Chocolate Yogurt Smoothie

By Michelle | December 30, 2016

Chocolate Yogurt Smoothie is one of those winning combinations. This smoothie is full of proteins, which means that it’s ideal to be consumed after a workout. It contains Greek yogurt, which is a great help in recovery after a workout. It also boosts your immune system and contains beneficial bacteria, which are essential to proper digestion and assimilation of nutrients. It will provide you with much needed Calcium and Potassium, too.

Cocoa powder tastes super great. But that’s not the main reason for its presence in our smoothie. Cocoa powder helps you clean your organism from free radicals, and keeps a smile on your face, since it has strong anti-depressant properties. It also reduces the risk of blood clots and increases blood flow through your muscles, giving the more oxygen and helping them recover faster. Banana is packed with energy and flavor, so our smoothie will not only recover your body, but your soul too.

There is also a little bit of honey to add the sweetness. All in all, this smoothie really tastes heavenly and recovers your body from fatigue very quickly. If you are looking for a protein rich smoothie that doesn’t contain expensive protein powder and tastes great, then you have found it.

Blue Yogurt Smoothie

By Michelle | December 30, 2016

During the hot days, everybody needs something nice and refreshing. Well, this smoothie is all that and more. It’s creamy, healthy and delicious. And if your kids don’t like yogurt, just don’t tell them about it. Instead, serve them with this smoothie and watch them enjoy.

The recipe itself is really simple. First off, one cup of plain unflavored yogurt and one cup of fruit you have at hand at the moment. It can be berries, bananas, pineapple, peaches – anything works! There are so many delicious combinations… You literaly can’t go wrong when making this smoothie.

Berries are full of antioxidants and good for cleaning organism. Bananas will give you energy, peaches are good for the eyes and pineapple is full of vitamins and it tastes super great. Every fruit you put in your smoothie will help you to stay young and healthy, and above all – in good mood!

Add some milk to regulate the consistency of your smoothie. If you like your smoothie to be very thick, then you can leave out the milk. If you wish, you can replace cow milk with almond or nut milk. It’s important to have some fruit juice or honey for sweetness. Honey may be the better choice since it adds sweetness without messing with the purity of the fruit you decided to use. Also, honey doesn’t thin out the smoothie. At the end, we add a lot of ice, to make our smoothie a bit more like a milkshake.

This is one summer smoothie. Very light, refreshing and tasty.
