Recipe: Flax & Greens Smoothie

Welcome back! Coffee's always on around here. Pull up your favorite chair and a grab a cup. Enjoy your visit today! And don't forget to stop back by again soon.

This is a recipe of my own concoction. Can’t promise the flavor is good, but it’s not horribly bad either. One of those flavors I can live with. ;-)

Combine and mix in blender the following:

  • 1-2 teaspoons Flax Oil (I suppose you could use ground flax seed as well)
  • 1 scoop of HealthyGreens (or an equivalent product)
  • 1-2 teaspoons Fresh squeezed Lemon Juice
  • 1/4 – 1/2 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
  • 2 tablespoons MLO Vegan Brown Rice Protein Powder
  • 8-12 oz cold, purified water
  • 1/4 – 1/2 cup plain or vanilla yogurt (optional)

You can adjust to suit your taste but not much is going to make it great, I don’t think. Like I said, it’s certainly not delicious but it won’t make you puke, either. :-) At least, I hope not. If you use yogurt, I would suggest not using a flavored one – it tastes worse! Plain or vanilla is best and will tone down the taste of the HealthyGreens which can be overpowering and although tastes a bit like licorice, is not that wonderful. I think it’s the texture more than anything that makes it that way.

In any case, enjoy! Let me know if you try and what you think.
