5.0 out of 5 stars Her recipes are original!, August 1, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Super Smoothies!: Taste the Nectar of Life: Fruit, Vegetable, Nut, Seed, Grain, Herb, Spice Enriched Blender Beverages! (Paperback)

I've had the pleasure of tasting almost every recipe in this book, and,-without a doubt, they are the most original I've sampled. There are other smoothie books out there, but they are mostly the yogurt, juice, banana and ice cube variety. This author turns smoothie making into an art. She relies upon seasonal produce to make both fruit and vegetable smoothies. You'd never know they didn't have dairy, because they are so creamy and luscious tasting. Also, her smoothies may be served chilled or warmed for seasonal enjoyment. I've served the smoothie recipes to my neighbors (kids as young as two years old), as well as friends (of all ages) who stop by the house. Another highlight of this book is the author's engaging message about health and healing. She shares her personal passion for healing our bodies and the earth. Makes a great gift! Don't confuse her book with another book with same title. Candia Cole's book is the 'original' book,- "Super Smoothies": Taste The Nectar Of Life!

I am NOT a health freak,by any stretch of the imagination,however,my lady friend and I came across this book and have been trying its different "SMOOTHIES", as they are called. Great summer drinks that we will enjoy all YEAR AROUND! One of our favorites is the PINAPPLE AVOCADO PARADISE drink,easy to make...This book should be kept next to your blender! Great treats for your company/neighborhood BBQ's...TRY IT!
