St Patty’s Day Green Smoothie

March 17, 2017 by Alex Daynes

Happy St Patricks day everybody! I hope everyone is celebrating and wearing green today! If you don’t have anything green to wear, it’s your lucky day! I have created the perfect St Patty’s Day Green Smoothie for you! Eating green leafy vegetables twice a day is so good for your body and your health! You can always feel good about what you’re eating when you are eating green!

Eating green vegetables helps to add fiber and protein to your diet. It also helps with digestion, energy levels, and gives you the vitamins and minerals needed for overall health! Sometimes it is hard to get the amount of green vegetables your body needs in a day, that is why I love adding them to my smoothies! It makes them easier to eat, tastes great, and you hardly know that it is in there!

Another great “eat green” recipe I have for you to make is my Homemade Veggie Tray with Spinach Veggie Dip! So good, so green, and super good for you! Celebrate this green day by eating green!

🍀 St Patty’s Day Green Smoothie Recipe 🍀

1 cup apple juice (optional: water)
2 cups spinach
1 cup kale
1 green apple
1 cup pineapple (fresh or frozen)
1 cup mango (frozen)
1/2 banana
1 kiwi
1/4 cucumber
1/2 cup broccoli
1/2 cup carrots
1 cup ice
(water if needed)

I start by blending together my apple juice and my spinach and kale to make sure the spinach and kale is blended down well. Then, I add everything else, the apple, pineapple, mango, banana, kiwi, broccoli, carrots and ice and blend until smooth! Add additional water depending on how thick you like your smoothies!💚

DOT PROTEIN BITES My take on the viral nonpareil DOT PROTEIN BITES 

My take on the viral nonpareils dot cake trend I’ve been seeing around! Here’s how to make them! 

2 cups old fashioned oats
12 ounces cashew butter
1/2 cup honey 
2 servings cake batter protein powder @cleansimpleeats 
1/2 teaspoon salt 
1/2 teaspoon vanilla 
1/2 teaspoon almond extract

Roll the protein bites into balls, press each ball into the sprinkles to create a crunchy topping, and refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy!
