Drink Your Greens

Last year, with Magic Bullet in hand and a resolution to increase my energy I stumbled upon Angela Liddon’s Oh She Glows blog and her Green Monster recipes. The smoothies combine kale or spinach with other ingredients to make energy-boosting vitamins taste like a sweet treat.

One year later, my favourite is still the blueberry-banana.

What you’ll need:

2 cups organic spinach
1 cup of almond milk
1 tablespoon of flax (optional)
1 banana
½ cup blueberries
Ice

The method:

Place all of the ingredients except the ice in the blender and hit start. Once everything is blended add the ice and blend some more. Or, use frozen blueberries and bananas to skip the ice.
