I love smoothes!!  I drink one almost every day.  I find that they are a GREAT way to get high-quality nutrients into my daily diet.  While many smoothies can be quite high in sugar & carbs, I’ve been experimenting with predominantly veggie-based mixes.  Recently I was asked by a client just exactly what was in my smoothie.  Well…here ya go!

Ingredients

• Yogurt, plain & full fat
• Cucumber
• Parsley
• Broccoli or Cauliflower (frozen works great – it blends up easily & taste is less strong)
• Greens, all kinds (I use Power Green mix)
• Nuts, any kind (I use almonds)
• Seeds, any kind (I use chia and/or flax)
• Berries, fresh or frozen any kind (I use blueberries or raspberries)

Put all in blender or Nutribullet with a bit of water.  Blend well & enjoy! I’ve also added all sorts of other ingredients – avocadoes, fresh ginger, celery.  It kind of depends on what’s in my refrigerator!  If you find a particularly delish blend, please post it for all to enjoy!
