Reader Reviews
My situation: I received a brand new blender and I had very few good recipes. My first smoothie book was decent, it was Super Smoothies: 50 Recipes for Health and Energy ISBN 081182540X. I was a little disappointed with this book. I knew from the title it would only have 50 recipes, but the money I was paying for this book really wasn't going towards recipes, but to the fancy design of the book and tons of pictures of the smoothies. I decided for my second smoothie book, I was doing away with the pictures and going for as many recipes as possible. When I stumbled across this book for about half the price and FIFTEEN TIMES the number of recipes (including shakes and frappes), I was in heaven. All recipes include complete nutritional analysis (so you know how good or bad it is for you!). Drinks are divided into alphabetical listings. Here are a few samples of the drinks in this book: Pineapple-Mint Sour, Fuzzy Pink Splash, Kiwi Quencher, and Chocolate-Raspberry Shake. With some recipes books, I worry that I'll never make a good portion of the recipes within. With this book and 750 recipes, I know I'll never get to that point...
