GREEN SMOOTHIE, ANYONE?

Hi everyone! I thought I’d do a post on Green Smoothies!

Anyone ever try them?

If you haven’t, you should. 

They are packed with goodness for your body.

My husband and I drink them daily now.

If you’re someone who can’t stand eating your veggies, then try it this way.

I always reference back to the Simple Green Smoothies website for any information I may need.

Lots of informative tips and great recipes, too!

Here’s my blender doing what it does best…

 

  

I got started by trying their 30 day Green Smoothie Challenge.

They have another one starting on April 1st.

Great jump-start and once you get 21 days into it, you’ve made it a habit!

Now that’s one habit I can live with.

🙂

I even made a layout about it.

Keep in mind you don’t need to have a super expensive blender to make these. 

You can use any blender you have.

Start with your greens and liquids first.

Blend those till you get a nice consistency, then add your remaining ingredients.

I recommend trying spinach first and then kale, and then {baby} romaine.

Your smoothie won’t taste like you’re eating a plant.

Use a 60/40 formula (60% fruits / 40% leafy greens).

Bananas are also a great way to naturally sweeten your smoothies.

Sometimes I’ll put 2 in if I’m making enough for two people.

And the little ones love them, too!

Great way to sneak in proteins and other goodness.

Saige loves, Mom approves!

Now go make one!
