Typically with recipes, the less ingredients the better to me. I am much more likely to try it. There is something about smoothies though, that we just keep throwing fruits and vegetables into the Vitamix. A lot of times I am trying to mask the taste of a vegetable. Here is a smoothie that JSarr fabricated, that, for us, doesn’t have many ingredients. This is the smoothie JSarr keeps coming back to. It’s probably his favorite since we have purchased our Vitamix.
Ingredients
- 3 oranges
- 2 cups frozen strawberries
- 1 large apple
- 1 banana
- 1 small tomato
- 1/4 cup plain yogurt, Greek is fine (try coconut yogurt or milk for vegan)
- 1 cup apple juice
- 1 T flaxseed oil, optional
Instructions
- Blend all ingredients until thoroughly blended.
- Serve immediately.
The Verdict: It’s so smooth, and you can’t tell there is a tomato. My Ellie girl, who at times can be particular about her smoothies, is quoted as saying, ” I LOVE THIS SMOOTHIE SO MUCH I WANT TO EAT IT EVERYDAY!” ‘nough said.

This smoothie looks delicious! Love that it has a tomato “snuck” in it. Would be a way to get my kids to “eat” tomatoes. Have a great day! I found you on Everyday Mom’s Meals
We love sneaking in veggies to our fruit smoothies, especially because you can’t taste them if you get the right combinations. That’s what I am always after.
This looks amazing! I love Strawberry Daiquiris and am always looking for ways to eat more fruit and veggies. Now I just have to make this without my husband knowing what I put in it! Thanks!
Thanks for stopping by! We love incorporating fresh food in our smoothies!
This would be great for my fussy eater! Thanks for linking up at Breakfast Ideas Mondays!
We love hiding veggies in our fruit smoothies! Thanks for visiting!
Are the oranges juiced or whole? I assume they are peeled.
Yep, they are peeled, and we just throw the whole orange in. Thanks for visiting, Chara!
Gorgeous color and it sounds delicious too.
If you haven’t already, I’d love for you to check out my CCC entry: Mango Melon Banana & Chia Smoothie.
