You won't get everything you need out of a smoothie.

I don't use reciepes as such - i just make it up as i go along!!!

Vanilla/plain yoghurt (or skim milk) with any of you're favourite fruits!
I find all the different sorts of berries, and also bananas give the best results.
I love passionfruit but i hate the seeds when they are all crushed up and it's a pain in the arse trying to pick them out!

Hope this helps!!!

Yeah, agreed with Milne.

You probably shouldn't have them as a substitute for breakkie, but rather as a snack

I don't touch the stuff honestly.

i know it might not be enough, but better than my chocolate donut/ice coffee/toast thing i have been doing for years.

Barge Breakfast Smoothie.

- 4 Weet Bix bars, crushed.
- Cup of milk.
- 1 Banana, diced.
- 4 tablespoons of protein powder.
- 1 tablespoon bundy or assorted rum.
- Blender.

Serves one.

Stuff 'em all in & blend for 2 minutes, and this formula should make your day.

A milkshake that goes down nicely in my family: milk, yoghurt, ice cream, banana, malt.

One I usually make is this:

- Couple of tea spoons of vanilla yoghurt
- Couple of spoons of ice cream
- Cup of milk
- One whole diced banana
- Mix with blender

Takes less than a couple of minutes to make

The banana smoothies seem to be popular ... bananas are supposed to be the best fruit to have for breakfast. I just have skim milk, banana, vanilla icecream and milo. Like Scrumhalf said, extras like protein powder make it a better breakfast substitute.
