Hey guys, something a little different this week! We’re having a Smoothie Off against Gigi at GigiEatsCelebrities.com, and as the name might imply, it’s one smoothie versus another. Facing off. Ready to be drunk for its cause. As many of us are, I’m sure.
The Smoothie Off rules are simple too. Each team makes a smoothie in any way they want, shares the recipe and waits for the votes to come in. It’s HurryTheFoodUp.com against GigiEatsCelebrities.com.

NOTES
Nutrition
This is Gigi’s attempt. Although it’s a very good smoothie, it’s clearly no winner. Click here to have a look anyway.
Recipe 2 – The High Protein Cottage Cheese Strawberry Smoothie
This beautiful, mouth-watering treat is brought to you by yours truly. A classic winning combination of juicy strawberries and sweet banana make this all-conquering smoothie impossible to look past. We love our food (drink?) delicious and nutritious, and this is a nutrient powerhouse.
Ingredients
- 1 banana
- 1 cup strawberries, fresh (frozen is fine too; you can use any berries you happen to have around)
- 1 cup low fat coconut milk *
- 1 cup low fat cottage cheese *
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
Instructions
- One of the joys and reasons for the ever-lasting popularity of smoothies lies in the simplicity of it all.
- Just throw all the ingredients into a blender (peel the banana first ;)) and press the magic button.
- If smoothie is too thick, add some water. If it’s how you like it, serve!
Well yours is more traditional, so I’d go for yours! I don’t do cottage cheese, so I’d leave that out. But I hate cauliflower so I’d have to choose yours! Both are very creative though!
One day I’ll bake a banana cauliflower cake for you 🙂
Haha! A smoothie off! What a clever idea. I have to say that the Caulicolkin smoothie looks very delicious. I have never tried putting cauliflower in my smoothies. This is a must try for me.
Both sound like a breakfast that I’d love to wake up to.
really?? 😀
I’d go just for our version for breakie 😀
