After only a week with my Vita-Mix blender, I am becoming quite adventurous with what I put into my green breakfast smoothie. If sweet fruit can cover up the bitterness of kale and cabbage, why not throw a few other veggies in too? This is a great way to use up leftover raw or steamed vegetables from other recipes. Ingredients:
1/4 cup butternut squash, steamed |
1/2 cup zucchini or 1/2 cup summer squash |
1/2 cup cucumber |
1/2 cup kale, roughly chopped |
1/2 cup cantaloupe |
1/4 cup raspberries |
1/4 cup pomegranate seeds |
1/4 cup banana, frozen |
1/2 kiwi |
1 tablespoon old fashioned oats |
1 whole almond |
1 stevia, packet |
1/2 cup cold water |
4 ice cubes |
Directions:
1. Add ingredients as listed. 2. Turn on Vita-Mix or other high-powered blender at Variable speed 1 and quickly increase to Variable speed 10. 3. Switch to High and blend for 30 seconds to 1 minute, until smooth. 4. Enjoy! |
