    BLUE-GREEN SMOOTHIE

     Add this to your list of incredibly nourishing smoothies that taste great.  You can put a smoothie in a water bottle and sip it throughout the morning at work to maintain your energy in a low calorie, high nutrient way.

     This recipe delivers 7 grams of protein.  Plus more than 20% of your day’s supply of calcium, magnesium and potassium as well as six B vitamins!  It supplies well over the RDA for vitamin C, K and beta-carotene.

    INGREDIENTS

    2 – 3 C coarsely chopped kale

    1 ¼ C fresh or frozen blueberries

    1 large, ripe banana

    1 medium orange, peeled and chopped

    1 C filtered water

     Combine all ingredients in a blender and process until smooth, using enough water to achieve the desired consistency.

     Thanks to my Raw Food Culinary Arts Instructor Cherie Soria for this recipe.  You can find it in her book Raw Revolution Diet.
