If you are like many other people in America you might have trouble avoiding all unhealthy foods, especially on weekends. If that's the case then here is a nice cleansing green smoothie recipe to try as a breakfast or as a healthy snack option. I feel much better when I healthy smoothies on a regular basis. They are a great addition to any healthy diet and can be made using both fruits and vegetables.

As far as veggies go, I would start off with spinach or kale and always add smaller amounts at first. Remember, you can always add more but you can never take it out in the event that you added to much. Other leafy green options are lettuce, chard, or a mix of any or all of these. Remember that green veggies are high in nutrients so don't be shy with them!

When considering fruits for your smoothie you have so many options. I usually add as many different options of fruits as I can, the more the merrier! And when my wallet allows it, I choose all natural non gmo organic ingredients.
