Who accompanies the 7-Day Kickstart?

We, Svenja & Carla from GrüneSmoothies.de, accompany you through the 7-Day Kickstart. Together we have mixed over 5000 (!) liters of Green Smoothies in the past 5 years. Besides our families, we have also taught many people how to prepare Green Smoothies in our workshops or during our Detox cleanse. We love developing new recipes for Green Smoothies as well as sharing our enthusiasm for this little nutritional miracle with others. Whether in our workshops or during the 7-Day Kickstart. The most important criterion for us is that the green smoothie is tasty - preferably as a healthy breakfast.

Do I need a high-performance blender for the 7-Day Kickstart?

During the Kickstart you recive 7 simple Green Smoothie recipes with very different ingredients. Some of them include very fibrous leafy greens, which can only be blended to a creamy fineness with a more powerful high-speed blender. If you don't have a high-speed blender at home, you can simply replace these ingredients with more easily to process leafy greens like baby spinach or lamb's lettuce.

We look forward to guiding you through your first green smoothie steps!

Carla from GrueneSmoothies.com

I fell in love with the first sip. In 2010 a friend of mine served me my first green smoothie. Since then, green smoothies are my absolute favorite breakfast. Quickly prepared, I start my day healthy, delicious and well nourished. I carry the feeling of this delicious healthy breakfast with me all day long - all the way through to the evening.
Nice side effect: Without renunciation or nutritional dogma, green smoothies regulate my desire for coffee, chocolate and all the other temptations.

Among other things, Carla gives workshops for beginners and also is responsible for social media and communication.

Hello Carla,

Well, I have decided to finally look for a way to improve my vegetable and fruit consumption, and I have found a solution through smoothies. When searching for recipes, one finds you very quickly, and I am grateful for the many tips and recipes that have made it easier for me to get started. I really enjoy the intense vegetable smoothies with, for example, celery, and I also find those with a hint of ginger very tasty. Unfortunately, I have not yet managed to excite my two children. Careful tasting so far has led to rejection. Do you have any tips? The girls are 12 and 13 years old...

Carla von GrüneSmoothies.de
Hello Heiner,

Thank you very much for your comment. We are delighted that we were able to accompany you on your journey into the world of smoothies.

Introducing children to smoothies is always good when they can choose the ingredients themselves and ideally also mix their own smoothies. At least that's been our experience. If they don't like pure vegetable/fruit smoothies, you could maybe try to first get them excited about fruit smoothies and attempt to mix in just a little bit of leafy greens.

Best of luck with that and many greetings,
Carla

I have ventured into completely new territory and am simply thrilled! With my new high-speed blender from Kitchenaid (I am a fan of these devices and already own several), the preparation works great! Everything turns out nice and creamy and I really enjoy your recipes. Since I tend to stick to recipes and am not very adventurous when it comes to experimenting, I find it difficult to try something new. Is there a recipe that includes kohlrabi leaves, or can I substitute them with something like celery stalks? I really enjoy the taste of "Sweetheart," for example!
Thank you for all the great information, I look forward to every additional tip!
6/14/2024
Carla von GrüneSmoothies.de
Hello Gaby,

thank you very much for the lovely feedback on our 7-Day Kickstart. We're delighted to hear that! For Sweatheart, celery is the standout ingredient. You could possibly add a few kohlrabi leaves and reduce the amount of celery. Kohlrabi leaves are a milder ingredient that actually goes well in any green smoothie.

Best regards,
Carla

Exciting and very useful information, delivered in perfect small doses for a beginner :0)
The "basic ingredients list" is manageable - most items are already in the house, assuming one tends to eat more veggies and salads
Surely, smoothies will be a frequent feature on my menu going forward:o)
Thank you very much for the inspiration!

Hello dear GreenSmoothies team,
thank you very much for the 7-Day Kickstart - for me, all very good information. In the future, I will definitely replace one or two meals with a healthy smoothie. The information was really helpful and good, as I have never dealt with smoothies before.
Thank you for that!

