Getting your GREEN ON!

Smoothies are a quick way to get your meal on, great nutrition and an easy "fix" to keeping your energy and metabolism revved up throughout the day! And if you aren't a fan of "greens" this is a great way to mask their flavor and still get all their nutritional benefits. So get your GREEN ON!
 Green Monster Smoothie
  • 2 cup kale, fresh
  • 2 cup water
  • 3 bananas
  • 1/4 avocado

Instructions

Blend kale and water until smooth. Next add the remaining fruits and blend again. * Use at least one frozen fruit to make the green smoothie cold.

Quick TIP: Don't limit your imagination when it comes to your smoothie making! Use this "base" recipe and add all kinds of extras..... Need protein? Add a scoop of your favorite protein powder, or add flax seed or wheat germ for disease fighting power and digestive fiber. Almond milk instead of water brings a wonderful creaminess, as well! Apples, mangoes, strawberries, carrot juice, whatever you fancy, add it in and enjoy!
