    Green Smoothie

    Apr 7, 2015 · 1 Comment

    My 124th recipe, "Green Smoothie", by far the most healthy and simple recipe I have posted. I am by no means a smoothie girl. I love my milkshakes with a big dollop of icecream and lassi, especially the one made with the goodness of sweet mangoes. But that doesn't mean that I do not eat fruits. I get to eat my fruits but mostly am lazy to make it into a smoothie or juice. Until moving to US, if you would ask me what my favorite fruit was, I would say it is mango with my eyes shut. But after moving to US, I had the chance to try some juicy strawberries and kiwis. After tasting them, now I would have a tough time choosing between one of them. Whenever I have a batch of ripe kiwis, I would normally slice them into half and happily scoop the fruit out with a spoon and enjoy. However this time around, I wanted to make something more healthier using the kiwis. Especially with the summer approaching, something which helps to cool down our bodies would be an added bonus. So I tried making a smoothie out of the kiwis and making to more healthier by adding other greens. This green smoothie was perfectly creamy, sweet, tangy, extremely delicious and way more healthier. A true winner on all fronts 😉
