I am a huge smoothie fan, I drink them everyday – usually for breakfast and lunch. I also make them regularly for Eben, who is quite smitten with my organic orange julius recipe! I love smoothies so much that last year as an anniversary gift, the mister surprised me with a Vitamix blender. I think out of all of the appliances in our home, it get used the most often! Mr. Sweet Greens also uses it to make all of his homemade salad dressings, marinades and soups.
Today, as I was making my morning smoothie – I tossed in my usual, organic yogurt, leafy greens and some sort of organic fruit. I enjoyed an organic spinach and blackberry smoothie! It made me wonder what you put in your smoothies?
Do you have a favorite fruit/vegetable combination? Do you have a power smoothie recipe that is perfect for breakfast? Is there a recipe that I absolutely should try?
P.S. Whenever I make Eben a smoothie, I toss in a heaping handful of organic greens when he isn’t looking. He loves vegetables but has told me before that he doesn’t think they belong in a fruit smoothie. Ha! If he only knew.
