Ramp up your daily green intake

After a more dewy, youthful look this year? Toss in a few more uncooked foods and leafy greens into your weekly routine. This green smoothie recipe was inspired by a box of organic mesclun salad that I had in my refrigerator. And I highly recommend enjoying any leftover dates throughout the week with a touch of almond butter as a snack or even as a dessert!
Serving Size: 1
Ingredients
8 oz. of filtered water
a handful of baby mesclun greens
½ of a ripe avocado
3-4 pitted dates (fresh if you can find them)
a handful of ice
a handful of baby mesclun greens
½ of a ripe avocado
3-4 pitted dates (fresh if you can find them)
a handful of ice
Directions
Combine the ingredients listed above into a blender. Any blender will do, though a high power blender makes the smoothies even creamier and more delicious. Add water and ice to thin or thicken as desired. Make sure the ice is fully blended.
