There is so much great information out there!  I just made this one last night and it was SO good, you will want a second one!

Cinnamon Roll Smoothie

1 cup almond milk (I used unsweetened Blue Diamond)

2 tablespoons vanilla protein powder

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

4 teaspoons sweetener (I used maybe a teaspoon of honey.  I think it would be fine without any).

1 teaspoon flaxmeal

1 cup ice

Pour all ingredients in blender adding ice last.  Blend on high for 30 seconds or until completely blended.

DELICIOUS!!!!!

@Hillman19 One of my go-to smoothie recipes is kale based. I actually don't really like the taste of Kale at all, but it has a very subtle flavor which makes it easy to trick your taste buds. Click here for the recipe.

Also, through trial and error, here's what I've found to be successful:

-Buy some frozen ingredients. Frozen fruit lasts longer than whole fruit and it eliminates the need to add ice. It can also be a lot cheaper. Most of the smoothies that I make have a combination of both frozen and unfrozen fruits.

-If you like a thicker smoothie, add peanut/almond butter and add a frozen banana. **Pro tip: frozen bananas also make it easy to make granola bowls. I've experimented with making acai bowls at home, and adding two frozen bananas has yielded the best results.

-I like to add a spoonful of chia seeds in almost every smoothie I make, they are nutrient dense and full of fiber.

-I also like to add fruit that has naturally strong flavors like pineapple or mangoes which makes it easy to to add veggies that I don't like to eat raw like spinach.

-I've also heard that cooked oatmeal can improve smoothie texture, but I personally have not tried it.

@LadyMalpica Nice! Do you use freshly brewed coffee or iced coffee for this recipe?

The only coffee I've put in a blender before was experimenting with homemade Bulletproof coffee (freshly brewed coffee + 1 table spoon of irish butter + a little bit of coconut oil).

As a heads up, I've also moved your post into this thread.
