Are you following @myobsessionist?

If not, how are you keeping up with my latest obsession with green smoothies?! Healthy, tasty, and perhaps is the easiest way to consume a ton of veggies and fruits in one sitting.

Here are some of my creations this week from my Twitter feed:

• 14oz water, 1 avocado, 1 red medium apple, 1.5 cups of pineapple, 1 cup of strawberries, 1 large carrot, 1 medium tomato, 3 cups red leaf lettuce
• 6oz coconut milk, lots of coconut water, 1 avocado, 1 banana, 1 mango, 2 cups arugula, 1.5 cups romaine lettuce
• 6oz water, 2 small apples, 1 banana, 6 medium strawberries, 1 medium carrot, 1 medium tomato, 1 cup watercress nut
• 16oz water, 3 small apples, 2 medium carrots, 3 cups watercress nut
• coconut water, 1 cup papaya, 1 banana, 1.5 cup strawberries, 1 medium carrot, 2 cups red leaf lettuce

Some tips:

1. Avocados, bananas, and mangoes are a great way to improve the creaminess of the smoothie.
2. For your “base fruit”, I find that bananas, apples, and pineapples add the most flavor to mask the taste of your greens (I’m still experimenting to see what fruits work the best).
3. Always add your liquids first, then fruit, and greens last.
4. Generally a 60-40 ratio of fruits to veggies makes a good green smoothie.

Right now most of my time is spent with prep and blending, though I think if I had a powerful blender (like a Blendtec) I could cut my time in half and make smoothies of ultra-smooth consistency. Will keep an eye out for deals on this sucker.
