Now that the weather is starting to warm up, refreshing, “cooler” foods are coming to mind. For me, smoothies are in order. Yesterday I concocted something different I wanted to share…it was fabulous! It’s made with both raw baby greens AND green tea. Lots of fruit is added for sweetness. It’s filling and delicious. Here’s the recipe followed by my YouTube video showing how it’s made. Enjoy! Judi

Two Green Fruit Smoothie
Makes about 2 Cups

12 whole almonds (raw, not roasted nor salted)
12 blueberries, fresh or frozen
1 cup chopped fruit of choice (I used kiwi and fresh pineapple)
1 banana, fresh or frozen
1 large handful of raw mixed greens (ie spinach, baby kale)
1 rounded teaspoon of milled chia seeds or flax seeds
1 cup (8 oz) freshly brewed plain green tea, cooled
Sweetener of choice, optional

Place all ingredients into a blender in the order listed. Process until smooth. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
