This one’s for all of you smoothie lovers. I always say that a perfect way to start your day is with whole vegetables and fruit and that’s exactly what this recipe calls for. You can literally alter the ingredients depending on what your favorite fruit and leafy greens are. Just let your taste buds take the reins!
Quick Health Tip: Find ways to incorporate vegetables in the a.m. Whole plant foods are truly unprecedented in their phytonutrient content, which is key in thwarting off free radicals and in diminishing inflammation; both of which are important in preventing chronic disease.
