I recently came across an article (in womenshealthmag.com) which posed the question…”Is THIS the Hot New Green Smoothie? Kale, meets arch nemesis ...” It’s based on a new product launched by the Juice Club in UK. I’ve included the recipe & “how to make at home” instructions below.
Instead of having breakfast, make this drink in the morning as part of your diet. It keeps you full, it boosts your energy and mood. It makes a difference to your vital force when you have these nutrients regularly.
When you see this, you’ll come up with some great new ideas for your own smoothie recipes. Check out the recipe below and let me know what you think.
Attention, juicers!
Introducing the next hot thing you’ll want to throw into your blender:
Brussels sprouts
(The main ingredients in a new health juice launched by the U.K.’s Juice Club.)
The nutritional benefits of Brussels sprouts are no joke—especially compared to popular greens like kale and spinach…
One cup of raw Brussels sprouts packs more fiber and iron—which help strengthen muscles—than either super green.
Recipe: Classic Green Smoothie
Note: This is an example, based on a classic green smoothie recipe. Alternatively, just use your favorite smoothie recipe and substitute your go-to green for Brussels sprouts.
Ingredients (Serves 1-2 cups;
1 Cup Almond Milk

1 Handful Brussels Sprouts
1 peeled, frozen ripe Banana

For an extra flavor kick, you can also include pears, cinnamon, apples, and cranberries.
Another variation: Mix kale, spinach, and Brussels sprouts for a super-charged drink.
Preparation:

blend until smooth
Add in your ice cubes and blend some more
