Green Smoothie Of The Moment

You know I’m always switching up my green smoothie; this was the green smoothie of the moment. Ha. I started writing this blog post last week when it was what I making every day. This week I’ve been doing various green smoothies without any fruit in them. Once I get one down that seems worth sharing, I will.

I split the following recipe with my husband, so I’m writing this as two servings, but of course, as always, adjust to your/your family’s needs.

You may like this similar Go-To Green Smoothie written as one 32 oz serving. I use the same amount of fruit in my current recipe for 2 servings and this one for 1 serving, with the exception of the Medjool date.

This Cleansing Green Pineapple Smoothie is a good one when you want to switch things up.

TIDBIT: One thing I’ve been doing these past few months is buying whole flaxseeds instead of ground flaxseed. I kept hearing how buying whole flaxseed (I buy different brands depending on where I’m buying) and freshly grinding them is so much better for potency and actual absorption. To make it easier to clean the blender, I’ll sometimes add a week’s worth to a coffee grinder and then store in a jar in the fridge. Some Flaxseed Benefits: Omega 3’s, improves brain function, reduces inflammation, helps balance hormones, high in fiber, improves digestion and elimination

Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients

  

• fill about 75 percent of the blender with mostly spinach and a small amount of kale if on hand curly kale or dino kale
• 1/2 large bunch of celery
• 10 fresh mint leaves a handful of parsley is a good substitute here too
• 1 banana
• 1 apple
• 1 pear
• 1 lemon skin removed
• 1" ginger
• 1 Medjool date
• 1/2 tsp ceylon cinnamon
• 1/2 cup whole flaxseeds 4 TBSP each
• 2 tsp spirulina powder
• optional powders Barley Grass Juice Powder and Amla powder – Amla is better tasting in berry smoothies, but I still add it for the benefits sometimes
• water to blend I fill it about 25% of the way as flaxseeds require more water. I'll sometimes add more yet after blending depending on the consistency. Use cold filtered water if you don't prefer a room temperature smoothie.

Method

 

1. Add everything to the blender and blend until smooth. Enjoy as it nourishes and hydrates your cells! I'm using a large 64 oz Vitamix Blender to make this.
