These 20 healthy ingredients can be added to your smoothies to turn them into meal replacement shakes. I also share my favorite homemade shake recipes that contain these filling ingredients. I lost 56 pounds in a few months by drinking these homemade weight loss shakes.
I am so excited about this post. It’s something I’ve wanted to share for years as I’ve lost 56 pounds myself using homemade weight loss shakes which is what I’m about to share with you in this post.
If you are new to my website I’ll give you a bit of background. The name, Green Thickie means a filling meal replacement smoothie which is a complete meal with optional greens to make it a Green Thickie.
** Please note that this post may contain affiliate links which means that I can receive a small payment if you make a purchase through my links.
When I first invented the Green Thickie, I started off adding oats
I also use my Green Thickies as a great tool for weight loss.
If you drink one Green Thickie for breakfast and another for lunch and a home cooked healthy dinner, you should see results when it comes to health and weight loss. Get started with Green Thickies here.
Any of my Green Thickie recipes can be used as meal replacement shakes for weight loss.
Green Thickies are designed to be the perfect meal for busy people. If you don’t have time to sit down and eat a proper meal, you’ll get everything you need for one meal from a Green Thickie. Because they are so filling I don’t usually feel the need to snack in between meals and nor do I have time to snack. So I don’t have too many snack recipes on this website.
So let me explain what makes a Green Thickie so powerful…. There are 6 ingredients in most green thickies. The essential ingredients are:
1) Liquid such as water, juice or dairy free milk
2) Fruit/vegetables for nutrients.
3) I also add something sweet to my smoothies such as dried fruit
4) I also add leafy greens as I believe eating leafy greens regularly takes your health to the next level.
5) To make them into a complete meal there are 2 more elements. The first one is a protein source such as nuts or seeds
6) And finally, to make the green thickie filling, we need to add a healthy whole foods based filler. Keep reading to find out about fillers. I’m now going to explain the different choices of fillers you can add to your smoothie to make them into a complete meal. And after I explain the fillers I’ll also give you a formula for making your own homemade meal replacement shakes for weight loss.
So now that I’ve explained the concept behind Green Thickies, I’m going to give you a list of ingredients which are my ‘fillers’ that you can use to turn any smoothie into a filling meal replacement shake.
Each of my recipes serves 2, so all these fillers need to be added to a batch of smoothie that is enough for 2 portions.
Further down I will explain the exact quantities of ingredients you need to make your own homemade meal replacement shake.
How To Add Fillers To Smoothies To Create Weight Loss Shakes
To make your own meal replacement shakes, you can either:
- Use one of my recipes and add your choice of filler to it from the list below, or
- Create your own smoothie with the template at the bottom of this post.
20 Whole Food Fillers to turn any smoothie into Homemade Meal Replacement Shakes
If you don’t want to know how to make Green Thickies, but simply want to make your own smoothies more filling, you can just take a look at the image below.
All of the fillers in this image serve just 1. So take the ingredient listed and just add it to a single serve smoothie. You’re done! You’ve now made your smoothie more filling.
Please pin the image below or share it on your blog with a link back to this blog post.
But if you want to make a complete meal, I suggest you keep reading.
Simply adding a filling to an existing smoothie will make it more filling, but it won’t provide all of the nutrients needed in one meal such as enough protein or essential fatty acids.
To get everything you need, I suggest you incorporate all 6 elements of a meal replacement shake (Green Thickie).
As most Green Thickies recipes serve 2, I have doubled the quantity of fillers in the list below.
Fillers for Green Thickies
All of the following ingredients serve 2. If you are making a smoothie for 1, use half of the amount listed below.
Raw Ingredients (Raw, Vegan, Paleo, Primal, Grain Free, Gluten Free, GAPs, SCD Diets)
1) 3 Medium Bananas/ 3 Cups of Banana Chunks (in addition to the bananas already in the recipe)*
2) 3 Small Mangos/ 3 Cups of Mango Chunks*
3) 1 Medium Avocado or 2 small avocados*
4) 4 Tablespoons Coconut Butter* (low Carb)
5) 2/3 Cup of Coconut Milk from a Can*
6) 4 Tablespoons of Coconut Cream* (low Carb)
7) 3/4 cup Coconut Flour
8) 3/4 cup Dried Fruit such as Dates, Raisins or other plain dried fruit
Nuts (Raw, Vegan, Paleo, Primal, Grain Free, Gluten Free, GAPs, SCD Diets)
9) 1/3 Cup Nuts
10) 3 Tablespoons Nut Butter*
Seeds (Raw, Vegan, Paleo, Primal, Grain Free, Gluten Free, GAPs, SCD Diets)
11) 1/2 Cup Seeds
12) 3 Tablespoons Seed Butter*
Grains
13) 1 Cup of Oats
14) 1 Cup of Quinoa
15) 1 Cup of Buckwheat
Other Carbs (Vegan, Grain Free, Gluten Free)
16) 1 Cup Sweet Potato or White Potato*
17) 1.5 Cups cooked, drained White Beans
18) 1 Cup Tofu *
19) 2 Cups of Soy Yogurt *
The Healthiest Smoothie Powder you will ever find
20) Homemade Smoothie Mix: For those lazy days where you don’t want to prepare any of the other fillers – or you want to add something bursting with nutrients, I’ve got something pretty special for you… My 2 Minute Homemade Hunger Buster Meal Replacement Powder is exactly what you’re looking for. *
It takes just minutes to make a big batch of. And if you leave a scoop in your mix, you just add this meal replacement powder mix to your blender in seconds every time you make a smoothie. Can’t get easier than that! Get this delicious filler powder recipe here.
