Simple Green Smoothie
This is my favorite everyday green smoothie. It doesn't contain too many ingredients or any that I don't usually have on hand. While some green smoothies can be too "grassy" tasting or too sweet, this one has a perfect balance. If you are wanting something a touch sweeter, try adding a Medjool date to the mix.
