Midday Surprise Spinach, Strawberry and Blood Orange Smoothie
Posted By Savita
Midday Smoothie is my favorite way to replenish body with 5 servings of raw fruit and veggies in a day and that too as a delicious glass full. I love eating raw veggies and salads, but these blended smoothies makes it even more easy to enjoy vitamin and anti-oxidants packed day.
Today, I used spinach for this smoothie, but, I often use Kale or Mustard Greens too. Greens blend very well with raw tart and sweet fruits. You will not even realize that you had a good serving of veggies.
I strongly recommend using Blood Orange and Acai powder for this smoothie. Both add to the color and taste of this smoothie at the same time.
A perfect smoothie for lunch - One glass of this smoothie at mid-day will surely keep the doctor away.
