Cold Rescue - Green Smoothie Recipe





















This is a combination of a couple of recipes I found online and just using what I had at home.
I was all sniffly, sneezie and congested and I wanted a green smoothie to help my body fight off whatever was attacking.
This did the trick.

It was soothing and I knew that all of the goodness in these ingredients would be hard at work fighting evil!

Cold Rescue Green Smoothie

1 Ripe banana
2-3 handfuls of frozen green grapes
2 large kale leaves, with the stems
2 handfuls of butter lettuce (or any other leafy green you like)
Finely grated fresh ginger to taste (ginger is strong so start with a little and build up)
Just enough water to make your blender work

Blend it all until smooth and pour it in a pretty, colorful cup to lift your spirits!

Juice Recipe - Valentine's Fruit Punch

A happy accident...

Last Valentine's Day Steve whipped up this random juice.
We simply used what felt good and what we had in the fridge.

The result tasted like sweet fruit punch and was very pretty.
The perfect color for Valentine's Day.

This recipe makes a lot...
about 4 large glasses to share!

Valentine's Fruit Punch
1-2 heads of romaine lettuce
1 lemon
3 red beets
5 or 6 apples
1 pear
1 inch of ginger
half a cabbage (we used napa)
half a cantaloupe

wash well and then run all through a juicer...

Pour and enjoy!

Let me know what you think.

Juice Recipe - Tropical Sunrise

.....mmmmm

Steve whipped this refreshing juice up one morning
just pulling from what we had in the house

The color was amazing...it almost glowed!

One sip and I was transported to a sandy beach on a lush island...
all that was missing was a fancy glass and an umbrella.

It was sweet and  tropical...
it sort of had a Pina Colada flavor.

I have an allergy to pineapple, so discovering a tropical flavor like this (without pineapple) was a treat for me.

Tropical Sunrise Juice

6 Carrots
2 Apples
1 Pear
1/2  Cantaloupe
1/8 Watermelon
1 inch of fresh ginger

Run all the goodies through a juicer.
Pour and enjoy!
