(Guest Post) Eating your veggies is easy with green smoothies. Green smoothies are full of fiber, and as they are smashed up already, your body has no trouble absorbing them.
Green smoothies provide you a rich, concentrated form of nutrients that help in enhancing your health. Most people think that as these smoothies do not contain dairy products, they are devoid of creaminess and richness. However, that is not true. By choosing the ingredients wisely, you can get the same rich frothiness without adding milk or cream. Check the below given green smoothie recipe and find it out by yourself.
To prepare a green smoothie, you will require:
- Greens (Select any one from Kale, lettuce, broccoli, cabbage, celery, turnip greens)
- Fruits (Select two to three fruits- apples, pears, bananas, pineapple, kiwi, blueberries and papaya)
- Orange juice
- Non dairy milk or water
- Watery vegetable (cucumber, squash or celery)
I usually experiment with different fruits and leafy greens to explore unique flavors and taste. I recommend go with what your taste buds prefer.
Preparation
My all time favorite smoothie is Classic green smoothie. If you are new to green smoothies, pick this one. Take two to three fruits and blend them in a good, high power blender. Start with fewer amounts of fruit and then add more for thickening or sweetening purpose. Make sure you use ripe fruits. Bananas are preferred choice as they add richness and creaminess to green smoothie. Now add watery vegetable and your choice of greens. Put two to three tablespoons of orange juice in to it. This will give tanginess to the smoothie. Blend it well by adding some ice in it.
This green smoothie recipe is fruity, delicious and loaded with goodness.
Juicing and smoothies seem to be the latest health craze. It is a great way to tap the healing power of raw foods that are loaded with power-boosting nutrients. Fresh fruits and veggies get easily digested by the body and provide instant vitamins, minerals and other nutrients.
