Posted by Angela | Posted in Reader Recipes | Posted on 13-01-2011 Oh dear! I hate to admit it, but I am kind of obsessed with reading your blog! I’ve been juicing for a while, any my three kids LOVE LOVE LOVE IT.
My 4 year old would drink green juice all day long. I decided to try out your green monster, but really wanted to add some other protein to it, and make it more of a meal replacement. I wandered over to Sunflower Market…..a “farmers market” grocery we have here in Las Vegas to see what they had. I decided to buy it. Now normally I would be ripping into it and getting way ahead of myself to even make it the right way. 1 cup of almond milk 1 scoop of Life’s Basics Plant Protein 1 handful of washed, organic spinach leaves 1 fully ripened, but frozen banana. Lid on…and away we went. Into the glass it went. Lifted glass to lips and I kid you not…..I was drinking Vanilla Cake Batter with a hint of banana.
Spinach and strawberry smoothie. Spinach and strawberry smoothie I can’t believe I have not posted more smoothie recipes in my blog……. bad, bad girl :-) because these are nutritionally very powerful and extremely easy to make. We tend to have them a lot, almost everyday since it is super easy to add fruits and veggies to smoothies and kids love them. If you have kids, or yourself, and find that it is hard to incorporate fruits or veggies into your diet, this is the way to go. I always have plenty of frozen organic berries like strawberries, and raspberries in my freezer and bananas and spinach in my pantry pretty much at all times, so making them its just a breeze :-) Anyhow, I will try to post more smoothie variations since the summer is almost here and these are very indicative of this type of weather. Enjoy!! Print Save Ingredients: 6 oz fresh spinach 8 oz frozen organic raspberries or strawberries, I used strawberries for this one 1-2 ripe bananas 4-5 cups almond milk 1/4 cup flax seed meal, optional Directions: Related Posts.
Green Monsters. [From this post on Oh She Glows] During January 2009, I felt a huge void in my life. I was unhappy with my career and I was often up late at night until 3 or 4 in the morning worrying about work. I dragged all day long and I was turning into someone I didn’t recognize anymore. I started blending green vegetables in my blender after reading about Kris Carr’s green juices. While I didn’t have a juicer, I did have a blender, and I was excited to blend my green ‘juice’ any way that I could. In my Story of the Green Monster post, I explained: Determined to feel alive once again, I crammed the healthiest foods into my blender and I blended my little heart out.
This was one of my first concoctions: No almond milk, just kale, an English cucumber, and baby carrots. lol. Thankfully, my Green Monsters have improved greatly since those initial days. On January 26, 2009, I gave my two weeks notice at my job. This is a recipe that I keep coming back to again and again and it never fails me. [print_this]
