    What are some good recipes and combinations of stuff to use in smoothies?

    Smoothies are great because apart from the fact that they are so yum and there are endless possible combinations of things to chuck in and experiment with, they are really good for ya and pretty filling.

    some ideas of stuff to play around with...

    coconut milk
    fruit juices
    milk
    ice
    yoghurt/frozen yoghurt
    pineapple
    bananas
    watermellon
    berries
    starfruit
    guava
    pear
    orange
    kiwifruit
    strawberries
    mango
    etc etc etc..
