Each month at the Connection Breakfast between church services, Chef Da-Vid makes smoothies. Many enjoy them, including his latest “green” smoothie made with green plants, coconut water, yogurt and fresh spinach. His basic smoothie recipe is approximately equal proportions of five ingredients: ice cubes, 2 different juices (one of which is usually mango or coconut water), yogurt and either fruit or vegetable. Blend on low until the ice doesn’t make too much noise, then finish on high until very smooth.
Orange Smoothie: ice, banana, orange juice, mango juice, and Greek yogurt.
Green Smoothie: ice, spinach, green plant juice, coconut water, and Greek yogurt.
If you have a blender at home, be adventurous!
p.s. bottled Brazil Mango Juice and Coconut Water are both available at Costco and Green Plant is available at Trader Joe’s.
