I've been making this green smoothie for a while now and it's amazing first thing in the morning. It feels healthy and gets you on the right foot to make good food decisions for the rest of the day. It comes from Gwenyth Paltrow's book "It's All Good" and it's pretty easy to make. I would recommend a strong blender due to the fact that the ingredients are quite hearty; another option is to use a juicer. Kale is in season at the moment, so see if you can get a nice big organic bunch from your local health food store. You can eat it fresh or freeze it until you need it.
Gwenyth's Green Smoothie
(Serves 2 medium or 1 large)
Ingredients:
A couple of handfuls of kale
1 apple
1 hunk of ginger (about 1 inch, or to taste)
A few mint leaves
One whole lemon, peeled
A few cups of filtered water (to cover the ingredients)
A few cubes of ice (optional)
Method:
Place all items in blender (except ice) and blend on high until all items are blended. Add ice and pulse until incorporated.
Drink and then feel smug about being one of those people that drinks green smoothies (and likes them)!
Enjoy!
