A REFRESHING DELICIOUS PICKING FROM THE GARDEN DETOXIFYING SMOOTHIE
Something a little different for me, this picking from the garden detoxifying smoothie incorporates some vibrant fresh veggies I’ve taken from my garden, including spinach, flat leaf parsley, beetroot, lemon and ginger, and then mixed with some of my favourite superfoods from my superfood pantry, Beetroot Powder for its vibrant colour and goodness, Red Grape Skin Powder for its phytonutrients and Maca, an adaptogen, to make a fresh detoxifying smoothie. No dairy, no alternative milks, no gluten or soy….. It’s a goodie!!!
1 good handful of spinach
1 handful of Italian flat leaf parsley
1 tbsp. Beetroot Powder
½ pear /or apple
1 banana
1 good thumbnail of fresh ginger
1 glass water
1 tbsp. Organic Lucuma Powder
1 tbsp. Organic Maca powder (if you have not tried maca before try 1 tsp first or substitute with Organic Sacha Inchi Protein Powder)
1 tsp. Organic Red Grape Skin Powder
Juice of ½ lemon plus some rind
Place all ingredients in blender and blitz to a consistency of your taste. The cinnamon is a warming stimulant traditionally used for digestive ailments. Beetroot detoxifies and spinach is a vegetable hero. Makes a very generous serving for one (could be for 2).
