My Favorite Green Smoothie
Report
I love the way these delicious green smoothies make me feel. I love that I am getting tons of healthy greens; spinach, kale, parsley, cilantro or whatever greens you like in one big jar a day, to give my body what it really wants.

Ingredients
- water
- leaves spinach or kale
- parsley fresh, pinch
- cilantro pinch
- ginger optional, fresh
- 1 celery optional, stalk
- 1 tbsp orange juice concentrate
- 1 cup pineapple frozen
- strawberries frozen, handful
- 1 banana
- 1 apple optional, cored
Instructions
- Add water to blender, fill the blender approximately 1/4 full.
- Next fill the blender to the brim with fresh spinach leaves or kale leaves.
- Add a pinch of fresh parsley and cilantro.
- If you desire, add a little bit of fresh ginger and a celery stalk or any other greens you like.
- Turn the blender on low and gradually increase the speed.
- Then put it on full power for about 30 to 45 seconds so the greens are really fine.
- Turn the blender off.
- You can add in more greens if you like. If you like an extra thick smoothie, grab another handful of spinach leaves and add it in.
- After your greens are all mixed up, add in about 1 tbsp of orange juice concentrate.
- Then add 1 cup of frozen pineapple.
- A handful of frozen strawberries and banana.
- Every once in awhile I also throw in an apple (cored).
- Then blend until thick and smooth.
