Happy Spring to all of you! I saw many fat little robins on my lawn yesterday…a sure sign of sunshine to come. Start of your Spring with a little Spring cleaning. I challenge you to do the Green Smoothie challenge cleanse.
Directions for the next 7-10 days:
1. Every day drink 32 ounces of delicious green smoothie. Make in the morning in your blender or VitaMix (much better at liquifying the greens than a standard blender) and drink through out the day or even just for breakfast. Recipe to follow.
2. Eat only fruits, veggies, limited whole grains and drink lots of water. No wheat or dairy. No sugar or processed food.
3. You can do some lean protein…fish and white meat or protein powder.
Green Smoothies:
2-3 cups water (add more if you like it thinner)
Fruit–add 2 to 3 pieces of fruit (frozen berries, frozen bananas, apple, mango, pear, orange etc…)
Greens–add 4-5 leaves of kale, two handfuls spinach, or other greens till your hearts content
Other–can sweeten with stevia or a bit of agave. I also add flaxmeal or chia seeds to my smoothie. Ice can be nice too.
Smoothies should taste good so adjust according to your taste! Here is a TOAST with my green smoothie to your Spring cleanse!
