As we all know, healthy eating means, among other things, we should significantly increase our intake of green vegetables. Why? Because they are high in fiber, antioxidants and rich in nutrients such as vitamins A and K – things that our bodies need.
Its also much more interesting to have a variety of ways to prepare breakfast, and green smoothies make that much easier. Of course green smoothies are not only a quick & easy start to the day, but a healthy green smoothie also works well for lunch, or just as a refreshing snack.
Here’s a super healthy, very low calorie breakfast smoothie recipe from Marie (at NotEnoughCinnamon.com) where she shares a favorite that you’ll surely enjoy – with an amazing kick start ingredients like spinach, apple, and more.. Must try!!

But before that, here’s Marie explaining green smoothies so simply …
A green smoothie is basically any smoothie made with some kind of green like spinach or kale. In this one, I added spinach, kale, celery and cucumber!
And to be sure it tastes good and not like a liquid salad, I’ve added a few fruits + a hint of ginger and the result is yummy!
…drinking a green smoothie for breakfast is a good way to make sure you reach your daily veggie intake and it makes you start the day on the right foot.
