the type of smoothie do you want to make

I never thought smoothies could be this good!!This book has creative and delicious recipes. Everyone should buy it!!!

Got this for my bf he’s getting into smoothies. Some really weird recepies.

I bought this for my granddaughter's 12th birthday to go with her smoothie maker. She has been delighted with it and is working her way through large parts of the book. What makes it so good for her is that the recipes are easy to source, the instructions are clear and it contains largely fruit smoothies which is what she was seeking.

Love this book. Gives you information on each smoothie and calories etc.

Recipe book for young adult - fingers crossed

I bought two of these one for myself and one for my daughter. The book has nice glossy pictures, the recipes are quick to make and products are easily found at your local supermarket. Delivery was also very quick. I'm very pleased and would highly recommend this book to others looking for healthier alternatives to high sugar beverages.

I really like that they show the complete nutrition for all recipes. Few ingredients makes it easy to have everything in stock
