Make Your Own Velvetyluscious Low Calorie Smoothies This Summer
Smoothies can have the calories of little dinner salads without the dressing
, but with the texture of double milkshakes. Make one yourself. It's easy.
You do not need milk or soy products to make a smoothie look luscious. The secret lies in the use of shaved ice. The texture when shaved ice blends with other ingredients is restaurant-smooth.
Your smoothie can be as thick as you like, if you make use of one of the Margaritaville frozen concoction machines for your smoothies maker. These amazing appliances are able to make a range of frozen slush beverages automatically, but all four kinds have a "perfect-it-yourself" manual alternative to get just the consistency you prefer. The only constant is their extraordinary smoothness--no ice chunks, no watery voids such as those you often get with conventional blenders. (If you can't afford one, you could well make use of an independent ice shaver and your blender with a little extra work.)
The original smoothies are still the lowest calorie ones. In Brazil, just soft fruits like bananas, guavas, papayas, and mangoes were blended with shaved ice. No sugars need apply. Smoothies are about half ice; for that reason, they have half the calories of an equal quantity of juice. On a hot day, they can be surprisingly more refreshing, too!
In the USA today, a mixture of fruits is more common--add strawberries and pineapple to the previous listing. Protein powders and additional nutritional supplements, too, can be included to up the nutritional value without much effect on the calorie count. Sugars are seldom required, but you can use any of the sugar-substitutes, if required, as no heat occurs. Again, you will certainly have half the calories of a juice beverage of the identical volume, due to the oh-so-smooth-and-tasty ice.
Of course, fruits themselves have greater calorie counts than the majority of veggies. But, you say, you can't just drop some celery in your Margaritaville frozen concoction machines. You're right. Hard fruits like apples, pears, and the seedy berries must be juiced, as do carrots, sweet potatoes/yams, and those green and leafy veggies like spinach and wheatgrass.
You are able to lower the calorie count while you grow the nutrition by combining veggies with fruits. Juicing for weight loss is an excellent concept and twice as effective when the fresh juices are mixed in a smoothie maker like the Bahamas, Key West, Fiji, or Tahiti models of Margaritaville frozen concoction machines. Your heart will certainly fall for the smooth creamy texture, but your body will not have to wear added calories under its sleeves and belt lines.
Give this scrumptious fruit and vegetable smoothie a go. It is rich in vitamins A and C, and its color alone may make your morning.
Pineapple-Orange Rapture. Peel and section 4 oranges. Place with 2 cups pineapple, and 1 peeled cut-up sweet potato in your juicer. Place the resulting juice in your smoothie maker pitcher. Add ice to the hopper. Select "smoothie" and press "GO" to get this yummy, sun-kissed drink.
Have some fun. Make your very own rich, mouth watering reduced calorie smoothies.
