Ken's Power Green Smoothie

Green Smoothies are a staple in our household. Ken generally makes a full Vitamix container of this in the morning and we drink at least a large glass of this for breakfast (sometimes more) and also have some at other times of the day.

3 cups water

3 large (or 4 small) bananas, cut up

1 apple (cored), cut up in four

1 tbsp. pumpkin seed

1 tbsp. flax seed

4 rounded tbsp. of hemp seed (approximately ¼ cup) *

1 slice of lemon (minus seeds, but including the rind if you’re using a Vitamix blender)

3 to 4 stalks of celery, cut up in bite size pieces *

Green leafy vegetable of your choice, torn or chopped up – use small amount at first then build up to 4 cups (approximately a head of lettuce or half a bunch of kale)

2 to 4 cups of frozen fruit of your choice (berries, peaches, mangos)

Place ingredients in a Vitamix or blender and process not more than 30 seconds at a time. Running blender too long at a time heats ups unit and wears out the motor in addition to destroying the healthful enzymes that provide us with nutritional and digestive benefits.
