SATURDAY KICK OFF SMOOTHIE



Smoothie definition

Green smoothies are a type of health shake or smoothie, made by blending green raw leafy vegetables, such as spinach, kale, swiss chard, collard greens, celery, parsley or broccoli with fruit such as oranges, kiwis, apples, mangoes, pears, and bananas, some of which may be frozen, and water or ice.To balance flavor and nutrition the typical ratio in a green smoothie is about 60% fruit to 40% leafy greens. (Wikipedia)
