There is an easier way to get your greens….
(Yes, eating greens is important. For a lot of reasons. I get into those here <—–top 10 reasons to eat your greens)
That being said, DRINKING them is an awesome option! I’ve been drinking green smoothies since college when my Mom bought some new green powder. A long time smoothie fan, I thought why not throw some of the powder into the mix. WOW! I knew something must be up with these things when I felt a boost of energy after drinking them for only a few days. PLUS, those days my diet was far from ideal, so I knew it had to be the smoothie kick starting my energy.
My roommates used to gag and and ask me “HOW are you DRINKING that?” with looks of disgust on their faces. They didn’t know the secret……
Confession: I didn’t know it either!
{*Pssst!* Secret is: They can actually taste good!}
The ones I used to blend up in college didn’t taste so great, so I didn’t dare say, here try it! I’ve come a long way and now (usually) they taste really good!
About Project Green Smoothie
After watching a video about a guy giving away 30 presents for his 30th birthday, I came up with the idea to share my green smoothies with unsuspecting morning walkers/ beach goers! They always make me happy in the morning, so I’m passing it on!
Day 1
I set off with green smoothie in hand (Day 1 recipe: frozen berries, banana, coconut water, spinach). After offering to unsuspecting person #1, he passed saying he felt like he was about to throw up, in his worlds ” …not because of what you just told me is in that smoothie….”
UMMM, Operation Green Smoothie was off to a rocky start…
Things took a turn for the better when I offered the smoothie to Laura. She had never tried a green smoothie, and to her surprise, she liked it!
Here she is with two dogs, Cowboy and Peanut, enjoying her smoothie on a sunny St Pete morning!
