Vegan Smoothie Recipes

Smoothies are a great way to cool off in summer and so good for you too.

They are also an excellent way to get some fruit and veges into fussy kids.

You are really only limited by your imagination.

I mentioned in a previous post, 10 Tips To Help You Go Vegan, a really nice smoothie that my daughter makes. She just puts soy milk, a banana, a big spoonful of vegan chocolate spread and a few Oreo biscuits into the blender.

Okay? so it?s a little indulgent, with the chocolate spread and Oreos, maybe not an everyday smoothie. But it?s a really tasty way to have healthy soy milk and bananas. Bananas are one of the few foods that I don?t really like, I just can?t eat them on their own. But I LOVE this smoothie. Bananas are a great fruit, full of potassium.

I?ve recently found a few other great smoothie recipes, that are especially great for active growing children? and big kids too!

Vegan Smoothie Recipes :

No Time For Pancakes Smoothie

What You Need:

1 banana, cut into chunks
4 strawberries, stemmed and cut into chunks
8 oz. soy milk
1 tbsp almond butter
2 tsp maple syrup

How to Make It:

Place the banana and strawberry chunks into the blender.
Slowly pour in the soy milk.
Add the almond butter and maple syrup.
Blend until very smooth.

Some mornings there is just no time to make those beloved pancakes.
Give the kids one of these and they will enjoy it just as much.
Try other types of fruit for a little change.

Pick Me up Smoothie

What You Need:

2 bananas, peeled and cut in chunks
2 peaches, peeled, pitted and cut in chunks
1 (8 oz) can crushed pineapple, drained
1 cup of soy milk

How to Make It:

Place all the ingredients into the blender in the order they are listed. Blend until mixture is smooth.
Serve cold.

This smoothie is great for hungry kids, as an after school snack. For a little added sweetness pour a small amount of the pineapple juice in with the other ingredients.

Peanut Butter and Banana Chocolate Smoothie

What You Need:

1 cup chocolate flavored soy milk, very cold
1 banana, peeled and cut into pieces
2 tbsp creamy peanut butter
2 ice cubes, crushed

How to Make It:

Place the milk into the blender.
Add the banana and peanut butter.
Carefully place the crushed ice into the blender.
Blend until smooth.
Drink immediately.

By leaving out the banana you can have a Reese cup smoothie.
Kids enjoy both types of this drink and will be asking for it over and over again.

Apples and Oatmeal Breakfast Smoothie

What You Need:

2 cups of soy milk
1 apple, peeled, cored and diced
? cup raisins
? cup instant oatmeal
1 tbsp peanut butter

How to Make It:

This makes a great breakfast drink for children. It tastes like an old fashion
oatmeal cookie with a touch of peanut butter. The raisins are optional.
