Crave-worthy Detox Smoothie!
Green Pineapple Dream | yield: 2 servings
Green smoothies are my favorite go-to healthy breakfast. Tasty and filled with energy-boosting nutrients, you won't deplete your willpower whipping up one of these beauties!Green cilantro is anti-inflammatory, cholesterol-lowering, and binds with toxins so your body can release them. (if you're not a fan of cilantro, swap it for basil or parsley, which are also fabulous!)
Tropical pineapple is also anti-inflammatory, a good source of Vitamin D, and contains Manganese and Bromelain, a wonderful digestion-boosting enzyme.
What to put in your blender:
- 1 1/2 cups fresh bok choy or spinach (organic, please)
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 cup water, unsweetened coconut water, or unsweetened almond milk
- 1 cup pineapple, fresh or frozen
- 1/4 avocado for creamy, green, healthy fats
- 20 + grams of clean & lean protein (I use this protein powder here to help keep me satisfied all morning)
What to do (AKA directions):
- Combine the greens, cilantro and water together and blend until smooth.
- Add remaining ingredients and blend again until smooth! Pour, sip and ahhhh!
