Glowing AM Smoothie
When I first began my journey, the first thing I changed was what I was having for breakfast. My breakfast use to consist of eggs, potatoes & bread - something heavy. I took a note out of Kimberly Snyder’s first book The Beauty Detox Solution and made her Glowing Green Smoothie.
I have made some changes to her recipe but the base of it is the same. I always have this every morning for breakfast. I should note I make this in my Vitamix blender, it’s really worth investing in one!
2 Cups of water
2 cups of organic Spinach
2 cups of organic Kale
4 Cups of organic Romaine Lettuce
2 stalks of organic celery
1/2 of an organic cucumber
Handful of organic Parsley and Cilantro
Blend those ingredients before adding the remaining items below:
1 organic Green Apple
1/2 Avocado
1/2 fresh squeezed lemon
Blend those ingredients, sometimes I even add a little bit of Coconut Oil, Aloe, flaxseed, etc. I mix it up! Depending on the amount I have it usually lasts me a few mornings. I pour it into separate containers (with lids), put it in my fridge, then all I have to do is grab and go.
Also, this is great if you need to stay low sugar!
