In case you were wondering what a green smoothie might look like, I've added a picture. This is from today, which is very green because the orange didn't change it colors. The ones with raspberries tend to have a more brown color. I'll try to take a picture of that one tomorrow!
These generally taste very good if you have a sweet fruit in them that dominates. Raspberries and other berries do a great job. Today, mine is still sweet, but a bit more bitter, which I believe is actually the parsley I'm tasting.
Today's recipe was:
1c water
1c spinach
1/4 c parsley
1 orange (without peel)
1 banana (without peel)
1 TBS chia seeds
Total calories for about 24oz is 246.
Anyone ready to try a green smoothie yet?

rob62521 - I can't speak for creditcardfree of course, but when I drink soy/fruit/veg smoothies for breakfast they leave me feeling really good all morning. Blood sugar remains stable, brain seems to function on full power, and my energy output is great.
