If you don't like the colour green of the green smoothies then this is the way to go.
This smoothie does not turn out green but it has a lot of fresh greens inside.

As always, buy organic :-)
​
This recipe makes 2 liters smoothie. If you have a smaller blender can just add water to fill and you will get a thicker smoothie.

Recipe:
  • 300g purslane (or any other leafy greens);
  • 300g (frozen) strawberries (they are not in season right now but of course, fresh is best);
  • 1 big fat red paprika
(basis)
When you choose to make this smoothie from only fresh ingredients you'll add:
  • 1 lemon - peeled;
  • 1 orange - peeled;
  • 1 cm piece fresh ginger;
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon powder.
Add water to fill your blender can.
Optional, essential oils:
  • pepermint
  • grapefruit
  • clove
  • lemon
If you have less time for peeling and cutting you can make the same basis smoothie (first 3 ingredients) and add just one drop of each essential oil.
And if you have even less time or patience you can make the smoothie basis and just add a DöTerra essential oils blend, Slim and Sassy.
This smoothie has a lot of aroma but is quite sour. If you want it sweeter either add two bananas or a bit of (raw, organic) honey. 
Also don't forget: 
always taste the smoothie before you put it in your containers and wash your blender. Adjust to taste. 
The best green smoothie is the one you drink. ;-)

Always keep en drink your smoothies from glass containers.

​Just a little note about the essential oils: NOT all essential oils are created equal.. :-)

I chose to work with DoTerra essential oils after years of research and experiments with all kinds of names or no-names EO. These oils are the most pure and powerful that I've ever tried and tested and that is why I dare to use them in my smoothie. That is also why I dare to recommend them to you. :-)
​

​ONE drop of doTERRA essential oils is potent and goes a long way so use them sparingly and with care. The doTERRA Essential Oils are CPTG (Certified, Pure, Therapeutic, Grade), which means they are 100% natural, pure, and potent, with no additives.
