You’ve heard that an apple a day keeps the doctor away, well let’s translate that to a smoothie a day keeps the doctor away!
Susan at SimpleHealthyKitchen reminded me that we get different nutrients from different colored foods. So remember it’s healthy to eat a wide variety of foods, cooked and raw, to get the best from your diet.
Susan has a rainbow of healthy smoothies, and she says …
O.K. call me crazy, but it makes me really happy to see my refrigerator (and fruit bowl) filled with really colorful fruits and veggies. The more colors, the happier I am. While I like to pile the different colorful fruits and vegetable together on things like salads, I am a more of a purist when it comes to my smoothies (and juices).
I’ve chosen her “White” smoothie today (and we’ll come back with more), so turn to the Next Page for the recipe …
