It's Easy Being Green

Before

After. See? Easy!

Ran into a friend in the produce aisle of Askews today. She asked what I've been putting in my green smoothies these days. The usual; spinach, lamb's quarters, a few younger dandelion leaves. What else? she asks. Good question. I like to use pineapple coconut juice, about a half cup. Place the huge handful of greens into the blender with that, then a whole banana, then fill up to the 3-cup mark with water. Makes two full glasses for me and my green wife. We don't add yogurt, because whizzing up yogurt breaks its fragile bonds.