All of these fillers have roughly the same number of calories. Each smoothie serves 2 so you would consume half of these fillers per smoothie. This might seem a lot to you but remember, this is a complete meal, not a snack! Some of them are bulkier than others so although each shake will be roughly 18 oz/ 1 pint / (500ml) some may be smaller and some larger, but all should fill you up until your next meal.
*I have added a star next to the fillers that are easiest to blend without a high speed blender. All of the ingredients can be blended with any blender but it is easier to blend if you soak hard ingredients overnight first. Another option is to grind your grains, nuts and seeds using your blending or coffee grinding before adding them to your smoothie.
I have chosen these fillers as most of them have a fairly neutral taste, and you’d be surprised how much the sweet fruit can overpower the taste of both the fillers and any greens you add to your smoothie.
Here is a handy chart to help you see at a glance which ingredients are suitable for your special diet:
Please pin this chart for later:
How to prepare the fillers for your meal replacement shakes
Most of the fillers can be added raw but to aid digestion, improve available nutrients and make the smoothies easier to blend it is advisable to prepare the fillers in the following ways:
- Oats: Soak these in the smoothie liquid overnight and add straight to the blender
- Quinoa: Rinse then soak these in the smoothie liquid overnight and add straight to the blender.
- Buckwheat: Rinse these and continue to rinse every couple of hours for 8 hours then add straight to the blender.
- Sweet Potato: Cook this first by steaming it for 10 minutes or baking it for 20 minutes
- White Potato: Steam this for 12 minutes and bake it under tender, about 45 minutes.
- Cooked beans: Rinse canned beans or follow packet instructions to soak and cook dried beans.
- Seeds and nuts: Soak over night, rinse and add to the blender.
- * If using dates or other dried fruit, it’s also good to soak these overnight in the smoothie liquid and add it all to the blender.
How to make Homemade Diet Shakes for Weight Loss
Here is a formula that you can you to make your own shakes for weight loss.
To make 2 servings of smoothie add the following ingredients:
- 2 Cups of Liquid
- 2 Cups of Fruit or if you are avoiding fruit, 2 cups of salad vegetables
- 1/4 Cup of Dried fruit or 2 Tablespoons of liquid sweetener such as Raw Honey
or Maple Syrup
- 1/4 Cup of Nuts
or Seeds or 2 Tablespoons of Nut/Seed Butter or other protein source such beans
- 1-2 Cups of mild leafy greens
- One of the fillers above
Remember – for homemade meal replacement shakes for weight loss drink 1 serving which is half of the above recipe formula.
This formula will make approximately 18 oz/ 2 pints/ 1 litre and to lose weight, drink 9 oz/ 1 pint/ 500ml as a meal replacement. Do this for breakfast and for lunch and then have a sensible dinner that is suitable for the particular diet you are following. This is a great formula for weight loss.

Hi Katherine,I just wanted to tell you I completed the 7 day detox and I feel so great.
I have lost 6lbs, do not feel like I need more my morning coffee, the flushing of my facial skin from rosacea has dramatically reduced and I am so excited to wake up each morning and make a green thickie for breakfast!!
I am a stay at-home, homeschooling momma of 3 littles and at times so busy I would forget to feed myself!
I would go most of the day without eating and then snack on random things.
I gained 60 pounds the last 6 years during pregnancy.
I have lost 30lbs but recently plateaued and have felt so frustrated.
I’ve tried everything from paleo and keto to the point where I didn’t know what to eat or how much and felt like even eating fruit was bad for me which thankfully it’s not!
What a game changer for me. Thank you for sharing a simple but effective program.
I’m so excited to continue another week with this plan! Thankful Stephanie

Hi, I’m Katherine. I lost 56 pounds and recovered from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome by replacing meals with Green Thickies – my original smoothie concept.
