We have been into "green shakes" or "green smoothies" depending on your preferred terminology. Lauren recently picked up what she had believed to be a recipe book from the library over the weekend. Turns out it was a chronicle of some woman that fell in love with green shakes. She provides insights, recipes, health benefits, etc.
The following are a few of the shakes we have had this week:
Monday:
spinach
lemon
cilantro
banana
apple
strawberry
ground flax seeds
water
silken tofu
Tuesday:
spinach
parsley
basil
banana
strawberries
frozen cherries
ground flax seeds
soy milk
silken tofu
Wednesday:
romaine lettuce
fresh mint
cucumber
lime
banana
honey
ground flax seeds
silken tofu
Our blender is doing a surprising job of liquifying all of the ingredients. The author of the book, and her name escapes me right name, burned through blender after blender. Apparently the greens eventually work down the motor. Or the blades get dull and it can no longer handle the greens. She uses a Vitamix. They cost $440. So I don't know about that.
But, so far so good.
