Smoothies: Whatever fruit you have available (I use frozen)
Yogurt
Whey Protein (if you are allergic to milk, try soy protein) optional
A little water (to get your blender going)
Fiber Drink: 1 banana
Handful of Pineapple
Handful of baby carrots or 1 carrot
1 Stalk Celery (we omit)
A little water
Crushed Ice (The secret to a great fiber drink is lots of ice!)
*We got this recipe from a holistic doctor our family frequented. He specially formulated this concoction, claiming that they all work together to remove the body of toxins. Actually he says 1/2 an apple but we use 1. Anyway, the pineapple breaks up our muscles to allow toxins to move through and that's all I remember of what each fruit/veggie does :)
I am going to try Dr. Oz's Green Drink as well or I may just play around with adding spinach or parsley to the fiber drink. Once you get going on these drinks, you can save less time with dinner by skipping on veggie prep and baking. You can then proceed to enjoy your evening! The girl in the link below has already tried Dr. Oz's drink and made a few modifications based on what she had. This is what she has to say about it:
Trying Dr. Oz's Green Drink
Here's Dr. Oz talking about his blended drink and what to eat before and after exercising. It was an informative clip for me.

If you end up trying any of these, do let me know how utterly fabulous it is to save time and worry with these simple healthy drinks! Also, other yummy blended drink recipes appreciated!
