Remember the Grains of Paradise style apple spinach smoothie I made for breakfast? I tried it this time with an orange and it was really good.
Orange Almond Smoothie
2 WW points per entire smoothie
Organic Ingredients
1 carrot, chopped
1 rib celery, chopped
1 handful baby spinach
1 handful kale, chopped
1 orange, peeled and chopped
1 cup unsweetened almond milk (the vanilla goes nicely with this)
2 packets Stevia
1/3 cup filtered water
Directions
1. Blend all ingredients until smooth.
To round this breakfast out, for some added protein, I added a hard boiled egg white with a teensy bit of yolk left for taste and a sprinkling of Tony Chachere’s Cajun seasoning.
I love unsweetened almond milk. I really prefer it over regular milk now!
I need to get another blender so I can make green smoothies again! Sigh!
yum
I have yet to try those monster green shakes.
I guess my greens usually have to crunch for me
to appreciate them. But since the shakes/smoothies
seem so popular, I'm beginning to wonder what I'm
missing.
I can’t say it’s my most favorite thing ever but it sure is a good way to pack in the veggies for a low cal breakfast. What I like best about it is how cleansing it is.
