Blackberry Bursting Smoothie
2 c spinach
2 c romaine
1/2 cucumber
1 tbs flax oil
1.5 c red grapes
6oz blackberries
ice
Antioxidant PACKED! Along with the wonderful, cool hydrating effects of the cucumber, the skin-healing properties of red grapes, and the omega-rich benefits of flax oil
The blackberries actually turned this green smoothie into a beautiful burgundy!
If you have still been hesitant to try a smoothie, I recommend using blackberries or pineapple as a base – they have potent sweetness that helps to overcome “greeness.” And just start with some spinach, as it is less flavor-bursting green than Romaine and other leafies.
Have fun and give a smoothie a try!
