Bottoms up!

Today I made my first "green" smoothie! Green smoothies contain fruit and vegetables. As someone who grew up thinking vegetables are yucky, these are a great way to get more veggies in my diet without having to really taste them. So following a basic recipe from one of my Pink Ribbon Cowgirls, I put some blueberries, half of a banana, a handful of spinach and a splash of coconut water in the blender and voila...a delicious, healthy drink. To be honest, I didn't believe the fruit would actually mask the taste of the spinach, but they really did. Now that I know how great these green smoothies are, I'll probably try making them with other vegetables, like kale and carrots. I'm feeling healthier already!
