Green Smoothies - Jamaica Talk

For the past month, I have been trying to incorporate more fresh fruit and veggies in my diet. I have been greatly impressed with the Raw Food movement and tried green smoothies. I'm telling ya, if I never had to eat anything else raw again, I will drink this stuff once or twice a day for the rest of my life. I have more energy and I feel sooo much better than I have for a long time. I'm ready to move mountains! Here's a video that shows how to make it.

Personally, I like to freeze the bananas and then add 1 big tbsp of natural peanut butter. (Raw peanut or almond butter is preferred if u have the $$ to splurge)

Let me know if you've ever tried it or is going to, and what are/were your results.

hello all,
Hey, if you want to save yourself some time and hassle----there is an organic greens powder you can buy too. It is made by New Chapter company in the USA, called Berry Greens.

It is a whole food, cultured product that gives us 20 servings of fruit and veggies in one serving-----no sweeteners, grasses or fillers!

Check this out and it may save your mornings-----New Chapter

I just make it like a smoothie with a bit of juice, water, frozen fruit and hemp protein for a full meal deal.

I drink wheatgrass from time to time. Not really fond of drinking anything green except for appletini's.

I use my cheapo blender for the smoothies, it has'nt failed me yet. I can't afford a Vitamix yet, which can cost over $300.
