I just found this awesome set of 27 of the best green smoothie recipes – brilliant for breakfast and/or lunch! The author doesn’t detail how these work for you, but she shares a TON of healthy weight loss and other green smoothie recipes. (See “Good for Weight Loss” recipe below)
There’s also a wealth of info in the individual recipes she links you to. I found some great new ideas for my own smoothie recipes.
Here’s how the author – Eliza Martinez (allwomenstalk.com) – introduces her list:
Green smoothies are super easy to make and really healthy to drink. They often get their color from leafy green veggies, but the fruit masks the bitter taste of them. They load you up on nutrients and taste really wonderful. What more could you ask for in the morning?
Below, I’ve made it easy for your see the whole set at a glance to save you wading through each recipe page by page.

Thanks to Laura Machell (of TheGreenForks.com) for the comments, recipe and variations below ...
Green smoothies are where it’s at, I’m tellin’ ya. I fully believe that my new morning ritual is 99% responsible for the success of my diet. I’m talking about my increased energy, the clearer skin, an improved mood, and a metabolism that just won’t quit.
…
That is why I find my green smoothies more addictive than coffee – because the results are so phenomenal that you don’t want to give them up.
Ingredients
1 cup Water
½ cup chopped Cucumber
1 cup Strawberries (preferably frozen)
1 Banana, optional (preferably frozen)
1 Apple, cored
2 tightly packed cups Spinach
juice of ½ Lemon
Optional: Ice – if not using frozen fruit and you want your smoothie chilled
Instructions
Pack everything into your blender and let it run until it is smooth!
Notes
For a smoothie lower in calories and sugar, omit one of the fruit servings and add some stevia/xylitol if you need added sweetness.
Add 1 tablespoon of Chia Seeds or milled Flax Seeds for a serving of healthy fats. And 1 cup low fat Yogurt or Cottage Cheese for a protein boost.
Smart Substitutions: If you want to go real low-cal, low-sugar with this smoothie, you can easily forget the banana. I’ve been doing that lately and then just adding some stevia in its place. That way if the lunch smoothie I am making later in the day has a banana in it, I don’t double up on my banana consumption for the day.
