Hello -- Can I drink this recipe as is or do I have to set it up for my body type? I'm at Type A.

Do I just pour in 4 oz of egg whites? Do I leave the amounts of fruit the same?

Thank

Neither your question nor your profile actually say this, but are you male? (If so, would you mind putting something in your profile which tells us this, 'cause it does affect the answers to some question. Just putting in your waist size alerts us that you're not female.)

I'm answering this assuming you are male, otherwise you'll have to explain your question. Use ½ cup pasteurized egg white for a male portion and your normal fruit portion.

I have read that you can use a banana as a carb, so to make this a complete meal could I add a banana and how much a half of one or a whole? I would love to make this as a meal on the go without having to worry about an additional carb.

Thanks!

The usual recommendation is that one may on occasion substitute either a small banana or a small apple for ½ cup carb. This switcheroo does not work well for everyone, so be sure to monitor your progress if you opt to try it.

I made one this morning with fresh strawberries, pasteurized egg whites, splenda, ice, water and a touch of vanilla-- tastes like a strawberry julius!

Just one problem, though-- it is REDICULOUSLY frothy! There was so much foam it wouldn't fit into my glass!

Does it help the froth problem to use frozen berries instead? Or powdered egg whites? I don't mind some froth, but my blender made it like crazy!

I'm not convince that the issue is necessarily the ice unless you're dropping in large cubes or pieces, putting everything in the blender at once and whirring the thing until the ice breaks up-- which for some blenders may be a lot of work. Remember, that meringue is nothing more than sweetened, well-beaten egg whites so you may want to avoid excessive blending as much as you can. To obviate the need for extra processing time you may wish to have your ice in small chips and even blend up your fruits and ice before adding in the egg white, or try blending on a lower speed so you you don't end up with The Smoothie That Ate Chicago.

This is my breakfast staple, however this week they seem to be more, well... Clumpy? I am using organic bluberries this time around... Could that be it? I haven't changed anything else!

I would say that 95 per cent of the time I buy berries, they are organic, and no I don't believe that's the issue. I think rather that this last purchase was likely not as fresh as the ones you've gotten previously (maybe organics don't sell as fast where you shop?) and when berries age, they tend to get goopy. Try separating them and adding them little by little when blending if you have more to use up (and watch them for signs of molding, which is the step after goopiness.)

If you don't have pasteurized egg whites is it okay to use raw egg white for this recipe?

Thank you,

Christy

Consumption of raw, unpasteurized eggs (or their whites) is recommended neither by the FDA nor by the AEB (American Egg Board) due to the chance of bacterial infection.

I strongly don't recommend buying a Magic Bullet, I use a Toastmaster Blender that I bought from Wal-Mart. It's a hand blender not a big appliance to clean up. I've bought and returned 3 Magic Bullets and it's either good for a few times, broke after a couple uses or it roughly chops fruit, it doesn't blend. The Toastmaster Blender only costs $21 now and I've had it for 12 years. It's still in excellent shape.
