Deep Blue Secret

Hi Friends!

Today I have another yummalicious smoothie recipe for you. Although it appears to be deep blue in color, this smoothie actually contains not one but TWO green things. Blueberries are so high in antioxidants that their pigment will mask the green color of your drink, which is perfect for folks new to green smoothies, kids, or anyone else that might be put-off by green liquid. :-)



Deep Blue Secret Smoothie

1 navel orange
1 banana (frozen if you want a colder smoothie)
1 cup blueberries (again I like frozen, in this case because you can save money by stocking up on frozen berries when they are on sale)
1 large handful spinach
1 tsp SPIRULINA (let's talk spirulina tomorrow!)
1 cup coconut water
1 cup almond milk

Blend it all up and YUM!

I hope you all enJOY this recipe...off to work, powered by fruit & greens!

  2. We have to get the Bro to blend this one up. Sounds good. Tell me more about spirulina--I used that about 33 years ago and don't remember why.

  4. Interesting comment about masking the color of the green drink for those unaccustomed. Parents: start your kids off early in life with a BIG dose of VARIETY as American food hangups are MULTITUDINOUS!
