Green Smoothie Recipe - Top 5
Try the best green smoothie recipe ever! I drink about two full
blender jars of these drinks a day. They are healthy, easy and quick to
make and absolutely delicious. Each green smoothie recipe below
is chuck full of healthy minerals (e.g. calcium and iron), vitamins,
co-factors, life force, fiber. And very important, they are alkalizing. Green smoothies are critical for health. To make these recipes , all you need are the ingredients and a blender
. A high speed blender such as Vitamix or Blendtec is best because they
break the cell wall. This way you absorb the nutrients easily. But if
you're just starting a raw vegetable diet, any other blender will do too. My first year on raw food, I just used a hand blender (Cuisine art, 700 Watt).All recipes serve about 2-3 people and can be kept for up to 12 hours as long as you add enough water (great when traveling).
