Equipment

Ingredients

  • ½ cup spinach
  • ½ cup kale
  • 1 apple green
  • ½ cucumber peeled
  • 1 lemon
  • 1 celery stalk
  • 1 inch ginger root
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 serving homemade protein powder optional

Instructions

  • Blend spinach, kale, and water until no leafy chunks remain.
  • Add remaining ingredients, blending until smooth.

Notes

  • I like to lightly peel the lemon before adding it, to get in the white pith.
  • I leave the cucumber unpeeled as well.
  • Swap green apple for the apple of your choice.
