Orange cream smoothie
To go along with the holiday theme, I would make a Pumpkin Pie Smoothie…sounds decadent but is actually good for you!
Gosh, I’m not sure. My kids used to hate the smoothies I made at home, but then we found a little smoothie place that they love. Go figure. Turns out, they don’t like yogurt in their smoothies, and I always put yogurt in their smoothies. Now if I make them with just fruit and ice, they will suck them down like there is no tomorrow.
But my blender is not cut out for such frequent smoothie-making, and I worry that it’s going to blow if I make too many more.
I think their favorite is a peach-raspberry smoothie. I have raspberries in the freezer, and I use peaches that I canned myself. A little of the peach syrup sweetens the whole thing perfectly.
banana-orange smoothie
I’d make a smoothie with blueberries, banana, and yogurt.
I’d make a strawberry orange smoothie.
I would totally make a strawberry banana smoothie!
I would make blueberry smoothie first
I love making fruit and kale protein smoothies and these would make it so much easier. Thanks for the giveaway!
I pinned your cranberry smoothie yesterday! I love smoothies, I have just never felt confident about how to make them. :( This would go a long way toward helping me figure that out!
creamy pumpkin smoothies!
I plan on making the non-dairy version of your Cranberry-Vanilla-Cinnamon Smoothie :-)
Vanilla Greek yogurt with vanilla soymilk along with a mix of cherries, bananas, blueberries and also a handful of frozen kale pieces.

I love smoothies, especially strawberry banana.

I’d try this one! And maybe my idea for a milkshake with the same flavor.
Afternoon smoothie for my grandson…Greek yogurt, ripe banana, chia seeds, pear nectar.
Peanut butter banana smoothie for my daughter!
I would make a strawberry mango smoothie.
Winter Spice Kale Smoothie. It is hard to get the kids to eat their veggies, but if you combine them with sweet yummy things they like, it is easy to get those super greens in them! This smoothie is one of my favorites this time of year, nothing like the yummy taste of spiced apples that is actually good for you!
Triple berry:)
I would make my husband an afternoon smoothie with Greek yogurt, blueberries ,ripened bananas, a teaspoon of honey, and a dash of cinnamon.
Mango with banana and yogurt!
Vanilla chai :)
I’m somwhat plain and would make the typical strawberry banana smoothie, with a bit of chocolate! My blender hasn’t crushed ice or anything in years so it would be amazing to be able to make them again.
Pomegranate smoothie, with strawberries and a dash of lemon or lime……………
I would make your recipe for cranberry vanilla-cinnamon smoothie.
I would make a peanut butter banana smoothie

Loved the idea of the cranberry-vanilla-cinnamon smoothie, but if I were making one today, I’d use up my overripe bananas and add some of my homemade jam — blackberry, perhaps.
i would make a strawberry & Kiwi smoothie with a touch of nutmeg and cinnamon added to the protein powder for taste!!
I would make a pumpkin smoothie! Organic canned pumpkin, a few dates, vanilla yogurt, cinnamon, nutmeg and rice milk blended into the perfect upstate NY fall smoothie! Delicious.
i have been wanting to experiment with healthy smoothies for breakfast… maybe with oats, sunbutter, and yogurt? but lets be honest. the first thing i would do with this blender is make myself a holiday milkshake.

OMG…..I sure could use one of these. I haven’t had the opportunity to have a smoothie, as I do not have a blender. I see so many great recipes, but am unable to try them. I think I’d like to try one with fresh strawberries or blueberries first. keeping my fingers crossed :)

Pumpkin pie smoothie
We make smoothies ALL the time! I think its a great way to get more fruit/milk and even a few veggies in the kids. Your cranberry/vanilla/cinnamon recipe looks great! Not like anything we’ve done before. I think I would probably sub the white sugar for a less processed choice in our case, like honey, maple syrup or coconut sugar, since all those have trace minerals. Other than that, we are so on it!
I’d love to try a fresh cranberry smoothie for the holidays.
It would be a strawberry smoothie around here, so good!

