I start my day most days with a nice big green smoothie! Green drinks are alkalizing and hydrating. We wake up on the acidic side and dehydrated so this makes an awesome start to the day! I change my smoothie up each day depending on what i have in my fridge. One thing i never change though is the avocado, the lemon (lime if i don't happen to have lemon) and the stevia. If you do apples you can use a Granny Smith apple in place of the stevia if you like. I'm not a huge fan of the texture that apples give my smoothie so i just don't use them but lots of people do and love it.
Good Morning Green Smoothie
1/2 - 1 ripe Avocado
2 cups filtered water
Fresh Ginger - peeled (about thumb nail size piece)
1/8 - 1/4 fresh peeled Lemon wedge
Vanilla Cream Stevia to taste
Large handful lettuce (any kind but iceberg!)
Handful fresh spinach
2 ribs celery
1/2 cucumber
1 Tbsp Coconut Oil
Chard (a few leaves)
I also open 2 Chlorella capsules and dump this into the mixture
Whatever other veggies you want to throw in
Throw all ingredients in blender and blend until smooth and drink up! This makes a lot (about a quart) so could be for two people. On weekends i am known to share with people i love but on weekdays i usually drink the whole quart myself!
If i am really on top of it i throw all this in the blender the night before and put it in the fridge so in the morning i just have to blend and drink! Think i will go throw one together now for tomorrow!
