3 Healthy green smoothie recipes that you haven’t tried yet

Smoothies are not only super healthy, they are so easy to make. Each of these green smoothies is loaded with nutrients and vitamins that will make getting your daily fruit and vegetable intake easier than ever.

Oftentimes I will make a healthy green smoothie for my boys who are not really into vegetables and are super picky with their food. By blending up the fruits and vegetables they look at this green drink as more of a “treat” than something sneaky mom has made for them to drink.

These three smoothie recipes are full of healthy, natural ingredients that are good for your body. Each drink has its own unusual ingredients such as aloe juice, hemp seeds or flavored coconut water. Believe it or not, these little add-ins make these drinks taste even better. Use up any produce you have on hand and blend your way to health.
