Our morning smoothie made with whatever I found in the pantry. Luckily there are plenty of fresh fruits still available. Right now we are doing fruit based smoothies in the morning and veggies all day and for our evening meals. This one was awesome, I could have stopped before the Kale, but I know how good I feel when I put greens in my smoothies I had to do it. Once you get over the color, you realize the flavor and benefits of the green smoothies, the color doesn't matter anymore. The best book to read about the benefits of "green" is Victoria Boutenko's Green for Life. She has some awesome research about why and how greens work for us starting with the animal world. Her story is awesome, she and her family were all very ill and healed themselves with the raw food lifestyle. Very inspirational lives!





The Chia is really thick after soaking......



I could have stopped here..... the color was nice.... but the greens make me feel so GOOD!!!!!!

Yes, it was green, but it gave me extreme energy all day long. I use the Flax oil for my eyes. My optometrist suggested 2 Tbs twice a day for 30 days for my dry eyes. He did the experiment and it worked for him.
