I'm not sure the kiwi option was the best choice - loads of seeds, including the inevitable one stuck in my teeth for hours after. I love smoothies with strawberries. Just strawberry, or strawberry and banana. Must buy strawberries. Any other good fruit smoothie mixes? Dimmi tutto.
Although I eat loads of veggies, I rarely fancy fruit so this is a good way to eat more fruit. I eat loads of tomatoes though, aren't tomatoes fruit? Anyway, I think we'll do some veg pureè with the new gadget and try doing a zabaglione too. I've never had zabaglione but I'd like to try it. It sounds like a Rocky Balboa kind of dessert with raw eggs and sugar being the main ingredient.

Delina could be useful to have a "Top 10 recipes" list!
I will post some recipes..
Forest fruits smoothies are nice... You know, blackberries, raspberries, redcurrants, blackcurrants etc.
minipimmer has no meaning neither in italian...i thought i was some form of english slang!
I have one of those minipimmer things too. I use it a lot - for creamed soups, pesto, hummus and also smoothies. Yum.
Max, my number one I think would be strawberry and banana. I've just got back from the supermarket with strawberries in hand.
Becs, forest fruits sounds like a great idea. Right up my street.
Pola, maybe it's a German word? Or maybe Braun made it up? But when shopping for my minipimer I noticed that other brands were called minipimer too.
Kataroma, fab ideas! I'll be experimenting.
Strawberry and banana smoothies sound real good! Enjoy your minipimmer!
Delina becomes Delia? Mmmm, smoothie sounds wonderful right now. :)
Banana and orange is a delicious combo too, my favorite! Use frozen strawberries (as well as fresh)instead of ice. Try adding frozen yogurt or sherbet too. You can also add pineapple to the banana/orange smoothie for a bit of a tropical taste. I second the forest fruits smoothie!
I use a super heavy duty blender here in the US.
Enjoy!
The Smoothie Queen
J.doe yeah strawberry and banana is yum.
Thanks for the great tips Smoothie Queen. I can see why you are called the Smoothie Queen :)
Marmite, I might have to change my name to Delia if I become too much of a pro with the ol' minipimer - watch this space.
I love mango smoothies -
water, yogurt, mango, nutmeg - simple and delicious.
Another good one-
Fig or date smoothies
figs or dates, almond milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon
I love me a good smoothie!
I gave up on my minipimer as whatever I did, I seemed to always end up with half the ingredients stuck to the ceiling! What's the knack?
blueberries make a great smoothie, and are so good for you! I like the frutto di bosco with banana, straw e banana, or blueberries and banana. I also like to add a spoon of vanilla yogurt. I just started using soy milk, I thought I would try it, and in a smoothie you can not tell the difference. it was delicious! I still have yet to actually *drink* plain soy milk...
does anyone know where I may purchase almond milk in Naples?
