My favorite Smoothie book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This book is full of healthy smoothies. If you stick to the recommended serving size ("Small" in a Smoothie bar setting), they're only about 100-120 calories each. I generally drink a "double", but that still keeps them all under 250 calories. Once you've tried a dozen or so, you get the feel of ingredients and quantities on your own. A previous reviewer didn't like the idea of Splenda being added to some recipes, or the occasional use of Diet Mountain Dew. Splenda is an artificial sweetener derived from sugar and has passed every test for safety in every country it has been introduced. As for Diet Mountain Dew, it has no caffeine west of the Mississippi River where this author lives. East of the Mississippi, I would substitute a Diet Sprite or Fresca-type soda. Generally, the amount of this soda is 2 to 4 ounces, so I don't see there's anything to be squeamish about anyway. I have several smoothie books and find a far greater satisfaction rate with these recipes than any other.
