Max Smoothie II
(makes two very generous, very nutritious smoothies)
Good for chemo days and any day. Dairy can be omitted if necessary.
In a large Vita Mix or high-powered blender, place these ingredients in this order:
½ Cup almond, soy or rice milk-organic
1 can (Thai Kitchen Organic, First Press) Coconut Milk
½ cup Organic, whole milk, sugar-free live culture yogurt, fresh
½ ripe avocado
½ ripe banana
1/2 Cup LEF Creatine Whey Protein with Glutamine (Life Extension Vanilla)
2 Tablespoons organic almond butter
¼ cup Organic Hemp Oil
¼ cup Organic Coconut oil
*1 cup fresh or frozen, sugar free organic strawberries
*½ cup fresh or frozen organic, preferably wild blueberries
½ cup fresh organic spinach
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 scoops Green Defense (available from Life Extension)
**
Turn blender on medium, and add slowly: enough water to make a smooth, drinkable texture, usually about ½ cup water.
Blend on high, for about a minute, but use your own judgment to get a nice texture, and serve in two tall glasses. If not consuming immediately, place in refrigerator in a glass with a sealing top, and consume within 24 hours.
*You can mix up the fruits, and use more or less, depending on taste preferences.
**I also add one or two Bio Max III pre-ground vitamins to these on some days, depending on taste preferences and texture preferences of the chemo cycle.
