Vegie Smoothies

Farmers’ Market vegies means a summer of vegie smoothies. They are a great breakfast, lunch or snack to go. In our kitchen we use whatever happens to be in the fridge.

In the picture above I used broccoli, carrots, banana and melon. Add a bit of honey and almond butter if you like. Fresh mint or a bit of lemon juice could have been added as well. Puree, chill, and enjoy a great tasting light green, vegie smoothie.

Today I tried fresh red beets, carrots, cantaloupe with an orange. Add a bit of coconut milk and puree. Chill and keep the entire pitcher in the fridge. Enjoy. The color here is beet red. You could substitute strawberries, an apple or a pear for the orange.

Any way you slice it – it’s refreshing, it’s easy, no cooking, uses local produce, it’s cool, it’s delicious and it’s healthy.
