Introduction

So, I like to experiment with smoothies and this one tasted really yummy, so I thought I'd share. Even my colleague and her lovely 11-year-old daughter loved it!

Number of Servings: 1

Ingredients

    * 1 cup unsweetened natural orange juice (I like the one with pulp)
    * 1/3 cup chopped spinach - FRESH not frozen
    * .5 cup Natura Soy Beverage - Vanilla or Strawberry
    * 20 Blueberries
    * 1 tsp Whole Psyllium Husk
    * 1 tsp ground Flax Seed

Directions

I have a "Magic Bullet" type blender and use it for this recipe

* In your blending cup, put all the ingredients, saving the soy milk for last as it curdles slightly when it hits the orange juice.

* Blend on high until it reaches desired consistently. I like it a teeny tiny bit chunky, but experiment to see what works for you.

**** Note - please be sure to wash the spinach properly - sometimes it has grit in it! ****

Enjoy it! I did again this morning! :)
