Fantastic Smoothie


Edible Adventures is on the road.  I am currently visiting my brother and his family.  His wife, Kristen, makes the most yummy smoothie in the morning.

The good news is that it is truly delicious - the bad news is that there really isn't a recipe for it.

So for those of you that like to experiment and don't usually follow a recipe - this will be a fun one to try.

I watched her make it yesterday.  This is an approximation of the smoothie I have been enjoying in the morning.

Kristen's Morning Smoothie

Fill a Vita-Mix Blender with the following:

  • coconut water
  • almond milk
  • organic greens
  • baby carrots
  • tons of berries - all sorts
  • apple, pear, or kiwi optional
  • slice of organic lemon with peel
  • scoop of coconut oil
  • scoop of chia seed
  • scoop of flax seed
  • scoop of vegan protein powder - soy free
  • scoop of maca powder

Blend it all up until it is smooth.  She varies is every morning - so that it never tastes quite the same.

My brother says he misses the morning smoothie when he is traveling.
