SUPER Green Smoothie

Most my smoothies are just frozen blueberries and banana. I tried to switch it up a bit, using Dr. Oz cleansing green smoothie drink as inspiration. It wasn't bad! 
Give it a try for a good, 'cleansin' start to your day!


1 large handful of spinach leaves
1/2 Cucumber
2 sticks of celery (rinsed) (don't cut the leaves off!)
1 Green Apple
1/2-1 C Chopped Pineapple (frozen pineapple is ideal)
small handful of ice
1 scoop of Raw Protein Powder (or whatever protein you like)
Feel free to add some honey or a couple dates for more sweetness.

Put all ingredients in vitamix and enjoy!

Immunity Juice

I have wanted a juicer for awhile, but when I discovered you can juice with a vita-mix (or blender) I couldn't wait to try it out! Juice is so good for you! Especially juice with NO added sugar - something I can be happy to serve my kiddos. 
Read Here for more.

All you need is a nut milk bag. You can buy these HERE on Amazon, but to be honest it was just a nylon bag, I feel like I could have made it or something. But you do need something very fine to get all that liquid out and no pulp!


2 Carrots
1 Stalk Celery
2 Green Apples
2 Oranges peeled (optional to leave a tiny bit of pulp on)
1 C water

Place all items in blender. Blend until fine. Place in Nut milk bag over a bowl.


 Start to squeeze, squeeze, squeeze.

 Enjoy
