Going along with the salad recipe I posted last week, I wanted to share a recipe of a green drink/smoothie that my parents drink pretty much every morning. This green drink is going along with the whole kale and greens smoothie product that is trending right now, and this smoothie my parents make is so delicious that I had to share the recipe.
Ingredients:
1. Lettuce
2. Kale or Spinach
3. Bundle of celery
4. 1 lemon, halved (only half of a lemon is used in this recipe)
5. 1 granny smith apple
6. 1 banana
7. 1 pear
8. Tap water
9. Vitamix blender or any large blender
Procedure:
1. Wash and chop up multiple sticks of celery from the bundle or as many until you are satisfied. Do the same with the lettuce. Then put all of that into the blender and add in your un-chopped kale as well. Fill up your blender 3/4 of the way with greens.
2. Add enough water so it covers the majority of the greens. Then blend for 1 minute or until everything is mixed evenly and a liquid is present, with no clumps of greens.
3. Wash and chop up your apple, banana, and pear. Halve the lemon as well.
4. Add in your apple, banana, and pear, and squeeze the juice from one half of a lemon into the blender.
5. Blend everything again for 1 minute to 1 min 30 sec until everything is mixed evenly and the product is a green liquid.
6. Pour your smoothie into a cup and enjoy!