I drink smoothies instead of lunch and dinner every other day. I don't stick to recipes, but use what I can find in the store. Mostly organic products - mostly green with fruits like berries and ripe bananas added. Today, my glass contained chard, kale, and wild garlic. Along with a beetroot juice. That was my daily drink, which even tastes good. Regards, Hartmut.

Hello dear Green Smoothies team,

unfortunately, I haven't been able to try out the current recipes yet, as I currently have limited capacity and thought that I could choose the start of the week after registration. However, every day I make my green smoothie in the morning with my Vitamix blender that I got for Christmas, and I am absolutely thrilled. I also use spinach, kale, celery, parsley, carrot greens, nettle, ground elder, chickweed, lamb's lettuce, corn salad, cauliflower, various lettuces, and pear, apples, persimmons, blueberries or pineapple alternately. I haven't been able to download the recipes as a PDF yet, so that I can also implement your great ideas.
You're doing a great job. Thank you.

Carla von GrüneSmoothies.de
Thank you very much for your comment and the lovely feedback on the 7-Day Kickstart. As you mentioned, you can also try out the recipes later. It's even better to just get started and develop your own smoothie creations.
All the best to you and enjoy your green creations!

Dear Green Smoothies Team,
the 7-Day Kickstart was absolutely enriching and inspiring for me - a super all-round info package on everything that is green and does good. Thank you so much! Have been making green smoothies for myself for a while now, but the topic had fallen asleep a bit and has been reawakened. I also like your site overall, totally informative and nicely laid out with great photos that whet your appetite for healthy things. I ordered an Omega Slow Juicer from you last year and have used it almost exclusively for celery juice. I have looked in your juicer recipes and want to try me here. Let the slow juicer show what else it can do. First I will test the fennel juice with orange and cayenne pepper and the carrot juice, things are already purchased. Glad that I am newly inspired at the beginning of the year and start with your green ideas :-)

Carla von GrüneSmoothies.de
Dear Anke,

what a nice feedback to our 7-Day Kickstart! Thank you very much - we are very happy to have inspired you.
The fennel juice with orange and cayenne is one of my absolute favorite recipes. I'm curious to hear what you think of it.
Love and all the best,
Carla

Hello, dear GrueneSmoothies team, thank you for the 7-Day Kickstart and the support so far. I have had my Vitamix for about 4 weeks now, and I have also tried this and that of your recipes. It all tasted good, but I did not really "get going". That will now be different. Just today's information is very interesting and helpful. Starting tomorrow, the green smoothie will be my breakfast. I am already looking forward to it as well as to the 3rd day of the Kickstart :-)
Best regards from Leipzig, Anita

Thank you so much for the valuable input on smoothies this past week. I'm really excited about how well I've been doing on the days where I've already started with green smoothie in the morning. A beautiful, light but also amazingly lasting energy that has invigorated me better than my porridge that I love so much. This allows me to positively change my eating rhythm and my lunch ends up in the midday. It's super fun to prepare the smoothies and picking the wild herbs in the morning is also a pleasure. I do quite well with my Wartmann blender, only the almond butter has failed me.
Thank you for your tips, they have been helpful and sound throughout.
Best regards
Anja

Carla von GrüneSmoothies.de
Dear Anja,

thank you very much for your detailed comment! How nice that the green smoothies do you so well and the 7-Day Kickstart has provided you with helpful info :)

Making almond butter in the blender sometimes requires a bit more experimentation - we've been there. Especially also when the almonds have different quality or we roasted them too short or too long. Just try again.

