I don't really have a recipe for you.
By accident, I went to my local wild oats (for a smoothie) and I wanted cucumber simply because I heard it might help with bloating. I asked also for celery and ginger because I had heard these things might help with headaches. I asked what else might be good and spinach was suggested. The taste was okay...not great. What was good though, was that after I drank it, I felt really full and was not hungry until lunch time. For me, this usually only happens when I eat a protein for breakfast. Additionally, I was NOT bloated and may have lost a tiny bit of water weight
I have also made for myself (once in awhile) a vanilla smoothie made from a mix with 10 mgs. of protein. I add to this a little fat free milk, some ice cubes, cinnamon and nutmeg. It is very filling. I had some slight bloating with this..but enjoyed the way it made me feel full for a loooong time and really wasn't that many calories. It is really good when trying to avoid over-eating.
