Three *NEW* Green Smoothie Recipes

GreenSmoothie

The Green Smoothie Revolution will not be televised. We launched a 30 day challenge on Feb 1st, 2011, but you can start your green smoothie challenge at any time. The challenge is simple. You don’t have to diet. You don’t have to take anything out of your daily diet. Just add a green smoothie to your day. It can’t hurt to add additional nutrients to your daily intake. Nutrient dense foods can help combat a myriad of diseases, help boost the immune system and help your body achieve better health in more natural way.

Enough talk… Let’s get to blending. Here are a few recipes that will help you get started.
