Cool down with an unexpectedly yummy veggie smoothie

 

Check these out, too...

  • Yum! Grilled shrimp recipes for a weekend cookout
  • 7 ridiculous caffeine-laced products (and why they just might disappear)
  • Hands off that hotdog! Do you know what's going on your bun?
Don’t wanna eat your veggies? Drink ’em! “You need five fruit and veggie servings a day, and drinking them is a great option,” says health guru Kris Carr. This vitamin-rich veggie smoothie is sweet and tasty, but still packs a major nutritional punch.

Super Green Smoothie Recipe
Ready to get your blend on? Kris’ recipe makes enough for two servings so you can have this scrumptious snack twice a day. Don’t be afraid to play around with the ingredients to match your taste.

1 avocado • 1-2 green apples or ripe pears • 1 cucumber • 1 cup of kale, romaine or spinach • 1 cup coconut water (or purified water) • Stevia to taste (it’s a natural sweetener—find it at the grocery store) • A sprinkle of cinnamon (optional, but yummy)

Peel and cut the veggies. Cut all of the fruit into 1-inch pieces . Pop all of the ingredients in a blender and whirl until smooth. Drink up, buttercup.

I don't get how this looks grosser than brown stuff blended together... (milkshakes). It tastes great and is healthier too! So really, what's different between looking like green crap or brown crap?
