Vegan and gluten free
Posted By Savita
Hello Friends!
Today, I have decided to keep Wednesday, lite and fit with this delicious, healthy, yet creamy green smoothie!
Trust me! This 5-ingredient smoothie will make you crave, you read it right, CRAVE smoothies for rest of the season! It is that delicious!
have you ever heard words "delicious" and "scrumptious" for smoothies? no, right? then include all those yumm words in your dictionary for this gluten free, vegan glass of heaven!
When I finished a glass of this smoothie, I felt... why has this finished, can I have some more?? then I controlled my craving for yet another day, when I will have green apple, and mint in-hand....
Plus, there is one more specialty of this smoothie, it will fill you up!! Fill you that you will not crave for evening snack (if you had this for lunch). and will energize your day if you drink it for breakfast! (I Promise!)
Also, the cooling green color of this smoothie is so so perfect for St. Partick's Day - lite and fit, clean and green, breakfast or lunch!! I'm sure your kids will love it.... I mean, look at the color... isn't it refreshing green??
I made this last Friday, and looking again at the pictures today, I wanna make it again!
Now, let's talk diet (you knew it is coming! don't you?)
This smoothie is vegan, gluten free, has one serving of fruit, about one serving of veggie and goodness of coconut milk.
Don't like coconut milk? - No problems! You can make this smoothie with buttermilk also! Just it will not be vegan if you will use dairy!
Don't like Mint? - well... mint is heart and soul of this smoothie. so please don't skip mint. In-fact, if you like mint then I have one more Green Smoothie recipe for you!!
I hope you enjoyed looking at the pictures as much as I have!
until tomorrow.... eat healthy and go green my friends! one drink at a time!
Happy Drinking (I mean smoothies) ;)
Cheers!
