a recipe i found online. basically salad in a smoothie and suprisingly delicious. i drink them after workouts and they have TOTALLY boosted my energy and don’t raise your BG much at all! full of vitamins and good fats!
Which recipe on greensmoothiegirl.com? Laura’s following All-Green Blender Smoothie Recipe? I’d going to try that one as I have cucumbers and lemons starting to go bad, plus I like avocados and have bagged frozen spinach and collard greens. Gotta get some kale. Thanks for the post.
1 avocado
1 large cucumber
2 cups spinach
2 large leaves collard greens
2 leaves black kale
3 lemons, juice only
1.5 cups water
(a few slices of a Gala apple sometimes)
Puree well and enjoy!
yeah lucile that’s the one! i make one at night- drink half after workout and then the other half for breakfast!
careful though i’ve had people ask me if i was following the lawn mower around and others have mooed at me LOL
i think you have to buy her book to learn more recipes i have some friends who have done some experimenting of their own and came up with some great ones! i’ll try to find and post them
hey domo, i’m looking for a recipe that someone emailed me with berries. i add strawberries to the green smoothie once in awhile but i dont really like the combo too much.
i keep mine in the fridge for 10 hours and they have been fine. it also depends on how thick you make it too. the thinner ones separate a bit some times
For those wimps who can’t handle the green smoothies this one is called Pink Coconut Smoothie! I haven’t tried it yet but i’m told it’s delicious!
1 ½ cups raw coconut milk (you can buy baby Thai coconuts from an Asian market, and ask an employee how to open the coconut. you can also buy coconut liquid in a can, which is easier but without the enzymes)
½ of a medium-sized raw beet (remove skin)
1-2 carrots (or 10 baby carrots)
¼ cup cashews
6 dates, seeds removed (or ¼ cup chopped dates found in bulk in the health food store)
1 Tbsp. vanilla
Puree on high in BlendTec Total Blender for 60 seconds, then add
12 frozen strawberries
Puree until smooth and enjoy with a straw!
