Greens are the RAWK STARS of the raw food lifestyle!
Greens are WICKED nutrient dense. They are loaded with all kinds of vitamins & minerals from folic acid, vitamin C, vitamin K, potassium and magnesium to iron and calcium, and they also contain phytonutrients. Scroll down for recipes.
Greens can change your life, so what
are you waiting for, get your greens on!
Sitting down to a couple of huge plates of greens each day may not be that appealing to you, but throw them in a smoothie & you are golden ... or should I say "green"? :-) Why don't you join me in a 30 day smoothie challenge?
I am not asking you to change any of your current eating habits, I am only asking that you add 1 liter of green smoothie or green juice to your diet every day for 30 days. You can drink it all in the morning or throughout your day ... whatever works for you ... just make sure by the end of the day it is gone. :-)
And if you are up for an additional challenge ... I challenge you to eat 2 side salads a day along with enjoying your green smoothie or green juice! You can do it! RAWK ON!

NOTES: REMOVE STEMS from large leafy greens before blending.
A good ratio for sweet smoothies is to use 60% perfect fruit & 40% greens.
And for less sweet smoothies, play with adding cucumbers, celery, fresh herbs, tomato & citrus juices to your greens.
These recipes make 1-2 liters of green smoothie.
If you have a regular blender, be sure to chop your fruits & veggies well & note that you may need to add more water to get it going.
