Greens are so important to our overall health. I urge you to get in the habit of a daily green smoothie. It’s just too easy to not do! I avoid plastic and that includes straws. You can find silicone straws like the one in the picture HERE.
Smoothie Tips:
-
-
- If you are not happy with the taste, adding a banana can boost flavor (sugar) as well as add creaminess.
- Go HERE for more smoothie additives that boost nutrition without adding flavor.
- Drink immediately for optimal nutritional value.
- Freeze your spinach the minute you notice it wilting or turning slimy. This will preserve your greens so you don’t waste.
