My favourite go to smoothie because it’s light, tasty and the ingredients are easy to find
-small romaine lettuce (more nutritious than ice berg lettuce)
-at least 1 – 2 cups frozen berries (or mixed with fresh. I love to use wild blue berries! All that blueness in me:)
-to sweeten either: 2 – 3 dates, a bit of maple syrup or honey (dates are a natural sweetener – remove pips)
-add about 2 cups of water; depending on how many berries is added etc. a smoothie should be liquid but not too waterish either in consistency; if it’s not delicious tweak it
-one banana
BLEND
To take this smoothie to the next level I often add either one or all of the following for additional hair/cleansing/nutritional benefits:
-replace tap water with coconut water (so good): coconut water healed my daughter from a bladder infection (she drank two glasses every day) and it it is a great energizer!
-1 lemon (peeled of course) –I cannot gush enough about how cleansing lemon is
-teaspoon spirullina – I cannot possibly say enough on how fantastic spirullina is for hair & skin amongst others (please educate yourself – it is really worth it)
Enjoy!
