I am going to buy my BLENDER today. I am so excited :D
I was wondering what everyone's favourite green smoothie was.
& What supplements can I add to it to make it even better for my body?
The simplest smoothie that I love is 1/4 pineapple and handful of spinach. (May add water if needed.) YUMMMM!!!!
The following is a smoothie recipe that I got rom my Naturopathic doc.
High Protein Smoothie
2 large Fuji apples, juice of
1 banana, peeled
5-6 large strawberries
1/2 cup of blueberries
¼ of a pineapple (including ¼ of the stem)
1/2 handful of almonds
1/2 handful of cashews
¼ avocado meat
2-3 pitted dates
2 handfuls of parsley or 4-5 leaves of Romaine or 2 leaves of Kale
1 TBS of coconut oil (optional)
1-2 cups of water, depending on how thick you like you smoothie
Blend away and drink up! YUMMMM!!!
Right now I'm drinking a green smoothie with banana, pear, baby spinach, cucumber, ginger, parsley, freshly squeezed carrot juice, and distilled water. UMMMMMMMMMM good.
Half a pineapple (or a whole one if it's small),
about 5 heads of baby bok choy (or a bunch of spinach or water spinach)
a knob of fresh ginger,
a sprinkle of cinnamon.
If I only have a bit of pineapple left but I want to make a bigger batch of smoothie then I chuck in a couple Fuji apples.
This is easy and always makes me happy. I'm made some pretty ho-hum smoothies lately that just taste like banana but this is never a disappointment...if you like a little "grassy" taste to your smoothie.
Gee I am surprised that you haven't had many responses. I mean Green is good!! Gotta love Green Smoothies. Have you read Victoria Boutenko's book: Green For Life? www.rawfamily.com She has some valuable info in the book., She has 23 smoothies that I rotate through. (rotating being very important). My Favourite: Strawberry Field:
2 c strawberries
2 bananas (brown spots on bananas)
1/2 bunch romaine
2 c water
Yields: 4 cups (lunch is served!! - 2c for me & 2c for my hubby)

I was at a red light. Same thing also happened to me when Rudy Guiliani crossed in front of my car. Hitting the gas did occur to me for a second or two.
Sure, too much fat is bad for the liver. But fat isn't per se bad for the liver, is it?
Not only in 811 but also other people say to limit the fat but maybe raw plant fat helps to flush out some stuff out of the liver?
When you've been on a fat fr...
