Green smoothies. Look it up. Now. Seriously. GO!

My fiancee got into them a while back and ended up destroying my blender, so I bought her a new Ninja (fantastic blender by the way!) and she used to drink one of these everyday. Now, she drinks one over 2 days (both for breakfast), because she runs out of time drinking all of it.

Her recipe is roughly this:

1 cup water
1/2 cup oatmeal (depending on when she can eat next)
1 banana
1 carrot
1 apple
2 cutie mandarins (when in season)
1 tbsp milled flax seed
1-2 handfuls of frozen strawberries (roughly 1-2cups in actuality)
1/2 to 1 FULL head of romaine lettuce!

Blend it all up, and it makes around 50oz of smoothie. The taste isn't all that bad, and if it is, add some more strawberries. It is very filling and doing this, you can eat more lettuce than otherwise possible. Also, you can use fruits/veggies that are going bad and it doesn't matter. Half of the time the lettuce she uses is starting to go brown and is no longer crispy. Most people would throw it out, but throw it into a blender and you still get all of the nutrients and antioxidants.

Anyways, if you want to learn more, there are tons of websites out there for green smoothies They not only help you lose weight and eat less junk food, you get a ton of nutrients that most people don't get.
