What's in your green smoothie? - Page 2

[es1967]

Just finished drinking my green smoothie. Today it was baby spinach, pear,mango, a bannana and water. I also added some E3live into it. I'm so in love w pears right now so I'm adding them in alot. I love pear w pineapple and bannana as well. Lately, since its been cold i've been doing some fruit frozen and some room temp so they are not so cold. In the summer when its hot here I tend to do mostly frozen fruit.
Other things I add depending on what I feel like having:

Hemp nuts
Dulse flakes
Goji berries
Maca
Raw Cacao

I usually add in blueberries and strawberries if I want berries. Greens I like Kale or spinach depending what I have. Ds is a little over 3 and helps me make them everyday. He has a special cup and loves them. He started drinking them when he was around 1.5 yrs old.

Spirulina and blue-green algae give green smoothies a huge energy and nutritional boost, come in powdered form, and are easily covered up (as long as you don't use too much) with bananas, mangos, blueberries etc. To cover up the color for little kids though, you would definately need blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, carrots, or small amounts of beet juice (beautiful fuschia color with small amounts).

Would saving the cooking water from cooking beets be useful at all in coloring the smoothie?
