Hi All. I tried a breakfast smoothie the other morning and loved it. Does anyone have any low-fat smoothie recipes? Vegetable or fruit smoothies are great, or whatever else you've come up with. High protein smoothies too, if you know of any.

Hi Jennybean :D

Well, by now you've probably figured out a bunch of recipes for smoothies. I love making a smoothie in the morning - it is so simple, good and filling. Recently I've been experimenting with carrot juice smoothies made with soft tofu. This is a powerful blast of nutrients and protein to get me through to lunch.

1 1/2 cups carrot juice
2 tbsp frozen orange juice concentrate
1 cup orange juice
1 300g package soft tofu
1 grated carrot

Throw the lot in a blender and enjoy.

Of course, smoothies are great cause they can be made with about anything. Ones with yogurt and fruit with milk to slosh everything up are my favorites. Add a little honey to sweeten it if you like.

Happy Breakfasts!
