Smoothies - Green with Energy

Not For The Faint-of-Heart Blending

Greetings all, the newest thing happening in the kitchen are these super nutrient rich smoothies. I have one fave recipe that I will pass onto you now to try on your own - don't be afraid - this thing actually tastes quite good, thanks to the red grapes and orange.

Green with Energy Green Smoothie

2 Cups Red Organic Grapes
1 Organic Orange (Peeled)
6 Leaves Romaine Lettuce (Ripped Up)
1 Tbsp Ground Flax Seeds
1/2 Cup Water (Plus a Bit More as Needed)
1 Cup Organic Apple Juice

Place the all ingredients in blender, and blend 1-2 minutes, add a bit more water as needed to keep things moving, the drink will be thick but needs to move in the blender in order to be well-inorporated.

You may refrigerate any extra - but try to drink the whole thing within 24 hours. Your body will thank you for this energy boosting beverage. Bottoms Up!

There are so many awesome things that have been happening in the kitchen, garden and on the yoga mat, so we will be posting quite a bit this month.