Probably something with strawberries and mango even though they are no longer in season but that is what frozen fruits are for.

Where to start? How about a holiday smoothie with pumpkin, nutmeg, cinnamon, kale, and banana. I’ll go throw a pumpkin in the oven and wait for my blenders to arrive! Great suggestions in these comments.
PB Choc protein Smoothie:-)
My husband and kids rely on the smoothies I make! They are our kickstart to the day. I typically make a smoothie with whatever fruit we have-be it frozen or fresh, add some milk and spinach and voila! This would be a fabulous addition to my kitchen. Certainly going to try the Cranberry Cinnamon smoothie of yours!
Strawberry and blueberry with cinnamon
Definitely thus cranberry vanilla cinnamon smoothie…my bullet just can’t handle it.
I would love to make the cranberry cinnamon smoothie. In the summer I love smoothies with pineapple, raspberries, strawberries, kiwi and spinach. This blender would make it easier for me to make them before I leave for work. Thank you for having the contest. I found this smoothie post on pinterest.

ICE Cream! yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Avocado-coconut ice cream (adapted from Absolutely Avocadoes, by Gabi Dalkin)
Ingredients:
2 Haas avocadoes
1 (14-ounce) can coconut milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon lime zest
1/2 cup coconut chips
Method:
Cut each avocado in half lengthwise, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh into a blender or food processor. Add the coconut milk, heavy cream, and sugar. Blend on low until completely smooth, about 2 minutes. Stir in the lime juice and zest.
Transfer the mixture to an ice cream machine, and churn according to the manufacturer’s directions. Cover and freeze for at least 2 hours before serving, so the ice cream can become more firm.
Meanwhile, add the coconut flakes to a dry skillet heated to medium. Cook the coconut while frequently stirring until the edges begin to turn brown, about 2 minutes. (Keep a close eye on the coconut, as you don’t want it to burn.) Remove immediately from the heat. Allow it to cool and then sprinkle over the ice cream for serving.
Strawberry-banana!
I have all kinds of frozen fruits in my freezer – I’d start with some pitted cherries, and blueberries and maybe some strawberries.

I would make a strawberry banana smoothie.
I will make banana and milk shake
Probably something simple like strawberry yogurt and banana :-)
For starters, I would make a mango lassi in the main blender as a treat for my girlfriend. Probably go with slightly healthier options in the individual size mixer. Kale, apple, maybe a little banana and honey to stave off the winter lulls.
The real goal is to use some of the fresh coco pods I have from a local research greenhouse. I am growing a few trees myself and want to use the fresh roasted seeds that are extra with my cinnamon tree to make the ultimate chocolate concoctions. Too many ideas to list them all here and a lot of pure experimentation to be done.
Always loved the blog but never posted. Thanks for years of great ideas and a continued effort to keep us all cooking.

Love green and fruit smoothies!
I love Strawberries and bananas smoothies♥
I love smoothies. Make them often. Makeup my own versions as whatever I have on hand.
Yogurt, almond milk, frozen bananas, frozen blueberries, etc.
When I’m making juice, a little celery does wonders to apple juice. For potlucks I often blend (or simply mash) bananas and mix in real yogurt and any kind of ‘berry’ I have in the freezer–blueberries, or the tiny persimmons from the only tree I planted that made it (Ashland, Oregon). I never have any trouble eating the rest, myself, if there is any left. But I never thought of this as a smoothie! Why not? Frozen blueberries with bananas and unsweetened yogurt–the banana will make anything sweet! As far as I’m concerned, the fewer ingredients, the better. Kindler
I have never really done smoothies as it always seemed to be too much trouble. But I would love to start with a proper machine and the just posted cranberry vanilla cinnamon smoothie. I have frozen cranberries in my freezer!
Kayle Carrot Orange & chia seed smoothie
