Purple Smoothie

From Hilary Health-Girl TV

This is quickly becoming my favorite breakfast. Looks terrifying right? It's actually really yummy, takes about 1 minute to make, and I get all the required fruit and veggies for my day first thing in the morning. Even though it ends up being a dark purple smoothie, I still categorize it as a green smoothie because of the great added greens.

Purple Smoothie
1/4 cup frozen beets (Buy fresh, peel, dice and freeze)
1/4 cup blackberries
1 carrot, trimmed with skin on
3 large kale leaves, stems removed
3/4 cup spinach
1 banana
1/4 cup cranberries
1/2 filtered water
1 tbsp agave/honey or 1-2 packets of stevia

Blend in a high-speed blender and Enjoy!
Smoothies are the best way to pack loads of raw food high in vitamins and minerals in your diet as well as aid in digestion. Salads are good too, but sometimes I'm just notjonesing for a salad.

Tip: If its not sweet enough for you, start out with fewer greens and more fruit.
