Green Smoothie Blueprint
From: 
Prep time: 
Total time: 
Serves: 1 adult, 2-4 children
 
Ingredients
  • ½ - 1 Cup Liquid (Water, Coconut Water, Orange, Apple, or Pomegranate Juice)
  • 2 Cup Greens (Spinach is most mild, I just stuff as much into the blender as I can)
  • 1-2 TB Flax, Chia or Hemp seeds
  • Any additional superfoods such as goji berries, nuts and/or dried fruits like, currants, raisin, dates or figs.
  • 1-2 Fresh Fruit (1 banana & 1 apple, pear, mango or pineapple slices. Banana adds sweet.)
  • 1½ - 2 Cup Frozen Fruit (blackberry, raspberry, blueberry mix turns it purple)
  • Option: Your chosen sweetener (See Sweet Options for my preferences)
  • Option: Avocado ( ½ -1), Kefir (1-2 TB), Yogurt ( ¼ C)
Method
  1. Blend liquid, spinach, seeds and superfood additions until smooth.
  2. Then add the fresh & frozen fruit, and other optional ingredients
  3. Blend till smooth and serve.
  4. Careful not to over blend or you’ll have a warm smoothie! This is why I blend the greens & hard nuts, seeds & dried fruits first before I add my fruit & frozen ingredients.)
