Today's the day!! Its my first day of my Green Smoothie Challenge. I weighed 223 lbs this morning. Everyday I will drink one quart of smoothie and I'll blog all about it. The good, the bad, and the ugly! I will get healthier, leaner and fitter this year.
Today's smoothie was:
- Basic Smoothie Starter with apple
- 1/2 c of freshly squeezed lemon juice
- a couple big squirts of Raw Organic Agave Nectar
- (2) 6oz clamshell packages of fresh raspberries.
- Ice
I was going for a Raspberry Lemonade type of flavor. My husband tried it and immediately yelled Yaaaaawhhhhhoooooo!!! Kind of like YeeHaw, but with a Yawho! It was a little tart. But I enjoyed it.
Do you know what smoothies you are making ahead of time or do you just decide based on what you have on hand?
ReplyDeleteYup--me again. You know what I love about these? I just made one based on produce I have on hand that is about to go bad. Normally, I wouldn't eat it, but tossing it in the blender and drinking it is much better for some reason!
ReplyDeleteDo you use a regular blender or a vitamix? I have a hard time not getting chunks in my regular blender.
