Green Smoothies
Recipes below. A couple of basics: vary your greens, so you don’t O.D. on too much oxalic acid in spinach, for instance. All plants have protective devices so its necessary to rotate with kale, parsley, romaine lettuce, chard, and so on. Too thick? Add more water or coconut water for electrolytes. For convenience and cost savings, organic frozen fruit is a great option. Freeze bananas that are getting too soft, to add to future smoothies. Add ripe avocados for delectable smoothness.
