Product Review of Blender Boyz Smoothies (As Seen On Dragons’ Den)

February 28, 2017 by Suzie the Foodie 3 Comments

With my review of Blender Boyz’ Iced Capps complete, it was time to move on to their single serving smoothie mixes. First was their strawberry banana smoothie. Once again you needed 1 cup of ice but this time you could add water, milk, cream, yogurt or soy milk to the drink. I decided to go […]

September 26, 2013 by Suzie the Foodie 3 Comments

When KitchenAid sent me their Diamond Blender they also included some recipes and I was so curious about the one for a green smoothie. In my post Green Smoothie? Not for this foodie! I express my confusion and frustration with the green smoothie movement. Why did I choose this recipe to review? Because there is no […]

Watch me use the KitchenAid Diamond Blender for the first time in my kitchen. I make one of my favourite smoothies: Very Berry. Yum! Yes, I am wearing a Wonder Woman t-shirt because this video is totally legit. Reg and I had just been out doing some weeding and came in around dinner time to […]

Product Testing: Minute Maid Peach & Peach Punch

July 30, 2012 by Suzie the Foodie 3 Comments

When I read in a press release that said Minute Maid Peach was made with real peach juice, I had to check it out. Most peach “drinks” have no real peaches in them at all. A juice made with peach puree? I was interested. Peach is one of our favourite flavours but it is always so bloody […]

The Green Smoothie? Not for this foodie!

Now that is a green smoothie: Lip Smackin’ Lime Smoothie made with lime Jello Green smoothies seem to be all the rage these days. Making a normal fruit smoothie and throwing in some kale, swiss chard, spinach, etc. I was totally dubious and resistant. Still, I was curious. One week each night I added a different […]

Perfecting My Banana Mango Smoothie

July 20, 2010 by Suzie the Foodie 5 Comments

Last year I came up with this recipe for my Banana Mango Smoothie. I can not leave a recipe alone so I tweaked it and made some changes! I am not really into super sweet stuff so what was missing from this mango to make it perfect was a little sourness from some fresh lemon […]

Lip Smackin’ Lime Smoothie

Remember the Shamrock Shake? I am not sure those are even around anymore. My sister Shannon used to love them because they were minty. For spring’s approach this weekend I wanted to make a green smoothie. I am not a fan of mint and I know some people make green smoothies with veggies but not […]

What to do with a flavourless watermelon?

September 3, 2009 by Suzie the Foodie 5 Comments

Considering most of the time I bring my groceries home on my back and in my sore hands, it is very rare that I get to indulge in purchasing watermelon. There is nothing more refreshing than attacking a juicy piece of watermelon on a hot summer’s day. Sadly, this watermelon had zero flavour! Instead of […]