Nancy A. says
I definitely need to make some of these after yesterday’s food fest. Which would be good to start with? I ate too much and feel bloated and fat! Why I ate like, I don’t know. Even desserts, which I never do. Well, I may not eat the rest of the year.
Lyani says
Can you use cooked white rice/brown rice as a filled? If so, how many cups? Thanks
Katherine Natalia @ Green Thickies says
I didn’t have much success with rice. It made my smoothie grainy but I know other’s have had success with rice. I would use one cup of rice. If you try it will you let me know if it worked for you?
Clint says
If you like rice, try the quinoa. It is similar to rice, but is a healthier option.
Nancy E says
I was wondering why yogurt and kefir are not included in the list. They make great smoothies.
Katherine Natalia @ Green Thickies says
Yes good options but they aren’t high enough in calories to make a meal replacement smoothie.
Nicki says
Hi Just to get it clear in my head – I need to add nuts and/or seed and a filler – the nuts/seeds are not a filler?
Andrea says
Hello,
Just out of curiosity.. why are there no berries used in these recipes? It seems to be the same, 3 or 4 fruits used in all of the recipes. I was hoping to see some actual vegetables incorporated into the smoothies, like zucchini, cucumber and ginger. Is there a reason why you omitted a variety of fruits and veggies in your 7 day plan?
Tomas says
I love the chart with all the different ingredients! It’s very helpful and easy to use, so thank you very much!
Gabriela says
I made my smoothie with greens, fruits, orange juice, pecans and oatmeal. How do I know how many calories I consumed?
Hannah says
Hi, I actually need to gain weight in order to be healthy. I am having problems meeting my calorie and macronutrient daily goals (2000 to 2500 calories a day) due to not having access to lots of good foods, not having a lot of different food options, not having enough time to eat, or not being home to eat. Would it be okay to use these meal replacement shakes in another way, which would be to supplement my other meals so I can get closer to my daily calorie and macronutrient requirements and have something to give me nutrients and energy when I’m not home and don’t have enough food for the day? Can I drink these in addition to my other regular meals/snacks, because what I’m currently eating isn’t enough to meet my daily requirements? Thanks in advance for any advice!
Denise Stephenson says
Has anybody used the Kitchen Aid blender before to make their Green Thickies and smoothies? I have been reading through the site and keep seeing a different order of ingredients. Liquid and dry first then greens, filler , etc. i also read another part of the site says liquid then greens, then fillers, and fruit. Confusing. I just need to know before I waste ingredients and money trying to blend a smoothie. I tried something like this a few years agoo and never liked anything mixed together. All to the consistency of applesauce.
Editor says
I think it does depend on your blender and the recipe, I’d recommend making each Green Thickie as described in the recipe.
Dionne says
Please give chia a try. Soak 1-2 tbs in smoothie liquid for 15 minutes to overnight. Blend thoroughly into smoothie. Very good protein, essential fatty acids, fiber and a great thickener.
Diana says
How long can I store my shakes in the fridge before they go bad?
Editor says
Hi Diana, it is best to eat them within 24 hours but they can usually be kept up to 3 days in a fridge. x
Jennifer says
How many scoops of protein powder should you use for a filler, also keeping in mind that your recipes have 2 servings? I want enough calories but not too much…
eille @ best blender says
wow! This Homemade Meal Replacement Shakes looks is really awesome. I think it is very effective for make the Smoothie for weight loss…! thanks for share…
Dhira says
Hi, I really need to try this after days of not being able to sit properly during meal time with two kids in tow. Ingredients are possible to find at my local market. I have few concerns:
1) Can i have it for dinner instead of lunch? It’s dinner that i usually don’t have time for.
2) I’m confused with the filler. Let’s say I make a big batch for 30 days and how much do i put in for 1 serving of smoothie? 1/4 cup of filler for each green thickies’ smoothie recipe and it makes 2 servings? And then ‘1/2 cup for the whole batch’?
I’d like to prepare fillers for the whole month & make 1 serving of smoothie at a time.
Thank you so much :)
Katherine Natalia @ Green Thickies says
Hi there 1) Yes you can have it for any meal you choose 2) if you made a big batch for 30 days, if you drank 1 serving per day you would need to make 15 batches as each batch serves 2. Yes that’s right.
SammyD says
Hello. I have a vary bad snacking problem and it doesn’t help that I work late and we sell candy only at my work,so when I get hungry you know. I have dried doing smoothies before and it went pretty well but I am just not sure on what to put in mine. I have a big sweet tooth but I like veggies :). Are there any tips that any one can give me for making a not so bitter shake? Thank you
Katherine Natalia @ Green Thickies says
Yes there are loads of gorgeous Green Thickies recipes in this post. Try taking one to work and drink that instead of snacking and see how you feel?
Marco Maldonado says

Yes greens really do wonders for your health. Me too! Thank you so much for the nice comment.
