As promised, here is a review of my first ever Green Monster smoothie!!! I used the most simple recipe from
greenmonstermovement.com called
"The Virgin Green Monster"I didn't photograph the ingredients, but here is the recipe directly from the site linked above:
Place the ingredients into the blender in the following order: 1) flax, 2) spinach, 3) banana, 4) milk
I put them in that order, plus added the ice right away. I also didn't use a regular blender, I used my magic bullet.

This was delicious! It was so delicious that I had it three nights in a row and ran out of soy milk. :-( I am sweaty and gross in this picture because I enjoyed my green monster right after an intense cardio workout on the Nordic Track!
I'm planning on incorporating a lot of these into my daily routine! They are so healthy, and besides the flax, are all Power Foods!
How do you enjoy your green monsters? Do you have a favorite combination?