Warm regards and all the best for you,
Carla

Hallo ihr lieben,
vielen Dank für die leckeren Rezepte.
Evergreen= alles gut
Sonne im Glas = alles gut
Mamagold = Mangold ersetzt durch Spinat, gefrorene Mango, da blieben beim Mixen gleich die Messer stehen !!!! (Vitamix 750) hab dann manuell probiert, bis es wieder ging. Kann das dem Gerät schaden?? Dachte, man kann auch Eis so herstellen.
Erdbeermund= alles gut, hab aber diesmal frische Erdbeeren verwendet, keine gefrorenen.
Sweetheart= alles gut
Violetta= schmeckte fade, nur nach Banane, farblich nicht so wie auf dem Foto nur leicht violett. Stimmt die Mengenangabe 80g. Heidelbeeren? hab frische verwendet. Mir hats Spaß gemacht und werde mit die Rezepte variieren, hab nicht immer alles parat. Liebe Grüße Jürging
3/16/2022
Carla von GrüneSmoothies.de
Hello Jürging,

Thank you for the detailed recipe feedback.
The Vitamix Pro 750 should not have any issues with blending frozen mango - perhaps next time, try thawing it briefly. As you mentioned, you can also use it to make nice cream.
If you found the "Violette" smoothie a bit bland, simply add more blueberries.

All the best to you,
Carla

Thank you for the information about smoothies. I have learned a lot. It is new territory for me, and I will gradually explore it for myself. Some of the smoothies took some getting used to. But according to the podcast, your beginnings were also like that.

Carla von GrüneSmoothies.de
Dear Britta,

Thank you for your feedback on the Kickstart. It's great to hear that you participated. It's completely normal to occasionally make mistakes, especially in the beginning. The ripeness of the fruits is also crucial, as it determines the drinkability of the green smoothies. Just greens and water wouldn't be very convincing :)

If you have any questions about the preparation, feel free to reach out at any time.

Best regards,
Carla

Hello dear ones!

At the moment, I'm only eating your recipes. The day starts with celery juice, and then I continue with all sorts of smoothies. I'm a diabetic, and it's working great for me. I also eat a lot of salads and vegetables. I have also done the detox cleanse twice. I'm thrilled! Keep up the great work, thank you for the amazing recipes.

Lots of love,

Since we purchased the Bianco Di Puro+ from you and started following your nice introductory program with the very useful tips, we have been on the green smoothie journey for about 3 months. It tastes delicious every time and is satisfying without feeling heavy, and we have actually noticed some positive changes, such as our skin becoming much more beautiful and smoother. Even though we already had a fairly healthy diet before, it is definitely noticeable! Thanks to the simple rules you presented, it is easy to create tasty green smoothies at any time, but sometimes a composition turns out exceptionally well. And today was such a moment when my husband handed me a bowl of a light green, gently citrus-mint scented drink: sunny, delicately refreshing notes danced playfully on the tongue, embedded in a gentle melody that, well, I believe captures the longing for summer best. After a hot day, we enjoy the last golden rays of the sun in the coolness of the evening, sparkling in the small waves that play around our little rocking boat. And somewhere in the distance, the tangent universe where it's January and 3 degrees quietly collapses. ;)

Here is the recipe (per person) for our "summer evening":

1/2 peeled grapefruit
1 banana
1/2 lime: the juice and a small piece of the peel
1 sprig of mint, leaves only
3 to 4 large kohlrabi leaves, stems removed
about 3 to 4 ice cubes (to keep the mixture cool)
about 150 ml water

Roughly chop the soft fruits and place them in the container, add the lime, then the mint leaves and the slightly torn kohlrabi leaves. Add the ice cubes and water. Blend briefly on a lower setting, just enough to catch and roughly crush the ice cubes with the blades. Then blend on the highest setting for about 1 minute. With the Bianco Di Puro+, we use the green smoothie program, which has the advantage of ending automatically so we don't have to monitor the blending process. Tip: To prevent the ice cubes from becoming too large during blending, only fill the compartments in the ice cube tray halfway with water. Special tip: We use the vacuum pump from Bianco, which removes the air from the container, reducing the oxygen exposure during blending. It's absolutely not necessary since the blending process is already short and the smoothie is consumed immediately, but we swear by it and find the texture even more pleasant.
