Today's smoothie is all about this delicious and fragrant weed... MINT!

It's just so beautiful, isn't it!?

Makes 1 or 2 servings:

1.5 cups water
.5 cup organic unfiltered apple juice
slice lemon
1/2 cup or about 10 leaves of fresh basil
1/4 cup parsley (I used flat leaf italian because that is what we have growing right now... curly parsley is also very flavorful)
1/2 cup mint leaves - fresh from the garden!
1 green apple (skin removed because it was not organic)
1 cup green grapes
2 or 3 cups spinach
2 or 3 cups kale

Look at that beautiful dark purple color! Oh how I love Spring... Is in the air!!!

Today's smoothie consists of the following:

Makes 1 serving or about 20oz

1-1.5c water

3 small celery stalks (with the leaves)

1 ripe and soft kiwi

Slice of lemon

1c frozen wild blueberries

1c baby spinach

2c spring mix salad greens

4 drops of liquid stevia

Blend and enjoy this dark purple smoothie!

Smoothie and then a espresso... that is my daily regimen! Thanks to my hubby for the new mug, I have room for multiple shots of espresso :)  

This is BY FAR my favorite smoothie, my husband and kids also love it!  What's not to love about peanut butter, banana and chocolate?!

Makes about 30oz

2c vanilla almond milk** (if using water, add in a dash of vanilla extract!)
2 heaping tablespoons of peanut or other nut butter
1 heaping tablespoon of raw cacao nibs
2 large handfuls of baby spinach
2 dandelion green leaves
2 large tuscan kale leaves

**I do try to avoid using store bought almond milk because it is processed and has 'iffy' ingredients in it, but once in a while is ok.  Anything in moderation, right!?  Just keep eating (or drinking) your greens and it will help purify your system of any 'iffy' free radicals.

This type of smoothie is always my GO TO for when I'm feeling bloated, nasty, sluggish and just need a good "detox"!!!  The lemon and ginger are great detoxifiers.  

Just look at the pics and how gorgeous all of the GREEN colors are!  Nothing but goodness :)

Makes 1 or 2 servings:

1 or 2c water
1 big handful of curly parsley
1 big handful of fresh baby spinach
1 big handful of frozen spinach (I used this because I ran out of baby spinach)
2 celery stalks
1 green apple
slice of lemon
nub of fresh ginger (I store this peeled and in the freezer, so I simply cut off pieces whenever I'm ready to use it)
1 ripe kiwi (ripe when soft)
1 banana OR stevia to taste (optional for extra sweetness)

Makes 22oz

1/4 cucumber (peeled)
1c flat leaf Italian parsley
1/4 or 1/2 tsp fresh grated ginger
2 or 3 celery stalks
1c kale
1-2c baby spinach

Ginger is an awesome anti inflammatory ingredient to anything - tea, soups, stews and smoothies!

• It's said to help with menstrual cycle issues
• Will help an upset stomach (Remember your mother pushing ginger ale on you whenever you stomach hurt?!)  Well, the fresh is best!
• It's said to help with arthritis (as it's an anti inflammatory!!)
• It's said to have aphrodisiac properties!
• And most importantly, it helps your body absorb beneficial minerals and nutrients from other foods.

Today's Sexy Ingredient: CELERY! Don't waste the celery leaves... Throw them in your smoothie! Unless of course you buy the prepared/washed/chopped type from grocery store.
