Ok, so it might not change your life, but this smoothie will indeed make your mornings a little sweeter.
Last summer I got both a Vitamix and Nutribullet (which I LOVE incidentally– read more on that here), and my go-to morning brew is now this simple smoothie. It’s filled with good stuff and the splash of apple juice and ice (surprise–who says green juices need to be room temp?) make it refreshing and oh-so-good.
Kid Tip: Sometimes, after I pour out half for me I’ll throw in some banana and a few frozen berries and blend up the rest for Aria. Totally toddler approved.
Ingredients:
1-2 Celery Stalks cut up.
1 Persian Cucumber (or about 3-4 inches or so off a regular one. I find the persians sweeter and tastier).
1-2 cups of baby kale or spinach or mixed smoothie greens (often baby kale, chard, and spinach).
1/4- 1/2 cup of Apple Juice (depending on sweetness desired)
1-2 ice cubes
*go organic on as much as you can!
Directions:
Throw it all in blender of choice and blend! Pour into a pretty glass (adds to the enjoyment) and indulge in the deliciousness.
