The Green Monster

I am proud to say that I tried my first "detox" smoothie. I was pretty scared at first but then I felt a bit better after hearing about a lot of people liking it. It's safe to say that the two cups on spinach is what scared me the most.....but after the holidays I knew that I needed to get some much needed vitamins and other minerals in my body!

It only calls for ice, 2 cups of baby spinach, one banana, a cup of almond milk, and a tbsp of flaxseeds. You can also add in whatever else you want. I decided to add a cup of strawberries and half a cup of blueberries in it as well to make the fruit taste stronger.

I actually found the recipe here (also go here to see the health benefits). After trying it, I realized it wasn't bad at all! It tasted like fruit and not like spinich at all and I was easily able to drink it. If you're looking for a detox smoothie I definently recommend this one. It's safe to say I will be making many more of these in the future. Don't let the color fool you, I know the green can be a turn off but it really is yummy.
