Orange Ginger Smoothie
3/4 cup of plain yogurt or buttermilk 1 cup freshly squeezed orange juice 1 frozen banana 3/4 cup milk (regular, almond or soy)3 tb freshly grated ginger 1-2 tb of honey (depending on taste) handful of ice cubes (3-4) Add all of your ingredients into your blender and process on high until smooth. Pour into a large glass for one serving or smaller glasses for multiple servings. A Beginner’s Guide to Green SmoothiesLooking for a way to squeeze some extra raw vegetables into your diet? Green smoothies are the perfect solution!
If you’ve never had one before, it can take a little while to get acclimated to the green smoothie. Here are some tips to get you going. The Basics To get started, you’ll need something for the base of your smoothie. Bananas or avocados work really well for this. On top of that, you’ll toss your choice of fresh or frozen fruit, a few ice cubes, and your greens. Fill out the smoothie with your favorite milk (dairy or non-dairy), and you’re ready to whirl! Blend everything up really well, and enjoy! When you’re just getting started, don’t push it with the greens. I’ll explain why in the next section. Green Content The key is to increase the amount of greens over time. If you try to make your very first smoothie half greens and half fruit, you’re probably not going to enjoy it. Take things slowly, and you’re more likely to stick with it! To start, you’ll probably just want to use one leaf of kale or Swiss chard with the rib removed or a small handful of baby spinach. As your palette gets used to the greens, though, you’ll be able to reduce the fruit and up the amount of healthy greens in each serving. Before you know it, you’ll be grabbing handfuls of greens and using only a few small pieces of fruit to flesh things out. Variations Part of the fun of a green smoothie is experimenting. Try adding different types of fruit or different leafy greens. Here are some smoothie combinations I’ve really dug:

3 handfuls of spinach 1 granny smith apple 1 cucumber Fresh parsley to taste (half handful) Benefits of Spinach Everyone talks about the benefits of spinach in nourishing the eyes and building bones. What few know is that it also very good for digestion. Spinach eases constipation and protects the mucus lining of the stomach, so that you stay free of ulcers. It also flushes out toxins from the colon. Another lesser known benefit of spinach is its role in skin care. The bounty of vitamins and minerals in spinach can bring you quick relief from dry, itchy skin and lavish you with a radiant complexion. Regular consumption of fresh, organic spinach juice has been shown to improve skin health dramatically. Benefits Of Noni JuiceAuthor: John BizmanNoni Juice is very much a hot topic.

Banana Boost Juice Recipe 1 small Chiquita Banana 1 Granny Smith Apple 5 Mango Chunks (or Pineapple) 1 handful of Pomegranate Seeds (or Raspberries) 2 Full sized Carrots 2 Handfuls of Spinach 2 Celery Stalks 1 Cucumber I start by juicing the apple and mango first and then move on to the pomegranate seeds and banana. After that I juice the carrots, spinach, celery and then finally the cucumber. I typically juice cucumbers last to push out any other juices that haven’t yet made it out of the juicer. I usually offer substitutions on all my recipes but this banana boost juice recipe should be enjoyed just as it is. But if you can’t get a hold of pomegranate seeds they could be replaced with raspberries as they offer a close similarity. Juicing for Beginners
