I have had a green smoothie every day since April 21st. 108 Days! Almost 200 Green Smoothies!
After our initial 3 weeks of only green smoothies and raw foods, we transitioned to Green Smoothies in the morning. It's an acquired taste, but one I'm glad I took the time to acquire. When I first started drinking these, I had to have it in a mug with a lid and an opaque straw. I really didn't want to see what I was drinking. Now I love looking at the green!
When else in my life have I had Spinach, broccoli, kale, carrots, apples, bananas, oranges, blue berries or strawberries every day?
It's so healthy... and now my body actually craves it.
Landon, Wayne, Mom, Dad and I are all drinking them.
We are committed for a year... and hopefully for life.
Eating Green has really helped Landon's headaches. He still has a day a week of migraines, but that's better than 4 days a week.
I wish I could say my skin is so awesome, or that I lost all sorts of weight, but I can say I feel healthier.
It's good for my head, my heart and my innards....
Here's how I make 2 quarts of Green Goodness.
in a Blendtec Blender I put 2 cups of Cold water, then 2 handfuls of spinach ( bag from Costco), some broccoli flowerets, handful of baby carrots. Blend.... 40 seconds.....this ends up to be about 4 cups. Then I add 2 Stevia packets for sweetening. 1 cored Apple, 1 peeled orange, 1 banana, 10 frozen strawberries and 6 ice cubes. Blend....40 seconds... pour and enjoy.
Wayne has found a plant based raw protein powder that we mix in it now as well... SunWarrior brand. I make 4 quarts a day, atleast, and keep a good stock of quart jars in my fridge.
