My Go-To Green Smoothie
This green smoothie is packed with nutrients like Magnesium, healthy fats, and dietary fiber. It's also perfect to cool you off on a hot summer's day or replenish you post-workout. Give it a go!
Ingredients
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 handful spinach or kale
- small bunch cilantro
- small bunch parsley
- 1/2 avocado
- juice from 1/2 a lemon
- 1 tbsp soaked chia seeds*
- 1 c coconut milk
- water or ice to thin or thicken
directions
In a high-speed blender, combine all ingredients (except chia seed) and blend on high for 30 sec-1 min. If consistency is too thin, add ice. If consistency is too thick, add water. Pour into glass and add in soaked chia seed* Enjoy!
*Chia seed is great for digestion when soaked. They form a gel-like substance which helps "smooth" out your digestive system.
