GREEN BREAKFAST SMOOTHIE



Green Breakfast Smoothie image

I make this for breakfast every morning. It gets its sweetness from the tart frozen raspberries and pineapples. Add more soy milk if smoothie is too thick. Ingredients fit best in a regular size blender.

DAILY DETOX RITUAL #2: BREAKFAST MEAL REPLACEMENT GREEN SMOOTHIE



Daily Detox Ritual #2: Breakfast Meal Replacement Green Smoothie image

This is a great smoothie to add to your morning routine...countless variations can be made by using different fruits and fresh greens. Use what you have on hand, or what you may have a surplus of in the fridge. Citrus fruits and greens are the magic combo, as fruits high in Vit C help your body absorb more iron from the greens.Lemon and lime juice are great alkalizers, and enhances the taste of the smoothie. Add stevia or coconut nectar if needed. I like using frozen LOW GI fruits to keep the smoothie cold without adding ice (papaya, pears, apple) ! Try adding a combination of the fruits listed, not all are necessary each time-if you are in a hurry try just one or two fruits (pineapple and papaya have the most enzymes so I try to keep these on hand).

Time 5m

Yield 2 Smoothies, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 orange
1/2 cup pineapple
1/2 banana
1/2 cup mango
1/2 cup papaya
1 cup spinach
1 cup kale
3 celery ribs
1/2 lime juice
1/2 lemon juice
2 cups water
stevia

Steps:

  • Start with water, you can use 1 cup to start, blend in about one small handful each of spinach and kale. Blend until smooth *if using a regular blender, try frozen organic chopped spinach. VITA MIX: add all ingredients in order, no need to blend greens first.
  • Add in 1/2 orange, cut into a few smaller pieces, try leaving a little rind! Make sure you take all seeds out. Break celery (more fat burning, anti-inflammatory!) into chunks, and blend smooth. NOTE: Citrus type fruits work best, for best nutrient absorption.
  • Add in harder fruits first, banana and lemon/lime last. If too thick, add in cold water until desired thickness, remember, it's a smoothie-not a juice:).
  • Add stevia and sweeten to taste, and try a pinch of dry or fresh mint if you find it strong for your palate!

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients ahead of time: Washing, chopping, and freezing fruits and vegetables in advance saves time and makes it easier to blend your smoothie in the morning.
  • Use frozen fruits and vegetables: Frozen fruits and vegetables are just as nutritious as fresh ones, and they help keep your smoothie cold and thick.
  • Add a variety of fruits and vegetables: The more variety you have in your smoothie, the more nutrients you'll get. Aim for a mix of fruits, vegetables, and leafy greens.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment: There are endless possibilities when it comes to green smoothies. Feel free to mix and match different fruits, vegetables, and greens to find your favorite combination.
  • Start with a simple recipe: If you're new to green smoothies, start with a simple recipe that includes just a few ingredients. Once you're comfortable with the basics, you can start experimenting with more complex recipes.

Conclusion:

Green smoothies are a delicious and nutritious way to start your day. They're packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that can help boost your energy levels, improve your digestion, and support your immune system. If you're looking for a healthy and refreshing breakfast or snack, give green smoothies a try.
