Super Green Blend Smoothie

August 28 2014
« SCROLL PHOTOS LEFT TO RIGHT »

Morning routines, we all have them, right? I usually wake up, exercise, get ready, and then prepare a juice or blend to kickstart the day. Into my trusty blender goes what I think is a great concoction of fruits and vegetables. Sometimes it's yummy (winner!), and then sometimes, very occasionally, I get a message from my husband saying, "What's in this? Maybe don't try this one again." Oops, sorry love. ☺ That's the price of experimentation, I guess? However, my friends, this green blend recipe is a winner! It's vibrant, fresh, and packed full of greens.

Down this green blend as a powerful kickstart to your morning or add it as a great addition to lunch or dinner. Enjoy!

Ingredients

GF, VGN
10 mins
2 large / 4 small drinks
  • 1 green apple
  • 1 Lebanese cucumber
  • 1 large handful of baby spinach
  • 1 handful of kale (about 6 small leaves)
  • 1 stick of celery
  • ½ a pear
  • 1 cm piece of fresh ginger, grated
  • ½ fresh lime, squeezed
  • ½ a cup of water
  • 1 cup of ice

Method

  1. Add all the ingredients, apart from the ice, into a blender. Add leafy greens first as they seem to blend best if they are closest to the blender blades.
  2. Blend all the ingredients until combined.
  3. Add in the ice and pulse the blender a few times. (I find adding the ice in after the first blend keeps it a bit cooler and more textured)
  4. Pour into glasses and serve.
  5. Drink up, get that green goodness into you!
