I love green juice.
I say it loud and proud: I absolutely love green juice. But, I do not like juicing – too much mess and laborious. I also don’t love paying through the teeth for green juice. And so, enter my Vitamix. I embrace the fibre and thin it out with two secret weapons: water and lime juice. This Vitamin C boost helps your immune system in flu season, and is delicious. Trust me! If you need it thinner, add more water. Put it in a mason jar and shake it up,
Smoothie Ingredients

Blend all ingredients together in a blender / Vitamix. Add additional water if you want to thin it out more and sip throughout the day. Put in a mason jar to shake up as needed. Parsley is so anti-inflammatory, you won’t know what hit you – your gut will love this drink.
