Collard Green Smoothie

Banana Strawberry Collard Green Smoothie

I got this from

http://www.healthdiaries.com/eatthis/banana-strawberry-collard-green-smoothie-recipe.html

I changed it a bit, though. I put in 3 bananas and about 2 Cups of strawberries. I put in as many collard greens as I could fit in there (probably more like 3 cups). I put in ice instead of water, and I added lots of Equal. To me it would not have been sweet enough without the Equal. I used fresh strawberries, not frozen.  You might not need the ice if you use frozen berries. I always put whipped cream on top.

It is tasty and healthy...it does taste a little odd, but not bad. It just looks weird because it's so green.

Here is the recipe from that site.

Since I just wrote about green smoothies, I thought I'd give an example of an easy recipe.

I love the combination of bananas, strawberries, and collard greens. I use frozen organic strawberries. It's easy to keep frozen berries on hand so you'll always have them ready for your smoothies.

Ingredients
1 banana
1 c. water
1 c. strawberries
4 c. collard greens

Directions
Blend the banana and water. Add the strawberries and blend. Add the collards and blend until smooth.

Enjoy!
