what kind of things am i supposed to put into a smoothie? i mean i'm guessing i could put random foods in it but then it would just take like crap, right? i don't even know were to start
if anyone could post their high calorie smoothies that would be helpful, looking for 700 calorie +
thanks
PB,
FF milk,
banana
whey
If you're looking for something calorically dense,
Whole Milk
Peanut Butter
Banana
Protein powder
Could get to 6-900 calories pretty quickly...

Shakes and smoothies are very versatile. Oatmeal, protein powder, cottage cheese, peanut butter, yogurt, fruit, juice, milk. Just add stuff you like.
Here's my breakfast shake:
Strawberries: 1 cup, sometimes a bit more ~50 cals
One whole banana ~100 cals
Oats: 1 cup, I use a coffee grinder to make it easier to drink ~300
Milk: 3 cups ~300
Banana Muscle Milk: 1 scoop ~150
Whey Vanilla: 1 scoop ~130
So it ends up being somewhere around 1030 calories in the shake.
Usually have 1/2 to 1 cup of oats with it. It tastes pretty good and is a good way to start the day.
man thanks so much, great help
1/4 cup cottage cheese
1/2 cup strawberries
1/2 cup blueberries
1/2 cup pineapple
12oz can of tuna or chicken
3/4 cup of olive oil (EXTRA LIGHT or it'll taste like ****).
Fill with fruit juice
Blend
CONSUME!

If I'm trying to get a ton of calories in on a really busy day I make.
2 scoops whey
250g egg whites
250g skim milk
120g oats
45g natty PB
1 large banana
1379 cal
118g protein
134g carb
42g fat
Put it all in the blender pour into a shaker cup and you got enough food for half the day.
I make a 3000 calorie shake with 1 cup of oats,3 tbs of peanut butter,1 cup of ice cream,1 large banana,1 ensure plus (350 calories), 4 scoops of whey protein,4 scoops of re-built mass gainer,2 tbs of olive oil,2 tbs of honey and 1 1/2 of milk.I split this up 3x a day and it works great.I still eat an additional 1500 calories of food split up 5 times through the day.

Even split up that sounds like one thick shake lol but worth it

Actually it's no thicker than a milkshake,Just get your self a decent blender.And do not blend all at once.Tastes pretty good.
I agree with a lot of the above posts.
Mine would be something like:
1 cup dairy or soy milk
1 sliced banana
1 cup of oats
rest of cals from peanut butter
Should sit you between 700 to 1000 depending on peanut butter usage.
You can also use honey to increase the cals, if that is what you are looking for. I make my shake with skim milk, banana, chocolate whey, & honey, and it is delicious. I'm not looking for a high calorie smoothie, but if I were, I'd use whole milk and add natty pb and maybe some fudge or something to make it taste really fantastic. You can get that up to 1000 cals easy.
When the BF was having some issues eating and not being able to keep a whole lot down I made a shake with ice cream (BnJ PB cup), a weight gainer pp, PB, and a banana. Tasted like money and was easily 1k cals.
Macro-wise, no idea..... but lots of cals and lots of yumminess.
Made a shake yesterday and added a whole banana, milk, 1 and half scoop choco whey, 4 tbps pb, 1 tbs honey, 1/2 cup of oats. Was not terrible but was a super strong banana aftertaste
What is does a cup weigh? Or what size Is it?
[QUOTE=philewis;635742103]What is does a cup weigh? Or what size Is it?[/QUOTE]
that's what i'm saying, i have tiny cups and huge cups, kinda annoys me when people say that lol... best to get a weighing scale
and i am currently formulating a shake out of all these suggestions, no idea how it's going to taste but f*ck it.. thanks so much though
I mean an actually half a cup as in the measurement.

Do almond butter, spinach, beets, raspberries, Greek yogurt ,wheat germ, whey powder,and coconut milk, easy over a 1000 if you portion everything good for staying clean with antioxidants, vitamins minerals carbs to keep you full and high calories healthy size!!
